What is the ACE Act and why is it so dangerous for democracy?
🗽The freedom to vote is a fundamental right
Hey there! I am not sure you heard, but radical republicans in Congress are at it again trying to subvert the election process.
Extremists in Congress are using the boogeyman of “voter fraud” to justify legislation making it harder for millions of eligible Americans to vote.
Did you know last month in a subcommittee they voted to zero out funding for election infrastructure? And yesterday they introduced the BIG LIE BILL. The #BigLieBill would sell out our elections to mega donors and special interests while lowering transparency and reporting standards. The ACE Act would disenfranchise millions of voting by enacting restrictive anti-voter policies that have a disproportionate impact on Black, Indigenous, young and new American voters. The ACE Act is an anti-voter bill that will disenfranchise voters and boost the influence of billionaires and corporations in our elections.
We need the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act to shine a light on secret money so we can know who is funding our elections. We also need to invest more into the local and state level to ensure elections are resilient, secure, and accessible to all voters. Here are four easy-to-do actions you can take to help voting rights and our freedoms:
Can you please take 1 (one) minute and send a message to your member of Congress and ask them to support the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and say no to the BIG LIE BILL?
