Voting Rights Now

[angrychair]

I beg everyone reading to this: make the John Lewis Voting Rights Act the only thing that matters.

Without voting rights nothing else matters. Republicans have gerrymandered districts so dramatically that we will permanently lose the majority in the House. That isn't an exaggeration. Its not hyperbolic. Its very real.

There is no way to organize or rally out of that. We are permanently screwed starting in 2022.

Please, I beg you, call your House and Senate members of Congress, flood the lines, demand action. We won't get a second chance.

1. Agree! There are legal challenges going on, and many parts of those laws will be struck down

But...we really really need a voting rights bill!!

4. Our principles should be stronger than lines redrawn

When most rational and thoughtful folks are given a unbiased choice between our policies and theirs, ours will win out. History arcs progressive and honest leaders with positive outcomes will win elections over those promoting only misery and pain. Seems like many don't trust Democratic messaging and candidates to overcome dirty redistricting tricks. Have more trust my friends!

5. Its not a "redistricting trick"

They are creating republican seats in the House. Its not a "trick".
Republicans don't care about Democratic policies or bills, they exist to proliferate hate, racism, misogyny and bigotry.
