| Lewis, since the 2020 election, Donald Trump's Big Lie has inspired nearly half of all states to pass dozens of new voter suppression laws. But now, Republicans in key states are working to restrict ballot access even further. As long as Republicans are committed to using the myth of voter fraud as a pretense to attack voting rights, we must be just as committed to fighting back. Will you pitch in to support the NDRC's work? | If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | | | | | | | | | | | Looking at what the GOP is doing across the country, it's easy to see that A.G. Holder is 100% right, Lewis: → After passing legislation restricting vote-by-mail and limiting dropbox access in 2021, Florida Republicans are working to make absentee voting even harder before 2024.
→ Virginia's GOP Governor Glenn Youngkin reinstated a lifetime ban on voting for anyone with a prior felony conviction. The policy, which originally dates back to 1902, is one of the harshest policies in the country and will likely have a disproportionate impact on voters of color.
→ Earlier this year, Ohio Republicans passed strict new requirements for in-person voting. Now, in a move commentators say "slap[s] voters in the face," the legislature is working to make it harder for voters to approve protections for abortion rights by changing the rules for amending the state constitution.
Republicans aren't backing down in their attacks on voting rights, so we can't back down in our fight to protect ballot access and strengthen democracy. Can we count on you to pitch in?
