Today, the U.S. Appeals Court for the 8th Circuit issued a decision that, if allowed to stand, will further gut the Voting Rights Act. The ruling issued would effectively rob individuals of their power and right to sue states and municipalities under the Voting Rights Act.
A federal appeals court has issued a ruling that could gut the Voting Rights Act, severely curtailing enforcement of the landmark civil rights law. politico.com/news/2023/11/20…

In the eight years since Shelby County was decided, states have
taken significant steps toward suppressing the vote. #HR4 would restore the full strength of the Voting Rights Act and make the promise of democracy real for us all.

Tmrw is the 58th anniversary of the #MarchOnWashington. We remember the hard-fought victories it secured, e.g. the Voting Rights Act of 1965. H.R.4 honors that legacy by restoring the VRA’s strength to once again protect the vote for all American citizens.

It’s been 58 years since the #MarchOnWashington, and we’re now fighting Jim Crow 2.0.
We may not be counting Jellybeans in a jar, but the goal is STILL to restrict access to the ballot box.
It’s time to pass BOTH #HR1 and #HR4 and put a STOP to voter suppression.
Congressional Voting Rights Caucus retweeted
Nearly six decades after the #MarchonWashington, we must honor those who marched, fought, and bled for the right to vote by passing BOTH #HR1 and #HR4.
These bills will ensure that every voter has free and fair access to the ballot box, no matter their race or ZIP code.

Tomorrow marks 58 years since the #MarchonWashington, one of the largest protests in American history. Over 200,000 people gathered in front of the Lincoln Memorial to address the continuing inequalities faced by African Americans a century after emancipation.

Nearly 60 years after the #MarchOnWashington, Americans are still fighting discrimination and voter suppression. EVERYONE deserves equal access to the ballot box. It is time send both #HR1 and #HR4 to @POTUS’s desk.

It’s been 58 years since the first #MarchonWashington. The fight for racial equality will live on until we reject every unjust rule and institution designed to oppress our brothers, sisters and siblings in spirit.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream. 58 years after the #MarchOnWashington, it’s past time to make that dream a reality.
Everyone deserves free & fair access to the ballot box. @HouseDemocrats have passed #HR1 & #HR4 to #RestoreTheVote – it’s time for the Senate to act.
Congressional Voting Rights Caucus retweeted
Tomorrow is the anniversary of the #MarchOnWashington — and while many point to MLK’s dream — it’s impossible to reach unless every American has equal access to the ballot box and our Democracy.
Let’s honor our progress by sending #HR1 and #HR4 to the President’s desk.

As we near the 58th anniversary of the #MarchOnWashington, we are reminded of the civil rights leaders who fought and died to protect the sacred right to vote.
We ought to honor and continue their legacy with the passage of both HR 4 and HR 1 #ForThePeople.
Congressional Voting Rights Caucus retweeted
On the 58th anniversary of the #MarchOnWashington, we must re-commit ourselves to protecting #VotingRights in our country. Passing BOTH #HR1 and #HR4 will ensure that everyone has free and fair access to the ballot box.
Period.

Yesterday, near the eve of the 58th anniversary of the #MarchOnWashington, the #TXLege began debate on #SB1, the dangerous #votersuppression bill that will silence communities across Texas.
We must fight like the Civil Rights leaders before us to #RestoreTheVote
