Tell Congress: Take REAL Action for Voting Rights
Speaker Mike Johnson and Congressional Republicans
When President Biden paid tribute to the late civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis during his State of the Union address, Speaker Mike Johnson stood up and clapped.
But right now, Speaker Johnson is blocking legislation to follow through on Rep. Lewis's life’s work of protecting the right to vote for all. That’s why President Biden called for action in his address:
"John Lewis was a great friend to many of us here. But if you truly want to honor him and all the heroes who marched with him, then it’s time for more than just talk.
Pass and send me the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Act!"
If you agree it’s time for more than just talk, sign the petition to tell Speaker Johnson and Congressional Republicans to pass these crucial federal voter protections.

Speaker Mike Johnson applauded President Biden's remarks honoring the late civil rights icon Rep. John Lewis. But now, he needs to back it up with real ACTION.
To truly honor the legacy of Rep. John Lewis and other civil rights heroes, Congress must pass the Freedom to Vote Act and John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
These crucial pieces of legislation would ensure EVERY voter can make their voice heard in our democracy.
