The Voting Rights Act was won through courageous organizing, sacrifice, and disciplined nonviolence, but its promise remains unfinished. Voting protections have been weakened, and barriers continue to threaten the voices of eligible voters. Congress must act with urgency to restore the Voting Rights Act, strengthen protections against discrimination, and...

Sixty-one years ago today, nonviolent foot soldiers seeking the fundamental right to vote crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama and were met with brutal, state-sanctioned violence. What became known as Bloody Sunday shocked the conscience of the nation and exposed the cruelty of voter suppression. The courage and discipline of those marchers, who remained committed to nonviolence even in the face of brutality, helped shift public opinion and led to the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Today, many of the protections that once safeguarded voters from racial discrimination have been weakened, and the work of protecting the right to vote remains unfinished. Remember the sacrifice of those who marched. Honor their courage through action. Continue the work of protecting the right to vote for every person. Contact your members of Congress and urge them to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. #TheKingCenter #MLK #BloodySunday #VotingRights #JohnLewisVRAA

The US Supreme Court gutted the federal Voting Rights Act in the recent Callais decision. In Michigan, we’re fighting to create a state-level Voting Rights Act to enshrine those protections. Find your State Representative at and ask them to pass the Michigan Voting Rights Act.

The Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act this week. 60 years of progress — rolled back. This won't be the last word. I'm fighting alongside House Democrats to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act and restore these protections.

I signed the John R. Lewis Voter Empowerment Act to safeguard our democracy and fight back against the latest attacks on our voting rights. In New Jersey, we will continue carrying the legacy and work of John Lewis forward through stronger protections of your rights and representation.

The Supreme Court's recent decision on the Voting Rights Act is supercharging President Trump's effort to redraw districts and try to create a permanent Republican majority. We must ban partisan gerrymandering and restore the Voting Rights Act.

This Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act, opening the door to more racial gerrymandering. This is unacceptable, and Congress must act to protect it. If the Court won’t protect one of our most fundamental rights, we need a new Voting Rights Act strong enough to stop politicians from picking their voters and silencing communities of color.

The gutting of the Voting Rights Act is a deliberate attempt to undermine Black voting power. It’s infuriating and wrong. We must show up strong in November to take back the House, stop the SAVE Act and instead, finally pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.

On National Voter Registration Day, Daddy’s words still challenge us. The right to vote was never meant to be taken for granted. It was fought for, protected through sacrifice, and must be exercised with purpose. Check your registration. Make a plan. Help someone else do the same. #NationalVoterRegistrationDay #VotingRights #MLK #ProtectTheVote

My mother warned decades ago that voting discrimination was not a relic of the past, and today her words still ring with painful clarity. What she understood then is what we are still confronting now: when voting rights are weakened, democracy itself is diminished. The methods may evolve, but the intent to silence, dilute, and discourage remains. As we face renewed efforts that chip away at the protections so many fought to secure, may we listen carefully to her witness and recommit ourselves to defending the heart and soul of democracy. #CorettaScottKing #MLK #VotingRights #BelovedCommunity #Nonviolence365

The Supreme Court has weakened key voting rights protections. The Michigan Voting Rights Act would put those protections back in place at the state level. If the fall of Roe taught us anything, it’s that our rights are under attack. And we need to fight for them. In Michigan, we are.

As Trump works to suppress the vote and gut the Voting Rights Act, it’s important to remember that there was a time when Republicans supported the Voting Rights and Civil Rights Act. But that’s gone—now Trump controls everything in MAGA, a movement that operates more like a cult.

Donald Trump and his MAGA co-conspirators are trying to rig California’s elections. They gutted the Voting Rights Act and now they are coming for us with Prop 39. Adam Schiff and I will continue fighting to protect the right to vote. Vote NO on Prop 39 to protect the votes of all California voters who want their voices heard.

On Bloody Sunday, marchers in Selma were beaten and tear-gassed—just for demanding the right to vote. Their sacrifice led to the Voting Rights Act, but today, those rights are under attack again. We must honor their fight by continuing it. #GoodTrouble 🎥: The Leadership Conference
