Today’s Action: Guarantee the RIGHT to vote!

Ten months from this week, every district in America will go to the polls to decide who will represent them in the next Congress. But millions of American adults will be denied their right to vote.

That’s because some states deny people the right to vote because of a past conviction even after they have served out their served their sentences. In Florida alone, 1.6 million Floridians have had their voting rights taken from them — one in 10 adults.

Now, we have a chance to change this un-American, partisan political attack on our fellow citizens’ rights.

The good people at StayWoke and OurStates.org have led an effort to get voter rights restoration on Florida ballots this year, and they are very close to getting the signatures they need by the February 1 deadline.

Let’s help them get over the top. Here’s what you can do:

Every American deserves the right to have a say in their government — especially those who have paid their assigned debt to society. That right is being denied to far too many of us, and this is our chance to do something about it. But we have to act fast.

Help guarantee the right to vote today.
