12 years ago this week, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act in Shelby v. Holder, ending preclearance protections. Since then, efforts to restrict voting access have only accelerated — especially in communities long targeted by discrimination. #RestoreTheVote

Thousands of formerly incarcerated Minnesotans cast ballots after law restored their right to vote Groups sent more than 90,000 mailers, made nearly 8,000 phone calls and knocked on more than 5,000 doors to spread the word about the law.

🗳️ No matter our background, every Minnesotan deserves an equal say in our democracy. That’s why we came together in 2023 to #RestoreTheVote in our state. We’re so excited that more than 6,000 newly eligible voters cast their ballots last year! 🎉

This has never been more relevant.

Across the nation, extremists are attacking our democracy by making it harder for Americans to vote.

I’m backing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to stop restrictive voting laws from taking effect.

It's been 60 years since hundreds of marchers were attacked in Selma, Alabama while demonstrating for the right to vote.

Today, the fight for voting rights is just as urgent. That's why I'm a proud supporter of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. #RestoreTheVote

Today marks the 60th anniversary of Bloody Sunday, when marchers were attacked in Selma. Unfortunately, states continue to restrict voting rights. The need to #RestoretheVote is urgent – why I’m proud to cosponsor Rep. Terri Sewell’s John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

(11/19)

Today, I joined Rep. Terri Sewell and @housedemocrats.bsky.social to introduce the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to protect voting rights and guarantee every American’s voice is heard at the ballot box. #RestoreTheVote

Republicans are attacking our democracy by trying to pass restrictive voting laws. Today House Democrats reintroduced the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to protect voting rights and ensure every citizen’s voice is heard. #RestoreTheVote

I am proud to be a cosponsor of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to ensure the right to vote is protected. We cannot allow extremists to undermine our democracy and silence our voices.
