“Congress must act to protect voting rights for Black voters and voters of color. The Black Caucus will not stop until we pass the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to restore the full protections of the Voting Rights Act.” #DefendOurVotingRights cbc.house.gov/news/documents…
Register for The Leadership Conference’s virtual event on voting rights on Nov 30 @ 3 PM EST. The event will focus on increasing access to the ballot for voters with disabilities, who often face compounded barriers as a result of adverse voting laws & practices.

We honor you.
We remember you.
We will never stop fighting for you.
