Friend,
I signed a petition telling the U.S. Congress: We demand a democracy that works for us.
Voters delivered a mandate --and an opportunity-- to move our democracy forward. It's time for Congress to listen.
We need a democracy where voters are protected from discrimination and can make themselves heard at the ballet box. A democracy where electoral districts are drawn fairly, so that every voter's ballot is worth the same. And a democracy where ordinary Americans --more women, people of color, and working people-- can run for office without relying on special interest Big Money.
Just imagine what a Congress that took our democracy seriously could accomplish. We must ensure that H.R. 1, the first order of business in the New Congress, is the strongest package possible of democracy reforms -- to make sure government works for all of us.
These solutions are already working in states and cities across the country -- many of them passed by ballot initiative with strong bipartisan support-- and we can't let special interest groups and others who prefer the status quo stand in our way.
Add your name to demand House leadership make a bold show of support for our democracy -- and introduce the strongest possible H.R. 1 to strengthen our democracy.
Can you join me and take action?
