Protect the bedrock of American Democracy: Restore the Voting Rights ActThe Voting Rights Act is one of the most important pieces of civil rights legislation Congress has ever passed. Last year's Supreme Court decision weakened critical provisions of it. Right now, Congress can restore those protections by passing this important bill. Rep. Rice should support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill.457 of 500 SignaturesCreated by Dakota Erikson

Save our Right to VoteThe proposed changed to strengthen Section 5 extends to all states and jurisdictions. Based on the nationwide assault on voters, this is no longer a "Southern" issue. A nationwide formula is long overdue and a good start to re-affirming the most basic right of every citizen.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Elaine M Silverstrim

SUPPORT VOTING RIGHTSTo ask Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen to make sure that the people in her district have their voices heard by being able to vote for the person of their choice. That they will be represented fairly in their district no matter whom they cast their vote for. That they should be able to trust that their vote will be counted. Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen knows there is a lot of voter fraud in her district, especially absentee voter fraud which has resulted in some elected officials being convicted of various offenses. She needs to address this issue with the people of Miami.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jane

Rep. Tim Bishop: Support Voting RightsLast year, the Supreme Court gutted the landmark Voting Rights Act of 1965. Since then, Republicans across the country have raced to implement new restrictive laws that would do exactly what the Voting Rights Act was meant to protect. But now, there's a chance to stop that. Late last week, Representatives Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI) and John Conyers (D-MI) and Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) introduced new legislation—the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014—that would strengthen the Voting Rights Act. Right now, Congress can restore those protections by passing this important bill. Rep. Bishop should support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill.”725 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Michael Bilecki

Voting Rights for AllWhen I was 8, I wrote a letter to President Bush about why kids should be allowed to vote. I got no response, but when my sister sent in fan mail, she got an autographed picture. At 19, perhaps I still hold a grudge against authoritarian rulers making decisions for a collective population.1 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Amy Coffin
