• Voting Rights Are Fundamental!
    One of the great achievements of the last hundred years was implementing the 15th and 19th amendments to the Constitution of the USA for all Americans. We as Americans cannot let them walk this basic foundation for freedom back. Without the Voting Rights Act the Constitution is incomplete because it tasks Congress with making the laws which guarantee every American gets an equal chance to exercise their sacred duty to vote.

  • Restore the Voting Rights Act (VRA) to the voter!
    The 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. The bill is or will be supported by some moderate Republicans. Rep. Michaud should support this effort by cosponsoring and fighting for a strong bill. Urge your Congressional representative to do the same. Restore the ballot box to ALL voters and ignore ALEC behind the curtain.

  • Let's Say "NO TO JIM CROW"
    Voting in a Democracy, is the "Final Step" that insures that 'We the people", have our voices heard. When ANY group tries to prevent another group from using that right, they betray the basic principals that many have fought and died to preserve. Sign my petition to show yoyr support for this basic American principal. We can and MUST insure that our fellow Americans are not denied that right.

  • The Voting Rights Act Can Be Restored!
    The Voting Rights Act Of 1965 is one of the most important pieces of The Civil Rights legislations that Congress has ever passed and it's one of the most celebrated achievements our democracy has ever made. Last year, the Republican arm of The U.S. Supreme Court have made a devastating mistake to gut this historic landmark decision, a disastrous ruling which could have terrible consequences to the United States and to America's standing in the world that will result into a number of eliminations for our basic civil rights. Congress can restore those important protections by passing this important bill. Rep. Smith should support this effort by co-sponsoring and fighting for a strong bill that will call for the absolute restoration of The Voting Rights Act Of 1965.

  • Protect, Restore Full Voting Rights
    I am a senior citizen who feels vulnerable to such tactics as begin to limit access to the polls of other minority groups. Voting is a human right and its exercise should be extended as broadly as possible.
