Chairman Murphy: Reduce voter disenfranchisement
Victory! The creator of this petition declared the campaign a success. You can still sign the petition to show support.
Massachusetts may not be home to the worst kinds of voter suppression, but our outdated laws disenfranchise countless voters and throw up needless hurdles to voting. We can and should get rid of those hurdles today. Please advance comprehensive election modernization legislation to reduce voter disenfranchisement in Massachusetts now.
As the House chair of the Elections Conference Committee I hope you will advance a bill that includes:
- Election Day registration
- Permanent voter registration
- Online voter registration
- Robust early voting with weekend and evening hours
- Pre-registration for 16 and 17 year-olds
- Post-election audits of election equipment
- Improved inactive voting procedures

Why is this important?
As Chairman of the Election Law Conference Committee, Rep. Jamie Murphy is a key decision maker in passing a comprehensive bill to reduce voter disenfranchisement. Please sign this petition now urging Chairman Murphy to support comprehensive reform.
If Chairman Murphy doesn’t hear from constituents like you, he could favor modest reforms rather than a strong reform package passed by the Senate. We need a giant leap in election modernization, not mere baby steps.
As the cradle of liberty, Massachusetts should be at the forefront of expanding voting rights. But right now we’re lagging behind a majority of other states in adopting proven strategies to make voting more convenient, efficient, and accessible to all. Take a stand today for one of the strongest voter rights bills in the country.
Thank you for taking a stand for democracy!
