To: Mike Bloomberg and Tom Steyer

Bloomberg and Steyer: Pay the fines of Florida's formerly incarcerated citizens so they can vote.

Courts ruled recently that Florida's 1.5 million formerly incarcerated felons/returning citizens can vote, but only if they pay fines they owe the court. They don''t have the money. You do. Pay those fines and free 1.5 million votes. Buy democracy a fighting chance.

Why is this important?

It's not hyperbole to say that he future of the planet depends on free and fair elections in Florida. A rigged election in Florida determined a previous election, and could well determine the next one. If oil companies buy another four years in the White House, then the climate catastrophe will become much worse. It's coming down to people vs the oil companies, and we need free and fair elections to win. Re-enfranchising voting rights of Florida returning citizens would make the 2020 election more free and fair. In this one single act you could do a mountain of good for future generations.
