Rep. Reichert: Stand up for the right to vote.
Rep. Reichert please cosponsor and fight to improve the Voting Rights Amendment Act of 2014. As your constituents and fellow Washitonians we are looking to you to protect everyone's right to vote.
Why is this important?
While the celebration of M.L.King is still fresh in our minds, it is important to do more than just honor the man. Equal participation in our civil rights is the basis for our Democracy, without which we are doomed to rule by money. We must restore the protections, that were weakened by last year's Supreme Court decision, which allow everyone, regardless of race, disability, economics or age to participate in the elections process.
