Donate to Defend our Democracy
Dear ~~first_name~~,
Please find attached the May issue of The Voter, filled with timely information on the June 2 Primary, our Candidate Forums, the Youth Voter Initiative's remarkable spring, and much more.
As you open this newsletter, we are also absorbing the weight of yesterday's Supreme Court decision in Louisiana v. Callais, in which a 6-3 majority significantly weakened Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 — one of the most consequential civil rights protections in our nation's history. The League of Women Voters of the United States has condemned this ruling in the strongest terms.

This is precisely the moment our work matters most. I encourage every member to visit
lwv.org/take-action to find current opportunities to make your voice heard — including calling your members of Congress and other actions in response to these threats to our democracy. Everyone eligible must be prepared to vote in the primaries and in November. It’s our responsibility to ensure our communities feel the urgency to exercise our power and make our voices heard.
Our voices matter. Our votes matter. Our work matters.
Onward together, |
