Democracy Champions Reintroduce Freedom to Vote Act to Ensure All Citizens Can Make Their Voices Heard

Today, Senators Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Raphael Warnock (D-GA) and Representatives Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), John Sarbanes (D-MD), Joe Morelle (D-NY), and Terri Sewell (D-AL) reintroduced the Freedom to Vote Act, legislation to restore national voting standards and reverse voter suppression laws passed by GOP-led state legislatures. The Freedom to Vote Act would require states to enact secure automatic, same-day, and online voter registration; guarantee access to early and mail-in voting; and stop the extreme partisan gerrymandering that lets politicians pick their voters instead of the other way around.
