Timeline: Voting Rights confirms 3 things we all know:
-
Most of our ancestors struggled for the right to vote.
-
As a nation, we’ve been painfully slow to honor this foundational promise of democracy.
-
That struggle continues today. Trump-led state legislatures systematically endeavor, under the color of so-called “election integrity” laws, to suppress & impede the voting rights of students, minorities and others.
As legal experts, historians and journalists daily confirm, we must rally together in order to preserve our democratic Republic .
Lincoln emphasized that in order to know where we’re going, we first need to know where we are.
And knowing where we are demands that we understand where we’ve been.

“Defending our freedom, though, is not just the job of our military alone. We must all do our part to make sure our God-given rights are protected here at home. That includes one of the most fundamental right of a democracy: the right to vote. When any American, no matter where they live or what their party, are denied that right because they can’t afford to wait for five or six or seven hours just to cast their ballot, we are betraying our ideals.”
