Sixty-one years ago, the Voting Rights Act became the law of the land after generations of Americans refused to accept that the right to vote should depend on who you are.
Today, we have a Supreme Court that gutted the Voting Rights Act and a Republican Party that wants to cheat to steal power from the people. They are scared of your power and want you to believe your vote does not matter.
Let me be clear: Your voice and your vote are your power. Never let anybody take your power.
Let us remember the leaders who made the progress of the Voting Rights Act possible, and let us honor them by continuing to fight for the freedom to vote for every American.

Today, we have a Supreme Court that gutted the Voting Rights Act and a Republican Party that wants to cheat"
Just a reminder of what party fought to stop it..
