Voting is powerful, and the right to vote is essential for every American.
It is key to fight for the right of every person to have easy access to both registration and voting sites. In addition, we need to fight to change the laws that say that felons, even those who have served their time, are not allowed to vote. These laws are unjust and disproportionately affect Black voters due to our history of racism in the justice system.
