I’ll keep this quick, ACLU Supporter:
4 weeks.
That’s all we have left until one of the most consequential elections of our lifetimes.
And it’s the most dangerous time in the election season because we know that many anti-democracy politicians will stop at nothing to hold on to power – including doing everything they can in these final weeks to suppress the vote.
The ACLU has been at the forefront of pushing back against discriminatory voter suppression tactics, and your support has made an incredible impact across the country.
But in these final weeks, we’re all going to have to dig a little deeper to keep up the fight to protect our voting rights and our safety in this crucial election. Because, right now, the stakes could not be higher.
If you haven’t been personally affected by voter suppression, it’s easy to feel like this fight is all theoretical. But, ACLU Supporter, that couldn’t be further from the truth.
This fight is about empowering Black and Brown voters, poor people, our youngest voters, the elderly, and people with disabilities – instead of shutting these folks out of the opportunity to demand change.
It’s about ensuring that the leaders who take office in 2025 are truly representative of the communities and constituencies they must serve.
It’s about defending all our fundamental rights and civil liberties at the ballot box, from abortion and reproductive rights to LGBTQ rights to free speech and so much more.
For freedom and justice,
