 Registration Nationwide\n\nEnd Burdensome Voter ID laws\n\nSee our 7-slide 
 refresher on voter suppression on our website home page before you call 
 your friends and get them to call and demand their state and federal 
 legislators defend voting 
 rights.\nhttps://nationalvotercorps.org/about-nvc/\n\nHosted by the NVC 
 Steering Committee: https://nationalvotercorps.org/ \n\n\nVoting Rights Are 
 Under Attack\n\nSince January, 48 states have introduced 389 bills that 
 amount to shameful, outright voter suppression, and many have already 
 become law. \n\nThese laws suppress voting methods that enrich our 
 democracy and lead to high turnout: banning ballot drop boxes and mail-in 
 voting, reducing early voting days and hours, restricting who can get a 
 mail-in ballot, prohibiting officials from promoting the use of of mail-in 
 ballots even when voters qualify, even criminalizing the distribution of 
 water to voters waiting in the long lines these laws create.\n\nRacist, 
 anti-democratic voter suppression laws amount to rigging the game. But in 
 America, elections are not a game—and lives depend on their 
 outcomes.\n\nThat’s why, on August 28, 2021, we’re marching on 
 Washington D.C., as well as protesting in Palo Alto, Sacramento, Atlanta, 
 Miami, Houston, Phoenix and other cities across America. \n\n\n\n
