The Freedom to Vote Act: A Landmark Step Towards Protecting Our Democracy
A Crucial Measure for Preserving Voting Rights
Ensuring Access for All
The Freedom to Vote Act, a major pro-democracy legislation, establishes national standards to expand and protect access to the ballot. Its provisions, such as requiring states to create a permanent early voting list and treating an application to vote by mail as valid, aim to prevent election denial and partisan interference.
A Call to Action
As President Biden emphasized, "Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy and the fundamental right upon which all our civil liberties rest." The ACLU is actively working to protect and expand voting rights, recognizing the urgency of this legislation in safeguarding the integrity of our democratic process.
