It’s not partisan; it’s your right to vote.

It’s not partisan; it’s your right to vote.

Yesterday was a dark day for our democracy. In Louisiana v. Callais, the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act and opened the door for Republicans to dilute representation for voters of color across the country, especially in the South.

But the fight is not over. It cannot be over. Our fight—America’s fight—will not be over until every citizen’s voice is heard and every vote is counted equally.

In moments like these, the words of John Lewis inspire action in all of us: “Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.”

For John Lewis, for every American whose vote is under attack, for our children and the democracy they will inherit—our fight continues.
