Our Western New York community is clear - it's time for federal policy that protects the freedom to vote! If you have an organization in WNY, sign here: bit.ly/2W1TDCZWe have 40 organizational sign-ons to support the #ForThePeopleAct. Through this campaign, we are organizing hundreds of Western New York voices to tell Senator Schumer that protecting our democracy isn’t a partisan issue. The For the People Act would do the following: • Expand access to the ballot for tens of millions of Americans.• Lessen the undue influence of a small group of extremely wealthy donors by empowering small donors.• Ban what’s known as “partisan gerrymandering” where politicians draw their own district lines and instead puts in place uniform standards for congressional redistricting that include stronger protections for communities of color. • Create automatic voter registration, same-day voter registration and stops voters from being kicked off the voter rolls.• Shore up rules that block the undue power of big money in politics and ensures they are enforced.• Strengthen ethics codes across all three branches of the federal government.Algonquin Sports for Kids Black Love Resists In the Rust Citizen Action of New York The WASH Project Poet Jillian Hanesworth NYPIRG Emerge Partnership for the Public Good Buffalo Center for Health Equity Fruit Belt Community Land Trust Heart of the City Neighborhoods, Inc.
