League Supports Senate Voting Rights Bill, the Freedom to Vote Act

The League of Women Voters supports the combined Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act, a bill that protects and expands the right to vote, decreases the influence of money in politics, and curbs partisan gerrymandering. The Freedom to Vote Act protects and expands ballot access for millions of Americans, especially those who are often targeted by anti-voter laws — voters of color, voters with disabilities, formerly incarcerated voters, women voters, young voters, and elderly voters.
