Look, let’s be honest. Last week’s debate has us all more worried than ever about democracy.
But the reason we’re all so worried is because we know that the stakes in November haven’t changed. Donald Trump and Project 2025 would be an absolute disaster for women, for people of color, for LGBTQ people, and for democracy itself. The Supreme Court continues to push us closer to a dictatorship. And just like a week ago, or a month ago, or ten years ago, the only way to stop it… is to vote.
This week, Daria Dawson of America Votes reminded us that our vote is the single most important way to make our voices heard. If it didn’t matter, why would so many people be working so hard to suppress it? Trump has been saying things like “we don’t need to win the vote, we just need to secure the vote.” And by “secure,” he means that they intend to make it harder for anyone who isn’t MAGA to cast their ballot. The plan isn’t to win Americans over with policies that are good for everyone; the plan is to disenfranchise as many people as possible.
Too many people have died for our right to vote. We owe it to them, and ourselves, to make a voting plan for us and our households. And with today’s Independence Day holiday in mind, there’s nothing more patriotic than celebrating the right to vote.
It’s been a stressful and chaotic week, but the truth is, the situation hasn’t changed. Our vote is still the single most important tool we have to maintain democracy in America. So let’s use it. Join us to learn more.
