End Citizens United // Let America Vote President Tiffany Muller released the following statement praising Leader Chuck Schumer for his commitment to voting rights:
“Through Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s incredible leadership, Senate Democrats have come together as a caucus with the shared goal of protecting the freedom to vote and ending the dominance of big money in politics. The new Freedom to Vote Act upholds the central pillars of the For the People Act by protecting the freedom to vote for all Americans, stopping partisan gerrymandering, and ending dark money so that billionaires can’t buy elections. If enacted, it will be the most significant anti-corruption and voting rights bill in generations.
“For months, Sen. Schumer’s steadfast support for the fundamental right to vote has provided the focus and moral clarity needed to win this fight.
“The Senate must do whatever it takes to pass this bill immediately to ensure everyone has a say in our democracy, not just corporate interests and big donors. It cannot let outdated procedures stand in the way. We will continue the fight until the job is done.”
