Yes! Saving our democracy! 💪

🚨Texas Democrats have officially blocked the Republican voter suppression bill and spared us time to act.

NOW is the time for the U.S. Senate to end the filibuster and safeguard our democracy before it’s too late.

@Sen_JoeManchin and @SenatorSinema, we’re counting on you.

“If we truly want to restore the soul of America we need to protect the right to vote.” @POTUS #JointAddress #JointSession #VotingRights

[LWV of Maryland @LWVMD]

Each state will redraw legislative districts based on the #Census2021 . To protect #democracy we must draw #FairMaps The FOR THE PEOPLE ACT requires independent redistricting commissions, ends voter roll purges based on failure to vote, and restores the Voting Rights Act.

Two MD laws passed this legislative session you should know about: HB745 means SMC will now have 2 Early Voting Centers and lists factors the BOE must consider in locating them. SB683 makes absentee ballots easier to get and lists factors for location of ballot drop boxes.

[Future St. Mary's @futurestmarys]

Let's do this! The board needs to be fair and balanced. It shouldn't be all Republicans deciding our districts. That's just one step away from gerrymandering.

@BC4MD Let's make it happen @PaulPinsky @SenBillFerg @MDSenate

[Future St. Mary's @futurestmarys]

@SpeakerAJones showing us what real leadership looks like! Let's hope @PaulPinsky and @SenBillFerg follow her example. They have under four hours to get this done. #HB655

[Speaker Adrienne A. Jones @SpeakerAJones]

The House passed #HB655 over a month ago. This critical legislation will ensure that the voters of each district determine who represents them in county government. We MUST get this bill done this year. The people have waited long enough. #Working4MD

[Future St. Mary's @futurestmarys]

The General Assembly has a full plate on its last day of the 2021 session. Will @MDSenate make time to protect voting rights? Or will they ignore rural voters and minorities? @mddems @SenBillFerg @PaulPinsky

[St. Mary's County Democrats @StMarys_Dems]

Today, the MGA has reached SINE DIE, or the last day of #mdga21. There is still a TON of work to do, including passing #hb655. @SenBillFerg and @PaulPinsky—don’t say “NO” to voters across out state. #makethetime to pass this historic voting rights bill, bc voting rights matter.

[Future St. Mary's @futurestmarys]

Time to pass #HB655! This voting rights bill would allow voters in a district to choose their County Commissioner, rather than the whole county having a say. #OurDistrictOurVote #NotPartisanJustFair @SenBillFerg
