Joe Biden should announce that the first bill he’ll introduce as President is the John Lewis Voting Rights Act of 2021, a law that would guarantee every American the right to vote and the right to equal representation.
It would restore the Voting Rights Act, but also ensure:
I am deeply saddened by the news that my dear friend, colleague, and personal hero, John Lewis, has passed away.
One of the giants of the Civil Rights Movement in his youth, his leadership and courage continued as an extraordinary congressional leader.
As they try to stack the Court, we must stack city councils, statehouses, and Congress. This is why elections matter. We cannot stand by as this administration steals another #SCOTUS seat & threatens generations of progress.
Organize. Mobilize. VOTE.
#Juneteenth marks the end of the darkest time in our history. Today, 153 years later, I fear we are facing a different shameful chapter as families are torn apart against their will. We must learn from the sins of our past & commit to a more just future. #FamiliesBelongTogether
Saddened about #AnthonyBourdain. Depression and mental illness can affect anybody. Someone you know could be struggling. Don’t underestimate your ability to help them.
