Write Your CT Lawmakers: Connecticut, Don't Be Georgia. Pass Voting Reforms Now!
Outrageous new Jim Crow style voter suppression laws in Georgia will limit the right to vote and silence citizens by restricting the option to vote by mail, limiting ballot drop-off sites, canceling early voting on Sundays and even making it a misdemeanor to give water or food to people who are waiting in line to vote. These voter suppression laws will disproportionately impact Black voters. Yet here in Connecticut we've never even won the freedoms that Georgia voters are seeing restricted.
