It is significant that, for the second time in less than two months, 50 senators (Democrats and two Independents who caucus with them) were willing to begin debate on a transformational anti-corruption and freedom to vote package.\r\n\r\n\u201cTo the millions of Americans around the country who prove we can modernize our elections by winning the solutions locally that Congress has included in the For the People Act, and to everyone who has made a call, written a letter, worked a phone bank, or attended a rally -- this fight is not over. Majority Leader Schumer indicated that voting rights\u00a0will be the first order of business when the Senate returns from recess in September. If\u00a0Americans stay engaged, contact their Senators, keep the pressure on, and keep organizing on this\u00a0as they have on important issues in the past, I\u2019m confident we, the people will prevail,\u201d said Hobert Flynn.\r\n\r\nThe For the People Act is a comprehensive approach to modernizing our elections and democracy that reduces the influence of money, strengthens voting rights, ends gerrymandering, and raises the bar on ethics, moving closer to the time when our democracy truly works for all of us.\r\n\r\n\u201cEveryone, regardless of political party, how much money is in your pocket, your unique life experience, or the zip code you live in, should have an equal voice in the future with their vote and equal access to the ballot,\u201d said Hobert Flynn. \u201cFor the last 50 years, most voters believed that while we still had disparities that needed to be addressed, at least we agreed that the goal is an equal vote for everyone.\u201d\r\n\r\nCommon Cause put Senators on notice that we will score votes on the bill in the next B\u1ea3ng \u0111i\u1ec3m d\u00e2n ch\u1ee7<\/a>, compiled on each Congress to inform our 1.5 million members and the public about which elected officials are true champions of democracy.\r\n\r\nThe letter to each Senate office read, \u201cThe For the People Act is popular with Republican, independent, and Democratic voters. In fact, many components of the bill have already passed in red, blue, and purple states, often with strong bipartisan support, and recent polling shows that it is popular with conservative voters. Because this bill is popular, corporate special interests and dark money voter suppression groups lie, deceive, and distort to try to erode its support. Opponents of the bill admitted in a recorded secret call that the bill is popular, even among conservatives, and instead want to rely on 'under-the-dome-type-strategies'\u00a0to defeat it.\"\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nCommon Cause l\u00e0 m\u1ed9t t\u1ed5 ch\u1ee9c phi \u0111\u1ea3ng ph\u00e1i, c\u01a1 s\u1edf, t\u1eadn t\u1ee5y b\u1ea3o v\u1ec7 c\u00e1c gi\u00e1 tr\u1ecb c\u1ed1t l\u00f5i c\u1ee7a n\u1ec1n d\u00e2n ch\u1ee7 Hoa K\u1ef3.
