In the latest voting rights news, Texas Democrats from the Texas House have fled the state to stop a vote on new voting restrictions put forth by Texas Republicans. Texas Democrats are now in Washington D.C. where they will meet with lawmakers like Sen. Joe Manchin and make the case for the For the People Act. 

We bring together conservatives, progressives, and everyone in between to pass powerful state and local laws that fix our broken elections and stop political bribery. Our strategy is central to dismantling the root causes of inequities in our democracy, and ending political corruption, extremism and gridlock. 

We’ve passed over 124 anti-corruption laws, from anti-gerrymandering and ranked choice voting to sweeping ethics and transparency laws.
