The John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act is Introduced to the Senate

February closed with the Senate's introduction of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, which would restore crucial components of the Voting Rights Act.

Let Congress know you support this pro-voter legislation!

Voting Rights Victories — and Challenges

In a victory for North Dakota voters, a federal judge dismissed a challenge to North Dakota’s mail-in voting process.

Meanwhile, LWV of Mississippi and partners took legal action to protect voters using absentee ballots. Peg Ciraldo, co-president of the LWV of Mississippi, stated, “This case is an undemocratic attempt to disenfranchise voters who take all the right steps to vote.”

LWV celebrated it's 104th birthday with a virtual panel discussing the importance of young voters.
