Voting Access

Dear [Representative Name], As your constituent, I am writing to urge you to support policies that expand voting access and protect the fundamental right to vote for all eligible citizens. Voting is the cornerstone of our democracy, yet millions of Americans face unnecessary barriers that make it difficult or impossible to cast their ballots. These barriers disproportionately affect communities of color, young people, elderly citizens, people with disabilities, and low-income individuals. From strict voter ID laws to limited early voting periods to inadequate polling locations, these obstacles undermine the principle that every voice should be heard in our democracy. I urge you to support legislation that would: • Expand early voting and vote-by-mail options • Automatic voter registration and same-day registration • Restore voting rights to formerly incarcerated individuals • Ensure adequate polling locations and resources in all communities • Protect against voter purges and ensure accurate voter rolls • Make Election Day a national holiday or require paid time off to vote Voting should be easy, accessible, and secure. When we make it harder for people to vote, we weaken our democracy. When we expand access, we strengthen it. Study after study shows that voter fraud is extremely rare, while barriers to voting are all too common. The right to vote is sacred, and it's the foundation of all other rights. I trust that you will work to protect and expand this fundamental freedom for all Americans. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to your leadership in defending voting rights. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [Your Phone Number] [Your Email]

Dear [Representative Name], I am writing to express my deep concern about efforts to suppress voter turnout and undermine confidence in our elections. Our democracy depends on free, fair, and accessible elections, and we must oppose any attempts to make it harder for eligible citizens to vote or to cast doubt on legitimate election results. Recent years have seen a surge in legislation that restricts voting access under the guise of election security. These laws disproportionately impact communities of color, young voters, and low-income citizens. At the same time, baseless claims of widespread voter fraud have eroded public trust in our electoral system, despite overwhelming evidence that our elections are secure. The facts are clear: • Voter fraud is extremely rare and does not justify restrictive voting laws • Voter ID laws, reduced early voting, and polling place closures disproportionately affect marginalized communities • Election officials and security experts confirm that our elections are secure • Voter suppression undermines democracy and disenfranchises eligible citizens I urge you to: • Oppose legislation that restricts voting access or makes it harder to vote • Support measures to strengthen election security without limiting access • Defend election officials and workers from harassment and intimidation • Speak out against false claims of election fraud • Support federal protections for voting rights Protecting the right to vote is not a partisan issue—it's a fundamental American value. When we make it easier for all eligible citizens to vote and ensure that every vote is counted, we strengthen our democracy. Thank you for your attention to this critical matter. I look forward to your leadership in protecting voting rights and election integrity. Respectfully, [Your Name] [Your Address] [Your Phone Number] [Your Email]
