The Freedom to Vote Act Protects Our Elections from Partisan Interference and Voter Suppression
Major Pro-Democracy Legislation Sets National Standards to Expand Voting Access
Protections Against Election Interference and Voter Suppression
The Freedom to Vote Act (FOVA) is a comprehensive piece of legislation that aims to protect and expand voting access, while also combating partisan interference in elections. The bill would establish national standards for voter registration, early voting, and mail-in voting, while also making it easier for people to register to vote and cast their ballots.
One of the most important provisions of the FOVA is a ban on partisan gerrymandering, the practice of drawing electoral districts to give one political party an unfair advantage. The bill would also create a new independent redistricting commission to draw congressional districts.
The FOVA also includes a number of provisions to protect against voter suppression, such as a ban on voter ID laws that make it harder for people to vote. The bill would also expand early voting and mail-in voting, and make it easier for people to register to vote.
The FOVA is a critical piece of legislation that would protect our democracy and make it easier for people to vote. The bill has the support of a wide range of organizations, including the NAACP, the League of Women Voters, and Common Cause. It is time for Congress to pass the Freedom to Vote Act and protect our democracy.
