Keep Florida Voting
New laws and voting rules can be confusing, but together we can make sure all eligible Florida voters have access to the ballot box.
توقف سرکوب رای دهندگان
Some elected officials are trying to silence voters by creating needless barriers to the ballot box. Common Cause is fighting back against these anti-democracy efforts.
We should be able to make our voices heard at the polls and have a say in the leaders who represent us. But sometimes, politicians push for laws that discourage, obstruct, or even intimidate voters in an effort to cling to their power.
Polling place closures, limits to vote-by-mail, and needlessly strict voter ID regulations can prevent eligible voters from casting their ballot—and lately, this playbook of voter suppression strategies has become more popular. Common Cause is stopping voter suppression by opposing these efforts in the legislature, in the courts, and beyond in defense of the right to vote.
What We’re Doing
Legislation
Freedom to Vote Act
This robust democracy reform package will give everyday people a bigger voice in politics and create a more ethical and accountable government.
Legislation
The Voting Rights Advancement Act (VRAA)
We must restore the protections of the Voting Rights Act and eliminate barriers to the ballot box.
