Stop The Republican Attack On Voting Rights
The Republican plan for '08?
Legalized voter suppression
Republicans in Congress are trying to ram through a bill that would require voters in federal elections to show a government-issued photo ID, under the guise of preventing fraud. There's virtually no evidence that the kind of fraud this bill would prevent even exists. The only predictable effect is that voting would become impractical for millions of Americans who don't have such ID--the elderly and the poor--and, as a result, many of them will choose to simply not vote.
Suppressing the vote is anti-democratic and un-American. Please join us in calling on all members of Congress to reject HR 4844. Then please ask your friends and family to do the same.
