Stop Corporate-Funded Voter Suppression
For years, the right wing has been trying to stop Black people, other people of color, young people, and the elderly from voting — and now some of America’s biggest companies are helping them do it. These companies have helped pass discriminatory voter ID legislation by funding a right wing policy group called the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC).
ALEC’s voter ID laws are part of a longstanding right-wing agenda to weaken the Black vote. Major companies that rely on business from Black folks shouldn’t be suppressing our vote. Join us in demanding these companies stop funding ALEC. More »
