From We the People PA: (https://actionnetwork.org/groups/we-the-people-pennsylvania):
Instead of using $7.5 billion in federal American Rescue Plan money to help those who have suffered the most during the pandemic and to help our economy recover, some legislators in Harrisburg are focused on trying to silence many of our voices by making it harder and more confusing to vote. PA House Bill 1800 is a new proposal that would make it harder for voters to vote in a secure, convenient, and accessible manner and would place barriers and additional burdens on parents, seniors, students, and election workers.
Creating additional hoops to jump through and confusion about the voting process will limit who gets to participate in our democracy and hurts our Commonwealth and our nation.
We need policies that make voting safer, more convenient, and more accessible to all. To move forward together as a commonwealth, we must ensure that every eligible Pennsylvania voter can cast a ballot to elect leaders who govern in our interests, making the promise of our democracy real for us all.

But wait there is more! They also are considering HB1596 legislation to make multiple changes to the Constitution, changing the deadline to cut people off from registering to voter closer to the election and including Voter ID restrictions (remember, we already have voter ID and amending the Constitution to impose administrative requirements is a terrible idea).
We must fight back and defend the right to vote in PA! Use this tool to contact your state legislators and tell them to reject HB1800 and fight to ensure that everyone who calls PA home goes together to use our voices at the ballot box with none of us left behind.
Click HERE NOW to tell your Legislators to vote NO on HB1800!
As always, thank you for your support!
