“We’re All Trying Really Hard To Suppress The Vote”
This legislative session, Republicans have used their power to introduce over 100 anti-democracy election bills and Senator Kelly Townsend just said the quiet part out loud on the Senate floor. While explaining her yes vote to another bill that suppresses our freedom to vote, Sen. Townsend said, “we’re all trying very hard to suppress the vote.”
These bills do everything to prevent you from signing up to vote, voting, and knowing if your ballot has been counted. Right-wing Republicans have sponsored bill that prohibit same-day voter registration, onerous voter ID laws, and an end of early vote centers, ballot boxes, and drive thru voting that disproportionately harm the young, Black, Indigenous, and people of color.
These bills, sponsored by ring-wing Republicans in the House and Senate, are attacks on our democracy and Arizonans’ freedom to vote – can you give $10 to help flip the Arizona Legislature?
