Every Michigan voter deserves access to fair & secure elections. Passing the Michigan Voting Rights Act would protect Michiganders from ever being unfairly denied the right to vote. Learn more at Michigan.gov/SOS/Elections/…. @minaacp @darrincamilleri @ACLUofMichigan @AghoghoEdevbie

A critical reason we need to pass the Michigan Voting Rights Act is that we have the power at the state level to protect our democracy. Join @JocelynBenson, @JeremyAllenMoss, @stephanielily, @SenErikaGeiss and me in Detroit tonight as we explain and advocate for the MVRA.

Dehumanizing the incarcerated is not a representation of who they are. It is a representation of who you are!
