Hard-fought civil rights are being stripped back. The rule of law is undermined. The norms and institutions that provide the foundation of democracy are under assault. That includes the single most important fight of our time, which makes it possible to wage every other fight and must be the North Star Frederick Douglas pointed toward: The fight to protect the right to vote.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I'm so grateful to the Shanker Institute and @AFTUnion for joining Onward Together to host a conversation this week about that most important of all fights, featuring thoughts from Eric Holder, @RonWyden, @RandiWeingarten, @JoyAnnReid, @LeahGreenB, @Bermz, @ATerkel, @AndrewGillum, and so many more.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The right to vote powers the changes we seek and the future we envision. It is the muscle of our body politic. It determines whether we’ll have good jobs and growing incomes; an economy that works for everyone; quality affordable health care guaranteed for everyone; and whether we’ll win the fight against catastrophic climate change. ⁣⁣ ⁣ Yes, this is about our democracy. But it’s also about dignity, pride and the equality every American is promised—about the ability to stand up and say: "Yes, I am a citizen. I am an American. My voice counts. And my vote must be counted."⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ No matter where you come from or what you look like or how much money you have, that means something. In fact, it means everything.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ For full videos of the talks and panels, visit the Shanker Institute’s website at shankerinstitute.org.」9月18日 23時07分
