Protect Our Democracy; Push the Senate to Support the Freedom to Vote Act

Our democracy is threatened when voting rights are under attack. The Ohio Chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-Ohio), Ohio’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, is urging Ohioans to stand up for voting rights.

The Freedom to Vote Act will help remove several hurdles that communities of color and other minority communities face when voting. This bill seeks to eliminate challenges with voting by:

  • Expanding voter registration (e.g., automatic and same-day registration)
  • Voting access (e.g., vote-by-mail and early voting)
  • Limiting the removal of voters from voter rolls
  • Restoring voting rights to those with past criminal convictions
  • Establishing Election Day as a federal holiday.

Additionally, the bill addresses election integrity and security, redistricting, and campaign finance. The Freedom to Vote Act will ensure that all citizens will be better represented in our government.
