SUMMARY:Austin Vigil for Voting Rights
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Public Citizen Texas and the Texas Civil Rights Project –\nOur democracy works best when everyone can fully participate\, no matter who they are or what their race or color is. When five U.S. Supreme Court justices gutted the 1965 Voting Rights Act in the Shelby County v. Holder case six years ago\, they made it easier for states and localities to restrict the voting rights of Black\, Brown\, Native\, and Asian American people.\nIt’s time we fix this injustice. Please join us for a special vigil in Austin on Tuesday\, Aug. 6 to celebrate the 54th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act and urge Congress to restore the Voting Rights Advancement Act. This new bill pending in Congress would help prevent racial discrimination in voting so that we can build the truly representative 21st century democracy we deserve.\nWe have a roster of great speakers and hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Austin Rally to Restore Voting Rights Protections
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by – Public Citizen\, Common Cause Texas\, the Texas Civil Rights Project\, TexPIRG\, League of Women Voters\, and MOVE Texas\nIt’s time to rally for voter protections! The month marks the sixth anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Shelby County vs. Holder\, which gutted voter protections in the Voting Rights Act. The ruling has led to discriminatory voting laws across the country – including voter ID laws and gerrymandering. \nVoting rights advocates are pushing back with a National Day of Action to demand that Congress restore voting rights protections by passing the Voting Rights Advancement Act (HR-4). \nPlease join us at City Hall to rally for voter rights!
