Hillary Clinton: The fight for the vote is worth fighting

hillaryclinton Win or lose, fighting for what's right is always, always, worth it. Thank you to the 48 Democratic senators who voted for civil rights and our democracy last night; to @SenSchumer for his leadership; and to @POTUS and @VP for making voting rights the priority it should be.
The U.S. Senate is now on the record. Fifty Republicans and two Democrats are in the history books for using the filibuster to do what the filibuster does best: block the right of Americans, particularly Black Americans, to vote.
What's next?
I think we know what John Lewis would do. He would never, ever, ever give up.
First, adopt a U.S. Senate race in 2022. Volunteer, donate, talk to friends about Dem candidates who will fight for our democracy. It's a tremendous accomplishment that we now have 48 senators in favor of reforming the filibuster to protect voting rights. We only need two more.
Second, please consider running to be an election administrator. @runforsomethingnow, an Onward Together partner, will help.
Third: Laws that suppressor supportthe right to vote are made in the state legislatures. Pick an organization or two electing state Democrats to support. @DLCC, @sister_district, and state parties are great places to start.
"I believe a vote is a kind of sacred prayer for the world we want to live in," Sen. @RaphaelWarnock said yesterday.
The fight for the vote is worth fighting. This struggle did not begin with us, and we will not let it end with us. Onward.

I know we DUers will continue the fight.
