Of the 115 people who have served on the Supreme Court, only three of them have been people of color – and only five have been women.
It’s time to bring a new perspective to the Supreme Court. It’s time to put a Black woman on the Supreme Court.

LWV statement on the failure to pass #VotingRights
LWV CEO Virginia Kase Solomón issued the following statement on the Senate vote on #VotingRights: bit.ly/3tMxUxJ
League of Women Voters Snohomish County retweeted
With a 52-48 vote, the Senate declined to make changes to the filibuster to ensure the passage of the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act.
HAPPENING NOW: The Senate is voting on whether to change the rules to pass #VotingRights reforms with a simple majority.
Unfortunately the Senate did not make this a reality...we have more work to do for #VotingRights
We need to convince @POTUS and our senators to do whatever is necessary to pass the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act.
"Wouldn’t that be a wonderful way to honor MLK, and all civil rights activists?"—@LWVSnoho

Contact YOUR Senator - they need to know that passing federal voting rights legislation is a priority for their constituents. 1.888.453.3211
Tell them to do whatever it takes to pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. #WeWantVotingRightsNow
The House just passed the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act...time for the Senate to follow. #VotingRights
Tell your senator, "The country is watching. History is watching. The question is simple: Will your legacy protect or deny our freedom to vote?" #FightForVotingRights
Making progress...more needed! #VotingRightsAct
