Democracy Seminar Rescheduled

We're postponing tomorrow's Democracy Seminar to fight against a major threat.

Pamela, We have an important update: our Democracy Seminar originally scheduled for Wednesday, March 26, has been postponed to next Wednesday, April 2nd. An urgent legislative issue has come up—and we need your help. At the exact same time as the Democracy Seminar event, the Florida House State Affairs Committee is scheduled to hear HB 1205—a dangerous bill designed to restrict the citizen-led amendment process. This is a direct attack on one of the last tools Floridians have to hold lawmakers accountable. We can't let them silence voters, so we're asking you to take two minutes today to call the Florida House State Affairs Committee members and urge them to vote NO on HB 1205. We'll follow up soon with updated details about the Democracy Seminar. But right now, we need your voice. TAKE ACTION Thanks for always standing up for Florida democracy. Pamela, our democracy works best when we stay informed and engaged. That's why we're inviting you to join us for this month's Common Cause Florida Democracy Seminar on Wednesday, March 26, from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM ET—a virtual event you won't want to miss. This month, we're focusing on two critical issues that we are advocating for in Tallahassee. The Florida Voting Rights Act – What it means for protecting and expanding access to the ballot, and how it can safeguard against voter suppression tactics. Disaster Affected Voter Bill of Rights – Ensuring voters impacted by natural disasters aren't left behind, and the steps we can take to guarantee fair access to the ballot for all Floridians. With voter suppression efforts on the rise and natural disasters increasingly disrupting elections, these protections are more important than ever. We'll be joined by Common Cause Florida's Executive Director, Amy Keith, and Legislative Advisor, Pamela Burch-Fort, who will break down the impact of these initiatives and share ways you can help defend voting rights in Florida. RSVP Now This is an opportunity to learn, ask questions, and connect with others who are passionate about protecting the right to vote. Register and join us in the conversation. Together, we can ensure that every Floridian's voice is heard at the ballot box. We hope to see you there!   Franceska Edouard, Florida Organizer and the team at Common Cause Florida Common Cause Florida is a leader in fights that matter at both the local and state level.
