Across the country, extremist state politicians have been passing anti-voter bills making it harder for people to vote, especially for people of color. Now, these same state politicians are preparing to draw highly partisan congressional maps that will effectively disenfranchise voters for the next decade.
The "For the People Act" (S.1) would protect our freedom to vote, reform campaign finance, ensure fair redistricting maps, and help create a democracy that works for all of us.
The week of September 13th, U.S. Senators are returning to Washington, D.C. from research and voting rights will be a legislative priority. With redistricting already underway, we don‘t have time to waste.
September 17 will be a nationwide Day of Action to urge the U.S. Senate to Finish the Job For the People by passing the "For the People Act" quickly and to demand that the filibuster not prevent them from getting the job done.
See the list of local rallies, some online, during the week of September 13 and sign up for an event September 17 event and register here:

The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Team is hosting a book talk and Q & A with John Paul Brammer (JP) the author of the wildly popular Hola Papi! How to Come Out in a Walmart Parking Lot and Other Life Lessons. JP Brammer "is both kind and piercingly funny, often in the same sentence….Personal and affecting….¡Hola Papi! is a master class of tone and tenderness, as Brammer balances self-compassion with humor. Throughout, Brammer bridges his identities and his sensibilities; he is at once the self-deprecating Papi and the kind sage John Paul. He leaves his beloved reader with the solace that, by practicing kindness in our reflections, we can find lessons for ourselves and teach others to do the same.”—NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW (EDITORS‘ CHOICE)
JP writes an advice column for Grindr that he calls Hola Papi! (Hello, Buddy). This book is a spin on the advice column for the LGBTQ+ community. The book is published by Simon and Schuster and is available in book or audio recording. More reviews will be posted.
Open to the public. Closed captions and Spanish interpretation available. Registration is required. Please send any questions in advance for the author to: info@lwv-larimercounty.org.
