CREATING THE FUTURE BY VOTING FOR IT
Forty-three years ago this week, a peaceful march led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. across the Edmund Pettis Bridge was met with police dogs, batons, and fire hoses — an act of such violence that a horrified nation demanded the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 just a few weeks later.
Tomorrow, we have a unique opportunity to reinforce that legacy by using the power of our vote to create a better future. It doesn’t require a march this time or the courage to confront riot police. All it takes is a few moments to cast your ballot for the kind of steady leadership that will continue to give modern expression to the traditional values that made us great.
