John Lewis and C.T. Vivian loved this country so much that they risked their lives so that it might live up to its promise. They gave all of themselves to the cause of freedom and justice, and inspired generations to follow their example. Now it’s up to us to continue the work.
As Republican legislatures across the country deliberately try to make it harder to cast a ballot, we need to keep fighting to make sure every citizen has a voice and a vote. The future of our country is at stake.
@BarackObama Mr President, I agree we need to make fair laws about voting that ensure everyone get access and has the chance to vote, but at the same time we need secure elections as well and requiring an ID isn't unreasonable especially when we need ID to get into many government buildings
@BarackObama Everyone has a voice to vote. You should have a voter ID. They should be made free. You need an id for many things such as traveling. Politicians who say this is about suppression know it’s bullshit because they want anyone to vote that also shouldn’t be voting.

@BarackObama Republican parliaments across the state are trying to make voting difficult. We have to make sure that every American has the right to speak and vote. I think we have to respond sufficiently to attacks on the future of the United States.
@BarackObama Not seeing your point. Proud to have had you as my president but whenever I see the rules for voting they seem pretty reasonable. Whipping up the base is a pols job, I suppose, but this issue seems fake.
@BarackObama I think other countries should be allowed to vote in US elections.
@BarackObama We are with you and are also here to serve and protect our democracy. We WILL continue the fight with their’s and your legacy in mind. For ALL who have fought for equality in every human arena. 👍🏼🇺🇸🏳️🌈
@BarackObama What’s unbelievable is that people still have to fight like hell just to vote
