Beyoncé's mother, Tina Knowles-Lawson, is urging Senate leaders to pass legislation to protect the voting rights of all registered voters, especially Black and Brown communities disproportionately affected by Covid-19
Knowles-Lawson, in partnership with The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights' campaign as well as the group And Still I Vote, penned an open letter to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer on Thursday specifically calling for them to pass the HEROES Act, which passed in the House of Representatives in May.
"Fall-out from the most recent primaries makes it abundantly clear that we must act now to ensure every citizen can freely and fairly vote in the upcoming general election, and chaos at polling places in recent primaries has demonstrated that elections officials are unprepared to hold safe and accessible elections this year," Knowles-Lawson continued. She highlights recent voting issues at polling locations in Milwaukee, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Kentucky.
