Washington, D.C. – “As we advocate in the spirits of Saints Francis and Clare and believe in the human dignity of all, the Franciscan Action Network (FAN) is delighted that the For the People Act, S1, has been introduced in the Senate. FAN urges S1’s immediate passage in the Senate in its entirety,” said Stephen Schneck, Executive Director of the Franciscan Action Network. “As an estimated 265 bills are being introduced at the state level to roll back voting rights, it is imperative, now that the House has passed HR1, that the Senate pass S1 to ensure that all Americans have equal access to the vote, and that big money no longer has a stranglehold on our political discourse.”
