¡Estamos encantados de que el nuevo secretario del Estado haya actualizado los formularios de restitución de derechos! Es una gran noticia, ya que permite a los ciudadanos que regresan recuperar sus derechos incluso antes de la votación sobre la enmienda constitucional en noviembre.

“For this to come to the people on the ballot—I’m excited for that, but then at the same time, this will kind of tell me whether it’s as important an issue to other people as it is to me,” said Edwards. Read more: www.fxbgadvance.com/p/virginia-o...

Virginia Organizing Vice Chair Reflects on Recent Steps Towards Restoration of Voting Rights
Duane Edwards has advocated for changes to Virginia's disenfranchisement law for almost two decades. Now, a constitutional amendment & a historic court decision mean such changes could be on the way.

In the words of Dr. King, "Give us the ballot, and we will no longer have to worry the federal government about our basic rights." To apply this sentiment to the issue at hand - give us the ballot so that all Virginians can exercise the basic rights they deserve.

En palabras del Dr. King: «Denos el voto y ya no tendremos que preocuparnos por nuestros derechos fundamentales ante el gobierno federal». Para aplicar este sentimiento al tema que nos ocupa: denos el voto para que todos los virginianos puedan ejercer los derechos fundamentales que se merecen.

Incluso en medio del ajetreo de las fiestas y el año nuevo, ¡podemos actuar! ¡Llame a sus legisladores al 202-224-3121 y pídales que amplíen los créditos fiscales mejorados para las primas de la ACA! Patrice Smallwood Chairperson

Virginia Organizing @nnvaorg.bsky.social · 19/12/2025
Ahora, se espera que la votación tenga lugar el 5 de enero, lo que significa que tenemos tiempo para seguir instando al Congreso a que vote a favor de la ampliación de los créditos fiscales de la ACA.

Virginia Organizing @nnvaorg.bsky.social · 19/12/2025
Ayer, cuatro republicanos de la Cámara de Representantes se unieron a los demócratas para forzar una votación sobre un proyecto de ley para ampliar los créditos fiscales para millones de personas que reciben asistencia sanitaria a través de la ACA.

Virginia Organizing @nnvaorg.bsky.social · 19/12/2025
Por eso, nuestro mayor deseo para estas fiestas es que el Congreso defienda la asistencia sanitaria y amplíe los créditos fiscales mejorados para las primas de la ACA.

Virginia Organizing @nnvaorg.bsky.social · 19/12/2025
Hola a todos y todas, A medida que nos acercamos a las fiestas, una de las principales preocupaciones para muchos es cuidar de sus seres queridos. Una forma de hacerlo es exigir responsabilidades a los legisladores y seguir presionando para que se aprueben leyes que protejan a nuestras familias.

We have time to urge Congress to vote yes on extending the ACA tax credits. Even in the hustle and bustle of the holidays and new year, we can take action! Call your legislators at 202-224-3121 and tell them to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits! [Abridged] Patrice Smallwood Chairperson

Virginia Organizing @nnvaorg.bsky.social · 19/12/2025
That's why our biggest wish for this season is for Congress to defend health care & extend #ACA enhanced premium tax credits. Four House Republicans joined Democrats to force a vote on a bill to extend tax credits for millions who receive health care through the ACA. January 5 is the next vote.

#CallToAction As we step into the holidays, a main focus for many is caring for loved ones. A way to do that is hold lawmakers accountable & keep pushing for legislation to protect our families.

Recientemente, el gobierno federal decidió no financiar el SNAP durante el cierre. Está claro que el gobierno federal no está dando prioridad a la asistencia alimentaria, ¡pero debemos asegurarnos de que nuestros representantes estatales sí lo hagan!

Además, las agencias locales del DSS ya no pueden emitir exenciones de elegibilidad para el SNAP basadas en la disponibilidad de puestos de trabajo en la zona.
