Does Verizon really support Voting Rights?
Verizon's position on voting rights is poor because they believe that only certain people, such as those who own property, should be able to vote. This position ignores the fundamental principle of democracy that everyone should have a say in how their country is run. It also denies people the opportunity to have their voices heard and makes it harder for them to hold their government accountable.
