Jenny --

Senator Jack Reed (RI) and Representative Adelita Grijalva (AZ-07) have introduced the Right to Read Act (H.R.6640 / S.3365), landmark legislation that invests in school libraries, strengthens literacy, and defends students' freedom to read.

The Right to Read Act would:

• Invest $600 million annually in literacy and school libraries
• Ensure more students have certified school librarians
• Expand access to diverse, engaging reading materials
• Defend First Amendment rights in school libraries
• Counter the nationwide surge in book bans

But a strong bill is only the first step. Congress needs to hear that the public expects action.

Last year, EveryLibrary helped over 10,500 library activists contact Congress to support an earlier version of the bill. Now it's time to do it again.

This session, you can help pass a law that could actually change the future of reading and literacy for millions of students.

Every $10 we raise helps us reach 1,000 more Americans like you.

Please take a moment to tell your Senators and Representative to support the Right to Read Act by:

• Sending a message to your Members of Congress.
• Sharing the action link with your personal and professional networks, Facebook, Twitter, Threads, Bluesky, and LinkedIn

School libraries will not win this fight alone.

Our students and families need federal leadership, real investment, and enforceable protections for the right to read.

Your voice can help make this bill part of the national conversation.

Thank you for standing up for school libraries, literacy, and the right to read.
