Funder Strategy Session on Voting Rights and Election Administration

The 2020 elections were fraught with unprecedented challenges, ranging from the COVID-19 pandemic to targeted voter suppression to overt after-the-fact attempts to overturn results in key states. While our beleaguered institutions ultimately prevailed against these threats, our electoral democracy emerged hobbling, with a disturbingly large number of Americans harboring doubts about the integrity of this and future elections.

Join experts and practitioners to discuss the key opportunities this moment presents to defend and strengthen voting rights and election administration, through defensive legislative or legal action, proactive federal and state legislative reform, and organizational efforts to bolster elections infrastructure and accessibility ahead of the next major election cycle. Funders will have a chance to discuss the role philanthropy can play in defending voting rights and furthering reform opportunities.

Featuring:

  • David Becker, Executive Director & Founder of the Center for Election Innovation & Research

  • Tiana Epps-Johnson, Executive Director & Founder of the Center for Technology and Civic Life

  • Megan Lewis, Executive Director & Co-Founder of Voting Rights Lab
