We invite you to join the Roadmap for American Democracy Action in a webinar on July 28th at 2PM focused on urgent efforts to expand and protect voting rights at the ballot box. Come discuss how we can make a real difference in protecting voters’ right to cast their ballots.
States and cities across the country have changed the rules that govern elections in ways that make voting more intimidating, challenging, or potentially outright impossible for eligible citizens – especially citizens of color and young people.
At a moment when there are rampant efforts to limit voters’ rights, ensuring that voters can cast their ballots is one of the most potent forces for protecting democracy. To guarantee voters can cast their ballots freely, elections must be governed by fair rules and administered by nonpartisan officials.
We will highlight the measures that organizations are taking to protect democracy immediately, including ballot measures underway in Arizona and Michigan as well as recruitment of nonpartisan election workers.
Speakers will include leadership from Promote the Vote, working on the first ever effort to enshrine in Michigan’s state constitution protections for the fundamental right to vote and providing for safe, secure and fair elections; Arizonans for Fair Elections, organizing for a critical ballot measure in Arizona that would remove barriers to voting, make the vote-by-mail list permanent again, reduce the influence of money on our elections, and bar legislators from overriding election results; and additional organizations.
To succeed, this work requires time-sensitive support now, for this election (and beyond), and speakers will provide details from the ground on the realities of the field.
This webinar will reflect c4 organizations working on pro-democracy efforts.
This event is being co-hosted by the Pro-Democracy Campaign.
