Hi
friend
,
More than 150 million voters are expected to cast ballots in 2024, and at We The Action, we want to make sure that every election is free, fair and safe. That’s why today, we’re launching our Voter Vanguard campaign to provide pro bono opportunities for lawyers to defend our democracy, secure our elections, and advance the right to vote during the 2024 election cycle.
Time and time again, lawyers have used their superpowers to protect and strengthen our democracy. Whether you have been a part of We The Action since our start or are just beginning your pro bono journey, our democracy is counting on you to join us and take action in 2024. ([link removed])
As part of the Voter Vanguard campaign, we’re recruiting We The Action lawyers to collectively donate 150,000 hours of legal services to protect democracy — and we can’t do it without volunteers like you,
friend

SIGN UP TO JOIN THE VOTER VANGUARD ([link removed])
In recent years, the right to vote has been under threat. This year alone, at least 284 bills that restrict voter access have been introduced across the country. In a recent survey of local election officials, forty-five percent reported fearing for the safety of their colleagues. These challenges are a call to action.

Through our Voter Vanguard campaign, volunteers will be on the front lines of protecting voting rights and democratic institutions, advising on voter outreach efforts, representing election administrators, and working to restore voting rights to newly returned citizens. Our Voter Vanguard campaign will also offer opportunities to participate in monthly engagement, education, and training events alongside our phenomenal nonprofit partners, experts, and advocates in the field of democracy and voting rights.
Join We The Action and the New York City Bar Association for the first event on April 16 from 6pm-7:30pm ET. Speakers will include Ben Ginsberg from the Election Official Legal Defense Network and former Department of Homeland Security Secretary, Jeh Johnson. ([link removed])
My team and I are already counting down the days until Election Day, and I look forward to working with you to ensure that our elections remain free, fair, and secure.
Sincerely,
Anna
