John,
With Election Day just 7 months away, we’re kicking off our voter engagement work now!
Across the country, elections at every level will determine whether to invest in education, housing, health care, and many other critically needed programs, and whether the right to vote will be protected. These choices could not be more important—and we all need to work together to make sure that voters, especially those with low incomes, people with disabilities, women, and people of color, are able to get to the polls and make those choices.
Once again, we’re joining our friends at Vote Forward to increase civic participation by writing letters to infrequent voters in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin to encourage folks to get out and vote for human needs.
Vote Forward, the volunteer letter-writing campaign we hope you’ll sign up for, has a proven track record1 of increasing registration and turnout. They’ve shown repeatedly that letters that volunteers like you write really work.
Join the Coalition on Human Needs and Vote Forward as we work to increase voter education and participation during this critical election year. Click here to select voters from one of the critical states above to write to today.
TAKE ACTION
In 2023, 14 states enacted 17 voter suppression laws to make it much more difficult to register and to vote.2 We know these bills disproportionately impact the most vulnerable communities—communities of color, low-income communities, LGBTQ+ communities, and rural communities.
There is so much at stake in this year’s presidential and congressional elections and we need to ensure massive voter turnout to elect a president and members of Congress who will reflect the needs of low-income people.
Sign up today to write to voters in critical states and help increase civic participation.
Thank you for all you do,
Dominique Espinoza
Outreach and Engagement Specialist, Coalition on Human Needs
