With less than 50 days until the midterm elections, When We All Vote, is gearing up for our National Voter Registration Week of Action. It’s a critical moment for us to register our friends, family, and community ahead of these important midterm elections.

Historically, turnout in midterm elections is lower than the presidential election -- but we know that if we work together, we can increase voter turnout. There’s a lot to do over the next few weeks to make sure everyone makes their voices heard, and we need your help.

Here’s what you can do:

From Congress to your local government, there’s so much on the ballot: access to health care, how communities are policed, the judges who make decisions in courts at every level, how this country combats climate change, and more.

I know people sometimes wonder if their hard work is just a drop in the ocean -- but I want you to know that every bit counts. Voting in every election is an investment in our future and takes us one step closer to securing a democracy that works for us all. We can’t forget that.

Will you help me and my team by checking your voter registration right now? It only takes a few minutes.

Our vote is our voice. It’s our power. It’s how we can build communities where we can thrive.

Thank you for all you do. Let’s get to work.
