We're less than 50 days out from the election. It's time to take charge.

We're going to get out there and vote like our health and rights depend on it — because they do.

We're going to make sure our friends, our families, our neighbors know what's at stake — because we need everyone with us.

We're going to send a message loud and clear — in every election and in every state — so elected officials at every level know exactly where we stand. Some of them sure as hell need to hear it.

That's the plan, but it only works if we each do our part. Today is National Voter Registration Day, the perfect time to check and double-check that you are registered.

It takes two minutes to confirm — click here to confirm your voter registration.

If not, you've still got time. Whether you've never voted, you've moved since the last election, or your state has removed you from the voter rolls (yes, this really happens) — you can get yourself registered. Don't miss this chance to take back your power and get ready to make history on November 8.

Once you're registered, make a plan to vote. Depending on the laws where you live, you may be able to vote by mail, vote early in-person, or vote on Election Day. Figure out a plan that works for you, and stick with it.

In solidarity,
