Can you believe the midterm elections are only 20 days away!?

With voting rights under attack across the nation, the fight for fair elections is more urgent than ever. That’s why thousands of lawyers like you are chipping in to help ensure the election is safe, secure, and accessible for everyone.

This Friday, October 21 at 1 PM ET, join Valerie Jarrett, Tina Tchen, We The Action, and When We All Vote for an exclusive, inside look at the effort to protect the vote! ([link removed])

Valerie — the current Board Chair of Civic Nation — and Tina — the current Chief Strategy and Impact Officer of the Obama Foundation — were both senior leaders at the Obama White House, and will give a behind the scenes look at how lawyers are defending our democracy.

This call is only for lawyers, so feel free to share this email with your professional networks. With less than three weeks until the elections, we need to make sure that our communities have the legal muscle they'll need to protect the elections and stand up for our democracy.
