Take the Pledge to Vote
[link removed]
Your vote matters this year. For all of us across New York State, it’s an opportunity to elect candidates who will protect our rights and maintain our state’s role as a progressive leader.
For New York City voters, these midterms are also a chance to strengthen our city’s charter by voting YES on three new ballot proposals from the Racial Justice Commission

:
Add a Statement of Values to Guide Government Action
Establish a New York City Racial Equity Office, Plan, and Commission
Measure the True Cost of Living in Our City
Our voting webpage contains a link to further information

about each ballot proposal and the Racial Justice Commission’s report on addressing systemic racial inequities in New York City.
Over 1 million New Yorkers identify as LGBTQ+. When we show up to vote, we can make a major impact on systems of power. Join us, and pledge to make your voice heard by November 8.
