We The Action Volunteer,

Good morning, and welcome to our weekly digest of current volunteer legal projects.

A special thank you to the lawyers who signed up to help ensure an accurate vote tally in Georgia and Nevada over the weekend! The Nevada project is still looking for lawyers, so there's still time to sign up if you live in Nevada! And if you know lawyers in Nevada, please share this email with them!

We have more than 120 legal projects that need your help:
