Cost should never be a barrier to voting

Dear friend, In 2024, VoteRiders provided almost 25,000 voters with one-on-one free help. One of them was Seiyanna Terrell, a 21-year-old in Nebraska who wanted to vote for the first time in the 2024 presidential election. As of April 1, 2024, Nebraska had a voter ID law …
