Meredith,
The choices we make at the ballot box shape what happens close to home — in the healthcare we receive, in whether our neighborhood gets the resources it deserves, and in the rent we pay. Voting matters not because one election fixes everything but because who holds the power matters.
The Trump administration and his MAGA cronies are trying to keep us from voting and our votes from counting so that they can hold on to power at all costs. They're trying to change voting rules, rig election maps, and remove millions of Black and Brown citizens from the voter rolls. Despite their best efforts, we will not be silenced. "We the people" have the power.
If you encounter any issues at the polls, the election protection hotline is here for you. You can call, text, or contact 866-OUR-VOTE through social media, and a trained volunteer will provide you with trusted, nonpartisan information so that you can vote and have your vote counted.
We are in this fight with you, ensuring that every person has the voice, opportunity, and power to thrive in our communities.
When we vote, we have a say in who gets to make decisions about our communities and who has to answer to us when they do. Democracy isn't just voting and hoping for the best. We join movements. We build power together. And we hold elected officials accountable after election day. The work doesn't end with voting, it begins there.
Let's get to work.
In solidarity, — The Leadership Conference
