Protect Our Vote Phone Banks
The PA Voter ID Action Team invites you to join "Save Early Voting" phone banks!
The past several weeks have not been kind to those of us who value voting and democracy. Legislators in the General Assembly have introduced bills that would slash early voting, eliminate Sunday voting, and get rid of same-day registration. This is in addition to extreme efforts to make it harder for college students to vote and the introduction of restrictive new voter ID requirements. In a time when North Carolina has some of the highest voter participation rates in the country, legislators are trying to make it harder to vote.
Fortunately, there are several ways that we can all respond to Save Early Voting and Protect Our Vote:
