Are you concerned about getting out the vote for the fall elections? Efforts are underway to make it more difficult for US citizens to register to vote, to know where to vote, to vote early, or to vote by mail. These voter suppression tactics are occurring at the federal and state level here in NC and disproportionately affect communities of color, married women, and those that have been affected by natural disasters.
Come hear from the Southern Coalition for Social Justice and Democracy NC about what is being proposed and learn what we can do about it.
- Who would be impacted by laws such as the passing of the federal SAVE Act, which would require either a passport or a birth certificate in person to register to vote?
- What other attempts have been made here in NC to suppress voting?
- What is being done to address these threats to our democracy and what can individuals do?
