Voter Registration

Yesterday, a record 800+ groups—including nearly 300 League of Women Voters affiliates in 43 states—headed out into their neighborhoods to help Americans register to vote or update their registration.

The League made key suggestions to President Obama's Presidential Commission on Election Administration Reform. 

On September 24, 2013, the League will celebrate National Voter Registration Day (NVRD) with a major voter registration event, featuring actress America Ferrera, in New York City's Bryant Park.

This Independence Day help us make our democracy work – encourage your fellow citizens to visit VOTE411.org and register to vote!

Earlier this week, the U.S. Supreme Court issued a victory for voters when it struck down an Arizona law requiring documentary proof of citizenship when citizens register to vote.

Four young women from Austin, TX who are in DC to compete in the National History Day Competition visited our offices to discuss their impressive project on the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

It struck me that the League doesn’t just ask others, like Congress to pass Comprehensive Immigration Reform or the Supreme Court to continue to protect voting rights, we foster civic life and democracy through the very way we operate.

The League was proud to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), which has helped register millions of eligible Americans.

The League once again calls on the President and the nation's new elections commission to make bold changes to make elections free, fair and accessible.
