Early and Mail-In Voting
When it comes to voting rights, one of the most powerful things you can do is to take advantage of early and mail-in voting. It’s not just about convenience—it’s about making sure your voice is heard, no matter what happens on Election Day. By voting early or by mail, you take control of your vote and make sure it counts. Don’t wait until the last minute—get your ballot in as soon as you can!
Know Your State’s Voting Options, Dates, and Time Periods
Another crucial step is to know your state’s voting options, dates, and time periods. Each state has different rules, and it’s up to you to make sure you know when and how you can vote. This is your future we’re talking about, and missing a deadline isn’t an option. Check your state’s website, mark those dates on your calendar, and make sure you’re ready to vote when the time comes.
Demand on-site Federal protection (national guards or other governmental agencies) for the polling places; especially in battleground states or wherever needed to guarantee the people’s right to vote.
We also need to stand up and demand federal protection at our polling places, especially in battleground states where tensions can run high. We need the National Guard or other government agencies on-site to make sure everyone can vote safely and without intimidation. Voting is our right, and we need to make sure it’s protected for everyone, no matter where they live.
Protect Voting Rights by signing the John Lewis Voting Rights Act into law.
And finally, we must fight to protect our voting rights by supporting the John Lewis Voting Rights Act. This law is crucial in making sure that everyone, especially in communities that have been historically marginalized, can exercise their right to vote. John Lewis dedicated his life to this cause, and it’s up to us to carry on his legacy by ensuring that this vital legislation becomes law. Let’s not let his work be in vain—let’s protect our right to vote for generations to come!
