The law is on the voters' side. Federal law — and many state laws — prohibit armed federal agents at polling places, voter intimidation, and election interference. Our new resource explains these protections and the efforts underway to keep elections safe and secure. bit.ly/4yOProg

"The more students who understand the importance of the right to vote and how to organize their community, the higher turnout can be, and the more likely we will have free and fair elections for all in November." Person to person matters, but each state can do better with teen voter reg.
The Civics CenterNEW DATA: only 7% of New Hampshire 18-years are registered to vote. By contrast, in Oregon, Michigan, and Colorado 70+% are registered. That’s 7x as many, and it proves that states have the power to do a better job of consistently welcoming their newest voters. open.substack.com/pub/thecivic...
⭐️ NEW: A court has upheld a ruling that halted President Trump’s executive order to create a federal list of eligible voters and limit delivery of mail ballots to only his approved voters. This ruling applies to 23 states. apnews.com/article/trum...

In a new report, @thecivicscenter.bsky.social found that in states across this country tens of thousands of young Americans are eligible to vote but not yet registered. It ranges from 10,000 in VT to 420,000 in TX. We can and must change this. www.thecivicscenter.org/data-portal

🗳️4 million Americans turn 18 this year. If recent rends hold, less than 1/3 will be registered by November. 📢High school communities can help students access their power, this and every year. youtube.com/shorts/28HEx...
Four million Americans will turn 18 this year. Why aren’t we registering them to vote? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... @laurabrill.bsky.social You can donate to @thecivicscenter.bsky.social via COMMUNITY PARTNERS (EIN: 95-4302067).
Think anyone can register to vote online or at DMV? Think again. Current systems block 4-5 million 18+19yos every cycle. That's why high schools are the most equitable, durable place to welcome new voters, year after year. www.newsfromthestates.com/article/when... Thanks to @statesnewsroom.com
