Washington (CNN) Michelle Obama wants to get out the vote this November -— and she has recruited a star-studded roster to spread the word about voter registration.

The former first lady appears in a PSA released Thursday from the new organization "When We All Vote" alongside actor Tom Hanks, Broadway star Lin-Manuel Miranda, Houston Rockets player Chris Paul, and singers Janelle Monae, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, all of whom are co-chairs of the group.

"If we really want our voices to be heard, we need to vote in every election. Not just for president, but for every office: school board, statehouse, Senate, all of them," Obama says in the nearly two-minute video. "When we all vote, we determine our future."

The former first lady tweeted Thursday that she's "excited to be a part of @WhenWeAllVote to inspire and empower all eligible voters to make their voices heard."

Although the organization bills itself as "nonpartisan," it is helmed by a number of Obama administration alumni, according to Politico , and many of its celebrity co-chairs have traditionally backed Democrats. According to its website, "When We All Vote" is aimed at bringing "together citizens, institutions, and organizations" on voter registration efforts and is planning a week of events nationwide in September.
