Solutions to Bridge the Divide

The 2016 Presidential election will be the first election since 1964 where Americans will vote without the full protection of the law. Although courts have been striking down voter ID restrictions on a state by state basis, including in North Carolina and Wisconsin voter restriction laws still exsist in state and local elections across the country, disenfranchising citizens on both racial and economic grounds.

Understanding your state’s voter laws early, registering to vote, and supporting and empowering your community members to vote are the most important thing you can do this election.
