Voter Registration

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.

The League of Women Voters statement on the U.S. Supreme Court decision regarding the National Voter Registration Act.

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.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), we’re joining with Project Vote and other voting rights advocates for a tweet chat!

This case puts independent voter registration drives, like those conducted by the League, squarely in the crosshairs of those that want to restrict access to political participation and voting.
