Looking for Stories of Kentuckians who are Homeless

Are you or is someone you know homeless and interested in talking about voting rights?

As you may know, a handful of Kentucky politicians like Secretary of State candidate Bill Johnson have recently been questioning the right of homeless Kentuckians to fill out voter registration cards with a blank address, insisting that they should only be allowed to register if they include their "legal address."

KFTC doesn't think that we should prevent Kentuckians from voting just because they don't have a home. 

We're interested in launching a campaign in the coming weeks to defend voting rights of homeless people and others - and we're going to need your help.

Stories are some of our most powerful tools in connecting with people on this issue, so we're looking for more Kentuckians who are homeless who might like to tell their stories about voting and other challenges.

If you are or know someone who would like to tell their stories in an interview, please email Dave Newton, KFTC's Voter Empowerment Organizer, or call him at 859-420-8919.
