Plenty of opportunities to take Action for Democracy
Building the Democracy Kentucky needs is a key step to winning our vision for Kentucky’s future. We need to make sure all Kentucky voices have a chance to be heard
The campaign to restore voting rights of Kentuckians with felonies in their past is continuing, with increasing field work to find the 170,000 people who recently got their right to vote back and to help them register to vote! That’s happening alongside our online efforts to train people, reach people through texting, lobby legislators, and more.
We have a lot of upcoming events and actions right now and would like to share them with you to take action and come to what you can!
