Fight for fair elections

By Al Grumet, Green Change

“The best response to an attack on demo­cracy is to strengthen demo­cracy.” – Brennan Center for Justice

Our democracy faces growing threats from voter suppression, gerrymandering, abuses of executive power, mass incarceration, and other forces that erode the integrity of our electoral system. We can counter these threats by supporting organizations that safeguard our systems of democracy and justice. 

The Brennan Center for Justice is a nonpartisan law and policy institute that defends and strengthens American democracy through advocacy, research and outreach. Support their work to ensure that our coun­try remains democratic, just, and free. 

Other organizations who fight for fair elections and protect voter rights include Common Cause and When We All Vote. Consider supporting them to sponsor a nonpartisan election protection volunteer – or volunteering yourself as a voting squad captain or chapter leader to help voters today! 

Focus for Democracy uses data-driven methods to identify programs with the greatest impact in the fight for democracy. Participate in one of their virtual events to learn more about their recommendations for maximizing the return on your political dollars
