As our nation grapples with a global health emergency, our democracy and elections remain uncertain. Concerns regarding voter turnout, physical distancing, and the resurgence of the virus are moving state leaders to an all-mail voting system. However, all-mail voting threatens participation amongst historically marginalized communities such as people of color, low-income voters, and voters with housing insecurity. Although states and counties are making decisions now, what can philanthropy do to ensure equity is at the center of our civic participation in 2020 and beyond? How will these shifts limit voting options and transform our long-term voter participation? Join us to learn about the proposed changes and how California and community organizations are beginning to prepare.
