President Donald Trump used a televised speech last week to once again claim, without evidence, that the 2020 election was stolen from him.
His speech effectively cast doubt on our election system and its integrity, despite his unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud being debunked.
Trump’s misinformation campaign, along with his proposal for the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act ahead of the midterm elections, is an attack on voting rights. But you can do your part for democracy and the integrity of elections in Pennsylvania. Here are three ways you can help.
Sign up for Indivisible’s Hands Off Our Vote program
Indivisible is one of many organizations on the front lines working to preserve voting rights.
As a response to President Trump’s speech and his proposed SAVE Act, Indivisible launched its Hands Off Our Vote program.
Their goal? Keep Americans informed, prepared, and ready to fight for their rights.
You can sign Indivisible’s Hands Off Our Vote pledge, get key voting deadlines for your state, learn more about your voting rights, and be the first to know about any rallies or protests happening in your area.
To sign Indivisible’s pledge, visit their mobilize link.
