Our Vote. Our Democracy.

September 17, 2024 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Join Interfaith Power & Light (IPL) and League of Conservation Voters Education Fund (LCVEF) for a special National Voter Registration Day webinar.

Using our voices to fulfill our civic duty and vote in every election makes a difference in our communities – and our world. Threats to democracy and the environment are intertwined. We cannot effectively address the climate crisis, advance environmental justice and protect our Sacred Earth without advocating for a strong democracy.  All human beings have inherent dignity and worth. Therefore, all Americans should have equal access to the ballot box.

The Election Protection Coalition’s Hannah Walker will join us to talk about ways to protect democracy before and during Election Day by providing an overview of the Election Protection Hotline (866-OUR-VOTE) and its sister language lines that any voter can use. Attendees will also learn how they can help other voters in their community by becoming a poll monitor on Election Day in their community.

Melanie Beikman from Arizona Interfaith Power & Light and Luther Hemby from Power the Vote NC will also share stories about the real-world impacts of voting in their communities and any challenges they face in the process.
