National Popular Vote
Common Cause is working to ensure everyone's vote truly counts in presidential elections.
Pagpapanumbalik ng Mga Karapatan sa Pagboto
A democracy that is truly of, by, and for the people must extend the right to vote to all its citizens. Common Cause is pushing back against laws that disenfranchise and disempower millions of Americans every year.
Felony disenfranchisement, or the practice of denying currently and formerly incarcerated citizens their right to vote, creates a class of people who are subject to the laws of this country without a say in how they are governed. These laws are Jim Crow era relics, originally created to uphold white supremacy by stripping Black Americans and other citizens of color of their right to be heard. Restrictions currently vary from state to state, and Common Cause is working across the country to uproot this broken and unjust system with Voting Rights Restoration reforms.

Tell Congress: End Shameful Felony Disenfranchisement
Every American citizen deserves to be heard in our democracy. But right now, Jim Crow-era felony disenfranchisement laws deny this fundamental right to over 4.6 million Americans.
Congress must take action to fix this by passing the Inclusive Democracy Act, which would guarantee voting rights to ALL American citizens.

Growing up in a household that placed significant emphasis on the importance of voting, I have always understood the POWER in being able to vote and having your voice heard.
