Voting and political empowerment

Latinos are the second-largest group of voters in the country. We reach out to voters and potential voters to make sure all eligible Latinos are registered, informed, and engaged in the political process every year.

Latinos can determine who wins elections.

The 2020 elections proved what we already knew: if you engage Hispanic voters, they will show up and cast decisive votes.

We strive for a vibrant democracy that lifts all voices and strengthens civil society. We support policies and programs that make registration and voting accessible to all Americans, particularly those long underrepresented; ensures leaders are accountable to all communities; and foster solutions-driven engagement.
