Our program engages the public, specifically the BIPOC community, on the importance of voting—a key pillar to our democracy. We provide basic voting information on a nonpartisan basis. Among various tactics, we send text messages to voters to get to their polling location or to enroll in vote by mail.
Rapid Resist supports progressive organizations fighting back against attacks on our communities and our democracy.
