Exciting news!
In celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, we’re joining forces with the United State of Women, When We All Vote, and the Gender Equity Voting Collaborative to bring you the When All Women Vote Week of Action! While women won the right to vote in August of 1920, activists have been fighting for a century to make sure that includes ALL women. The battle for the ballot continues today as prolific voter suppression threatens democracy nationwide, with people of color most often the victims of targeted disenfranchisement.
Women of color led the way in the 19th-, 20th-, and now 21st-Century to protect and expand voting rights. We’re calling on new voters, future voters, experienced voters, and everyone in between to help us reach 300,000 eligible voters during the When All Women Vote Week of Action August 17-20!
The week of action starts on MONDAY August 17, and with USOW and When We All Vote we will be taking a new action each day to make sure every eligible womxn is registered and ready to vote this election season. Take the pledge to join us, and receive daily actions — like building your November voting plan, combating voter suppression, or challenging your friends to join the fight — straight to your inbox!
We can’t wait for you to join us for the When All Women Vote Week of Action, culminating in a #CouchParty with Glamour Editor in Chief Samantha Berry, USOW Co-Chair and When We All Vote Board Member Valerie Jarrett, DJ Diamond Kuts, and more special guests on Thursday, August 20 at 5pm ET! Visit the USOW website for more information and to take the pledge!
