We are getting ready to start collecting petition signatures to get the Voting Restoration & Democracy Act on the Nov. 2018 ballot, and we need volunteers! If we get this passed, 180,000 people in prison and on parole in CA will have their rights to vote restored!
Come out tonight from 6-8pm and get trained on:
- How to collect signatures
- VRDA talking points
- How to reach people directly impacted by incarceration
Address: 436 14th St, Oakland, CA Suite #723
Can’t make it in person? Call in: (641) 715-0712 Access Code 188007#
Initiate Justice believes that our incarcerated loved ones and those on parole should not lose their fundamental democratic rights when they enter prison. Everyone should have the right to have their voices heard, no matter what.
We will need approximately 586,000 valid petition signatures to qualify this initiative for the November 2018 ballot. Sign up to volunteer or donate to support our efforts and spread the word! You may download our VRDA Fact Sheet PDF here.
There will be an upcoming training in Southern California soon!
In unity,
