Disability Rights & Voting: April 13th Advocacy Training on Legislative Proposals
Wisconsin legislators have introduced some voting bills that may make it harder for people with disabilities and older adults to vote. It is important that policy-makers hear from voters with disabilities, older adults, and their allies. A hearing on some bills is tentatively scheduled for next week.
Join us on Tuesday April 13th on Zoom to learn about the bills and how you can share your concerns with policymakers and the media – register at the link below. Let’s work together to ask policymakers to support accessible and inclusive elections.
