Automatic Voter Registration Lobby Day 2018
January 31, 2018 @ 9:30 am - 12:00 pm
Automatic voter registration (AVR) is the next step in voting rights. It shifts our voter registration system from an opt-in to an opt-out one, involving more citizens in the political process. It also costs less in the long run and makes voting rolls more accurate and secure. Approximately 680,000 eligible citizens are currently not registered to vote in Massachusetts–AVR could give them a voice in our democracy.
The Election Modernization Coalition will be hosting a lobby day for constituents to sit face-to-face with their representatives and tell them why we need AVR here in Massachusetts. Sign up today to be a part of the movement!
Registration and training will take place in Room 428 in the State House (24 Beacon St, Boston, MA 02133).
