The State of Voting Rights

The right to vote is a cornerstone of our democracy, and access to the ballot is essential to ensuring that every community can participate fully in our democracy. As new federal and state policies seek to change how Americans register and vote, communities need clear information about what these changes mean for voting rights, Jewish safety, and inclusive democracy.

Jewish safety cannot be separated from the safety and rights of other communities. Policies that make it harder for people to register or cast their ballots can disproportionately affect communities of color, naturalized citizens, college students, people experiencing homelessness, and others — weakening the inclusive democracy we all rely on.

This resource from JCPA provides key facts and talking points to help communities understand the changing voting rights landscape and advocate for a democracy where every eligible voter can participate safely and fully.
