Send Lawyers, Phones, and Money
The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights and its Election Protection coalition partners are recruiting legal volunteers to staff Election Protection Hotlines across the country and work on the ground as mobile legal volunteers.
Through their phone hotlines: 1-866-OUR-VOTE (administered by the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law) and 1-888-Ve-Y-Vota (administered by the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials Education Fund), their website, and field programs across the country, they provide Americans all across the country with comprehensive voter information and advice on how they can make sure their vote is counted.
If you are an attorney, law student, or paralegal, we need your help to protect the right to vote. We’re recruiting legal volunteers to staff Election Protection Hotlines across the country and work on the ground as mobile legal volunteers.
Volunteers must attend in-person a 2 hour training session and are asked to sign up for a 4 - 5 hour shift. Materials will be provided. Individuals will volunteer for both a hotline and/or Mobile Legal Volunteer shift and training directly online.
Go to nationalcampaignforfairelections.org to sign up.
For those non-lawyer types, you can help too by sponsoring the Election Protection Hotline (1-866-OUR-VOTE), which connects trained volunteers with voters in need to troubleshoot problems at the polls in real time.
