A DFL Education Foundation co-sponsored event
“Democracy for All: The Barriers of Voter ID”
Short Film produced by the League of Women Voters
Debby McNeil
Attorney and Advocate for LWV Issue Positions
Debby McNeil will explain why the LWV opposes requiring voters to have a photo ID, how voting rights would be negatively affected, and the safeguards in Minnesota’s election system.
Stephen Cooper will place the recent movement to restrict voting across the U.S. within the broader context of voter suppression and the history of our nation’s struggle to expand the franchise. Which organizations are behind the proposed voter restrictions? How have votes been manipulated in recent elections? Why is your vote important? Join us and find out!
Come Out, Join your Neighbors, Hear the Issues, and Voice Your Opinions!
Please RSVP on Facebook so we know for how many people to prepare:
