NLIHC’s nonpartisan Our Homes, Our Votes campaign joined thousands of nonprofits, businesses, campuses, and other nonpartisan partners across the country in celebration of National Voter Registration Day on September 17. As a proud partner of National Voter Registration Day – a nonpartisan civic holiday dedicated to celebrating our democracy and promoting access to voter registration opportunities – the Our Homes, Our Votes campaign spent the day mobilizing communities to get #VoteReady.
NLIHC encourages our members and partners to register to vote and spread the word about voter registration! By registering to vote and casting your ballot, you can make your voice heard and build the political will for housing justice.
You can register to vote, update your registration, check your registration status, sign up for election reminders, and find nonpartisan election information for your community at OurHomes.TurboVote.Org. The website is available in both English and Spanish. Click here for more detailed guidance on TurboVote!
