Kamala Harris Launches Initiatives to Boost Voting Access for November Elections

The Vice President's plan includes voter registration drives, protection for election workers, and national days of action.

Vice President Kamala Harris announced a series of initiatives to enhance voting access ahead of the November elections, focusing on voter registration and protection.
The initiatives include emailing voter registration information to Affordable Care Act enrollees, employing students for voter registration through federal work-study, and protecting election workers via a Justice Department task force.
Harris also declared three 'national days of action' to promote voting, coinciding with Juneteenth, the Voting Rights Act anniversary, and National Voter Registration Day.
The Vice President's efforts come amid concerns over voter suppression and threats against election workers, highlighting the administration's commitment to safeguarding the democratic process.
Harris will commemorate 'Bloody Sunday' in Selma, Alabama, reinforcing the ongoing struggle for voting rights and the importance of the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
