August 26 is Women's Equality Day, a day to commemorate the 1920 certification of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution, solidifying the right to vote for some American women.

However, this year LWVUS will not be celebrating. More than 100 years since women won the right to vote, women have fewer rights than they have had in decades. We call on our lawmakers to restore and protect the rights of women.

Pass voting rights legislation
Add the Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution
Restore reproductive rights

Poll workers are the people who make our democracy run. They open and close polling locations, process voters, and process ballots. They are on the front lines, ensuring that voters are not disenfranchised and that Michigan has a voting system that works for all.

You still have time to register and vote in the August 2 primary. Your voice is important - make sure it is heard.

Michigan's voter ID law requires every voter to verify their identity. Most in-person voters provide a photo ID, but those without a photo ID may verify their identity by taking an oath and signing a simple form called an affidavit.
