The League of Women Voters of the US president, Dianna Wynn, issued a statement about the state of American democracy ahead of the 2024 general election.

JACKSON, Miss. — Voting rights advocates celebrate a significant victory as the Mississippi Legislature rolled back an unlawful restriction placed on voters.

This legislative change, which takes effect July 1, follows a successful lawsuit led by Disability Rights Mississippi, the League of Women Voters of Mississippi, and three individual Mississippi voters.

The League started Pride month by participating in the West Hollywood Pride, WEHO, with the icon Cyndi Lauper, encouraging parade attendees to make a plan to vote using VOTE411.org. 

Young voters are becoming a force in American politics, and as a result, anti-voter state legislatures are going to great lengths to add hurdles for young voters.

In spite of these barriers, young voters are energetic, organized, and ready to make their voices heard.
