Want to be heard? Speak out with your vote!
NATIONAL EDUCATION ASSOCIATION ^ | September 6, 2018 | Lily Eskelsen GarcĂ­a

The well-rounded education that all students deserve includes a deep appreciation for citizenship and its core right and responsibility: voting.

With National Voter Registration Day just around the corner (Tuesday, September 25), the NEA is encouraging members to advocate for—and hold—voter registration drives in public high schools.

We are getting voter registration tools out to members through the NEA EdJustice League, our new avenue for building power and making our voices heard in communities across the nation. (By the way: The NEA Edjustice League offers a variety of ways you can connect with other activists in your area on lots of issues. Click here for more info.)

Through the NEA EdJustice League site, you can take these important steps:

  1. Check the status of your voter registration, get the voter deadlines in your state, and find your polling place.
  2. Create your own “super-social network” by sharing links and colorful graphics with your friends and family on social media and asking everyone in your network to share through their networks.
  3. Access a how-to guide with quick tips for setting up a voter registration drive.

The NEA and the DNC are identical in political ideology, IMO

They are both a danger to the well being of the nation.

The screwball commies and Nazis keep whining that ICE has got to go. No, NEA has got to go. The students they are pumping out are mostly morons.

Most High Schoolers are too young to vote
They want them to cheat and vote anyway.
The Dems are dangerously desperate.
