Presented by the Tikkun Olam Coordinating Team
Please RSVP to receive the Zoom link by contacting Dick Goldberg (dickjgoldberg@gmail.com).
At this meeting, we will review possible actions – including the following – and make plans for which of these we might do as a community. Please feel free to bring more ideas!
1. Volunteer with ACLU PA, which:
- Works to protect everyone’s right to vote and participate in a fair election process.
- Is committed to ensuring all citizens can cast their votes and have them counted.
- Coordinates the Election Protection Coalition, to ensure that every eligible voter casts a counted ballot.
ACLU PA staff have suggested some ways GJC members can work with them (as a group or individuals, including from home) to:
- Provide voter education.
- Triage calls on election day.
- Be poll workers and watchers.
2. Volunteer with the Committee of Seventy (C70):
This is a nonpartisan group advancing ethical and effective government in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania through citizen engagement and public policy advocacy.
- Provides Poll Worker Resources – partners with League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania and experienced poll workers to offer information and resources for individuals who want to staff polling places on Election Day.
- C70 and the League also offer information sessions with a former county election director for those looking for a more detailed overview of working the polls.
- Election Academy – Committee of Seventy and the Philadelphia City Commissioners Office offer an educational series on how elections are administered in Philadelphia.
3. Volunteer with Election Protection:
- Legal professionals: Answer calls on the organization’s 866-OUR-VOTE Hotline.
- Non-legal professionals: Become a non-partisan poll monitor.
4. Volunteer with Philadelphia Neighborhood Networks – Action Network:
- Opportunities to register voters.
