| Pt III, line 4a: | Advancing Voter Education: The Leagues county election website review encourages counties to take needed steps to become a trusted resource for voters. Voters look to their counties to find accurate, accessible, and useful voter information on safe and secure county election websites. We expanded our criteria to include changes required by SB1, the major elections bill that went into effect for 2022 elections. In partnership with the Center for Civic Design, we created a new vote by mail application with instructions that are easier to use and understand. We also developed new Voter Education material including videos to educate voters on how to complete the new vote by mail application and ballot carrier envelope. |
| Pt III, line 4a cont.: | Fighting for Safe & Accessible Elections for All: Without the protection of the Voting Rights Act (VRA), the League must stand up to more government efforts to suppress the vote. We fight against laws that infringe on voting rights both at the Texas Capitol and if they pass, we fight them in the courts. We joined a lawsuit against Texas Governors proclamation that limited drop-offs for mail ballots to one location per county; joined the Richardson v. Hughs lawsuit to allow cure for mail-in Ballot signature verification; participated in a lawsuit against the State of Texas under the National Voter Registration Act (Motor Voter) to require the Department of Public Safety to offer voter registration online to those updating their drivers license online. Filed an amicus brief at the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals in support of Ms. Crystal Masons petition for review of her conviction for voting "illegally." LWVTX joined LWVUS and 50 other Leagues in filing an amicus brief for Moore v. Harper, one of the greatest threats to our democracy in our time. We provided depositions on Texas Senate Bill 1 (SB1) and redistricting suites. We joined in filing multiple other suits, all of which suppress the vote of people of color, people with disabilities, students, senior citizens, or people who are economically disadvantaged. |
| Pt III, line 4a cont.: | Safe Voting for Vulnerable Populations: Organized community organizations and county and state government partners to promote working the polls to the younger, less vulnerable population; offered voter education about safer options to vote such as voting by mail, voting in person, voting during off hours, proper hygiene, masks, and social distancing. Provided information on vote by mail including eligibility, due dates, tips to fill out the application, and tips to turn in a vote by mail ballot. |
| Pt III, line 4a cont.: | Election Protection: LWVTX partnered with the Texas Election Protection to provide local monitoring of election issues. League presidents watched for systemic voting issues while League members volunteered as roving or onsite election protection workers, or monitored the web for misinformation. |
| Pt III, line 4a cont.: | Organizational Development: Provided training and support to existing local Leagues through webinars, monthly calls with leaders, newsletters, and in person training sessions prior to the biennial convention. Supported local chapters and members through mentorship and telephone support. Provided grants to local chapters to support their work in voter engagement. Supported the development of new local chapters: our streamlined process for starting a League encourages rapid growth, expanding our mission of empowering voters into more communities across Texas. Our training and mentoring create strong, innovative, and creative new League leaders. League volunteers come from diverse populations in metropolitan, suburban and rural areas. |
