Poder Latinx Launches 2-Year Voter Registration Effort Ahead of Critical 2024 Elections on Cesar Chavez Day

NATIONWIDE- Today, Poder Latinx is launching a 2-year-long voter registration effort to register the Latinx community in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, and Washington in preparation for the 2024 election cycle. The launch falls on the same day as Cesar Chavez Day, in which the civil rights and labor leader is recognized for his work advocating on behalf of farmworkers and Chicanos.

The following quote is attributed to Yadira Sanchez, Executive Director of Poder Latinx,

“Today we recognize the vast impact that Cesar Chavez had on the Latinx community as a whole, paving the way for our involvement in labor and organized issue mobilization. As the Latinx community continues growing throughout the United States, it is critical that our community participate in elections at all levels- from presidential down to school board races and everything in between. We are initiating this program to help the Latinx communities in Arizona, Florida, Georgia, and Washington get registered and empowered to cast their votes, and to ensure that they can be supported with our teams of bilingual canvassers. The work of Cesar Chavez shines through in this program launch as we work to honor his legacy and empower Latinx voters and community members to take action. Join us at one of our events below.”
