DEMOCRACY

Why We're Fighting

 

We must ensure that all New Yorkers can participate fully and equally in the electoral process. Our freedom to participate in a healthy democracy is how we ensure a government for the common good – a government that creates good jobs, makes healthcare affordable, and guarantees that all of our children go to good schools.

Voting is one way we ensure that our communities receive the services we are entitled to. We want a transparent process we can trust, where New Yorkers have equal access to the ballot and are able to determine who appears on the ballot, whether we live in a small town or big city, Upstate or Downstate. 

What We're Fighting For

 

We have to make sure that voting options are equally accessible to everyone and that our voices are heard by preventing billionaires from buying our elections and buying our elected officials. We will do this by:

  • Fully funding Public Financing of Campaigns to ensure elected officials are accountable to people, not special interests.
  • Protecting the Freedom to Vote for all New Yorkers and strengthen and expand participation in our democratic elections — including those who are currently incarcerated.
