Register to Vote and Make Native Voices Heard

Apr 23, 2020 | Advocacy, Inside the College Fund

Voting is not just a right, it’s an obligation: to yourself, your family, and your community as a good relative. By voting in tribal, local, state, and national elections, you have a voice in choosing leadership that determines funding for schools and higher education programs, transportation, housing, health care policy, and the security of our nation. These issues have a significant impact on Native students and their communities!

In order to VOTE, you must REGISTER!

The American Indian College Fund has created a handy chart below with links for voter registration information for every state.

Find your state and click on the link provided to your state’s voter registration page to learn what you need to register, how to vote by mail if you do not have access to the polls, and deadlines.
Thank you for helping to determine the future of your communities and our nation by voting!
