Local Policies and Practices for a Better Democracy
This toolkit is built to make democratic innovation accessible to any action-minded city council, community organization, local leader, student, parent, or teacher who recognizes that our democracy is falling short of its potential at the local level. From passing a Right to Vote resolution to implementing ranked choice voting, and every policy and practice in between, this toolkit serves as a menu of options for local action. It also is intended to function as a catalyst for other unique innovations that are born out of community discussions around the right to vote.
We have ideas for positive change, and we know you do as well. It’s time to make those ideas a reality, and this resource serves to empower those in a position to affect change. The Promote Our Vote team is here to help. If you are ready to act, have questions about our ideas, have ideas to share, or could use some support, we want to hear from you. Let’s build local democracies that reflect a commitment to voting as a right, that work for their communities, and that are worth participating in. Let’s Promote Our Vote.

Right to Vote Resolutions
What is a right to vote resolution?
Resolutions serve as a statement of principle for localities, campuses, organizations and other individuals and communities. A Right to Vote Resolution maintains that voting is a fundamental right in a democracy. It calls for an explicit right to vote in the Constitution and establishes a task force to explore measures that improve voter turnout, protect voter access, and expand suffrage. Resolutions may include support for additional pro-voting policies and practices, but must contain a call for a right to vote in the Constitution and a task force on pro-voting policies and practices.
