Be Heard: Get Out the Vote!

One of the most powerful ways to influence education and policy makers is by choosing who has the job in the first place! Across the country members of Congress, Governors, local elected officials and the President have expiring terms. This November, voters will decide who will stay and who will go!

GLSEN's Voter Registration Week is about mobilizing students and student clubs, commonly known as gay-straight alliances (GSAs), to get involved in the political process. From registering to vote yourself to getting others registered to vote -- or simply ensuring education and safer schools issues are parts of political conversations -- this is your opportunity to have your voice heard!
