Make Your Voice Heard on the Proposed New Election Rules by the NC Board of Elections
The NC State Board of Elections has issued new rules regarding election practices with three proposed new election rules. At best, these rules are unnecessary. At worst, they are a blatant attempt to block voting access and quiet the voices of North Carolina voters, particularly those from Black and brown communities.
It’s easy to speak out against these rules. Click on the link below to read sample public comments, then submit your own. Make it personal. Leadership needs to hear from North Carolinians of all walks of life about how these “rules" will have real consequences.
Public comment periods for the voter ID exception form, voting site environment rule, and absentee ballot rule are open May 15 through July 14. The state board is required by law to consider public comments, so every comment counts.

Make Calls to Encourage Governor Stein to Veto SB 899
Senate Bill 889 is a moratorium on property tax re-evaluations for the 26-27 budget year. The moratorium would have affected 12 counties, but 7 have been exempted via this or other legislation. Guilford County is the largest county affected, and the bill has been championed by Guilford legislators John Blust (District 62) and Alan Branson (District 59).
This bill, if signed into law, would mean that Guilford County reverts to a hold-harmless budget – no increases from the 25-26 fiscal year. For public schools, that would mean literally not being able to keep the lights on, in addition to leaving our classified staff without a raise of any kind as inflation and cost of living skyrocket. For county services, it would mean major cuts to staff and programming.
The bill is on Governor Josh Stein’s desk to sign or veto. If the Governor chooses to veto, one or both houses of NC Congress may NOT have the supermajority votes to override the veto, so it’s essential to get the veto from Stein. He’s facing some narrative about how “the people need tax relief,” so he may have a reason to sign unless we offer a counter-narrative.
Make the call and ask Governor Josh Stein to veto this bill! The Guilford County Commission has proposed a compromise budget that would lower the tax rate, but still maintain enough funding for county services, including education funding for Guilford County Schools, but this bill takes away the local power and hands it to Raleigh.

Save Public Education
We are partnering with Public School Strong and Down Home NC to help get the word out about the #BigUglyBill and its implications for education in our state.
There are an alarming number of people who don't know what the passing of HB-1 (the "Big Beautiful Bill") will mean for public schools across the country. The drastic funding cuts in the bill will have serious consequences for North Carolina as well.
Here's a brief snapshot:
overcrowded classrooms and poor learning outcomes due to growing teacher shortages
crumbling school buildings and failing infrastructure in schools across the state
staff shortages of bus drivers, cafeteria workers, and other support staff like nurses, social workers, and librarians
It can all be overwhelming and demoralizing, but we can not give up. Our children are depending on us! Here are some things that we can do:
Help spread the word about the funding cuts so parents and public school supporters won't be totally blindsided.
Invite people to get involved, no matter what their political affiliation is. If they care about public schools, we need them to join us.
Connect with other public school advocates so we can leverage our collective power and work together to fight the assaults on our schools.
Here's how you can take action now with Public School Strong and Down Home NC:
Join the monthly Public School Strong Organizing Meeting where parents, family members, educators, and supporters from across the nation gather each month to gain practical tools to promote, protect, and strengthen our public schools. Register Here

Make Calls to Our U.S. Senators to Voice Opposition to the SAVE Act
Republicans in the U.S. House have PASSED the extreme anti-voter Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act (H.R. 22/S.128) and declared it among their top priorities. Thankfully, it is not gaining much ground in the Senate, but keep making the calls!
This bill would hinder millions of eligible Americans from registering to vote by requiring citizens to present a birth certificate or passport in person to register. Millions of Americans don’t have easy access to these documents.
Senator Thom Tillis: 202-224-6342
Senator Ted Budd: 202-224-3154
SCRIPT:
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
I'm calling to urge [SENATOR NAME] to oppose the House-passed SAVE America Act, which would create unnecessary barriers to voter registration and disenfranchise countless voters, especially women, seniors, and low-income citizens. The bill is designed to block voters despite no evidence of widespread fraud.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Oppose Senate Passage of the Make Elections Great Again (MEGA) Act
The SAVE Act is rearing its ugly head once again, this time in a new form. The MEGA Act will institute even MORE control over elections, which are supposed to be entirely decentralized and run by the states. Read more here from 5Calls. Democracy Docket notes that the Act is likely going to come up for a vote in the Senate, although there are not enough Democrats to overcome a filibuster. Make the call today to make sure that this federal overreach of a bill does not see the light of day!
Email/Phone Script:
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
I'm calling to urge [REP/SEN NAME] to oppose the Make Elections Great Again Act. This bill usurps states' constitutional authority to administer elections and imposes needless and expensive voting restrictions, potentially disenfranchising millions in the name of fighting almost nonexistent election fraud.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Spread the Word and Beat the Algorithms!
We are working with multiple partners on a new initiative to spread the word on various topics and beat the algorithm!
The idea is that one topic will be shared on one day each week and then re-shared throughout the week to beat out the algorithms of the socials. Rather than relying on scattered, short-lived outrage, the goal is to work together to create sustained, intentional campaigns that keep important issues in the spotlight and hold powerful organizations and decision-makers accountable through lawful pressure, public awareness, and collective action such as boycotts.
By shaping our own viral moments and setting the rhythm of the conversation, we can break through the usual news cycle and make sure critical stories don’t fade away. Follow this page, join the conversation, and help spread the word so we can grow this community and amplify our impact together.
