Elected officials influence the policies that directly impact the lives of ALL Pennsylvanians. They influence decisions on various issues related to access to sexual and reproductive health care, and many others.
AccessMatters believes voting is a basic right that all people should be able to exercise without barriers. Historically, non-presidential elections have a low voter turnout. We are partnering with National Voter Registration Day — a national day dedicated to registering eligible people in the United States to vote.
