Update: MoveOn's state's voter leave laws for employers.

[Guest guest]

Hold your calls, please.

 

Dear MoveOn member,

 

Earlier today, we asked you to reach out to your employer to discuss

your company's policies on time to vote on Election Day, November 2nd.

 

The response to this message has been overwhelming -- a positive sign

that so many MoveOn members are taking this matter seriously.

 

However, the hotline we encouraged you to call is not the best place

to learn your state's voter leave laws for employers. To make sure

you know your rights, please go instead to:

or email:

If you feel that your employer is not respecting these laws, or if you

see things happening in your local area that suggest that the election

is not being administered with integrity, please call the Election

Protection Toll-Free Hotline at 1-866-OUR-VOTE (1-866-687-8683).

 

But please don't call it now to find out your state's voter leave laws.

 

For that, please refer to the website or the email address above.

 

Also, to find out more about Election Protection and to find your

state's Voter Bill of Rights, please visit:

Thank you.

 

Sincerely,
