A message from Rock the Vote
Today is the last day of Pride Month. Pride can't just be a celebration. It has to be a revolution.
Each year in June, we celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride Month. This year’s Pride looked a little different, but we still honored our hard-won progress and recognized the work that still needs to be done to achieve full equality.
But we know the LGBTQ+ community needs more than just celebration – they need action, too. That’s why we’re working to ensure LGBTQ+ voters are empowered, informed, and engaged in 2020.
Like many marginalized communities, people who identify as LGBTQ+ are often disenfranchised when it comes to voting. As Pride Month comes to a close, we want to highlight some voting resources that might be particularly useful for LGBTQ+ folks.

Voter ID laws can create barriers for trans and nonbinary folks, who may not have a photo ID that matches their gender identity.
**Learn how to vote without a home address**

Many LGBTQ+ people experience housing instability or homelessness, which can make it difficult to register to vote.

During the fall semester we had an amazing Constitution Week filled with excitement!
Here is a recap of what we did during the week:
We started by giving out more than 300 constitution booklets, having a constitution cake, fun games, and important information on municipal elections! We also had Deliberative Dialogue Day, a conversation about preventing mass shootings, and a debate between two brilliant professors on the electoral college.
