Club Meetings & Voter Registration
News
OC Registrar of Voters is Hiring!
Orange County has a new way to vote! New Vote Centers will replace traditional polling places, and the OC Registrar is hiring Vote Center workers. If you are bilingual in Spanish, Vietnamese and Chinese, you are especially encouraged to apply. These are temporary positions that have an estimated duration of 1-2 weeks total, including paid training. Learn more here.
Schools and Communities First Act: Sign the Ballot Proposition
A corporate property tax loophole has allowed big businesses in California — like Chevron, McDonald’s, and Disney — to avoid paying their fair share, to the tune of $12 billion a year. That’s $12 billion taken from schools, parks, and public health clinics. This loophole amounts to a massive tax break for a fraction of ultra-rich corporate landowners and investors, at the expense of homeowners, renters, and small businesses.
The Schools and Communities First Act will close the corporate tax loophole, and end 40 years of disinvestment that has starved our schools and vital community services of funding. Learn more and sign the petition.
Support of Nevada Democrats and volunteer for the Nevada Caucuses
The Nevada Democratic Caucus will be held Saturday, February 22. The state party needs help to ensure the thousands of caucus meetings run successfully. If you are interested in experiencing the Nevada Caucuses as a volunteer worker, learn more and apply here.
