YWomenVote 2022
Through our tireless work to eliminate racism and empower women across the country, at YWCA we see everyday what women, families, and our communities need to thrive. The sixth iteration of YWomenVote – released just before the 2022 midterm elections confirms what the communities we serve have been telling us: that women across the spectrum are united in their support for economic, caregiving, gender-based violence, health, and racial justice policy solutions that address our shared concerns.
YWomenVote 2020
The nation will commemorate the 100th anniversary of the 19th Amendment which gave some women the right to vote, and the 55th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which later expanded critical voting rights protection for people of color. Women have responded with consistently high levels of voting participation. As we head into 2020, women – particularly women of color – are primed to continue their unprecedented roles as candidates and decisive voting constituencies in city, county, state, and nation elections all over America.
