5O,OOO Signatures Needed: Automatically register every eligible American citizen to vote → 

In our recent poll of supporters, an astounding 89% voted in favor of automatically registering citizens to vote on their 18th birthday.

And just a few days ago, California passed a law that will automatically register residents who are eligible to vote when they obtain or renew their driver's license. That's great news!

Keep the momentum going. Add your name to support automatically registering every citizen to vote on their 18th birthday:

John --

When tens of millions of our citizens aren't participating in Democracy, we're not living up to our potential as a nation.

California just joined Oregon as the only two states that automatically register voters. This is huge because, according to the LA Times, about one in five eligible California voters are not registered .

Our mission at Progressive Turnout Project is to elect Democrats. We know having one on one conversations with voters at the door is a winning strategy -- but those conversations can't happen if people aren't registered to vote.

We believe that it should be simple and convenient for all Americans to vote. This is not a magic bullet solution, but it's a great step toward rejuvenating our democracy.

ADD YOUR NAME: Support Automatic Voter Registration so we can increase participation in our democracy >>

Our neighbor to the north, Canada, has universal voter registration. In its last national election, more than 61% of Canadians voted -- compared to about 36.4% of Americans in 2014. The difference is striking!

As a nation, we should encourage voting by reducing hurdles for those that want to go to the polls. 5O,OOO grassroots signatures will send a strong message to our elected officials that every state should join California and Oregon in automatically registering citizens to vote.

Add your name to support automatic voter registration so no citizen has to jump through hoops just to cast their ballot:
