Action Tips: Become a Rock the Vote Street Team Member

Rock the Vote’s mission is to engage and build the political power of young people in order to achieve progressive change in our country. They give young people the tools to identify, learn about, and take action on the issues that affect their lives, and leverage their power in the political process.

Start a Street Team! Hit the streets. Organize a voter registration drive, throw a concert with local bands in your town, or hold an issues forum to talk about what matters to young voters in this election. Get the details at rockthevote.com.
