In order to protect voting rights across Rhode Island, we need your help.
The Rhode Island General Assembly did not take up the Rhode Island Voting Rights Act for a vote in the 2026 legislative session, but legislators have expressed their interest in moving the bill forward in 2027.
In the meantime, here are ways that you and your network can act to support voting rights and empower voters in Rhode Island.

Join the RIVRA Campaign
The Rhode Island Voting Rights Act (RIVRA) Campaign is led by Rhode Island Voting Access Coalition (RIVAC) members. Campaign partners promote the RIVRA, advocate for its passage during the off-season and the 2027 legislative session, and ensure that the voices of impacted communities are centered in the campaign. If you are part of an organization that support voting rights, sign up to join the campaign!
Volunteer for Election Protection Efforts
Every election year, volunteers are mobilized to help our fellow Rhode Islanders navigate the voting process and cast their votes without obstruction, confusion, or intimidation.
Our nonpartisan voter protection program seeks to ensure every eligible voter who wants to vote can do so, and every vote is counted accurately. This program is not affiliated with any party, candidate, or issue campaign.
