When We All Vote is a leading national, nonpartisan organization Mrs. Obama launched in 2018 on a mission to change the culture around voting and increase participation in every election. In a statement, Lopez confirmed why she signed on: “The future of our children depends on the health of our democracy, that’s why I am honored to join When We All Vote’s critical mission of protecting access to the ballot boxes and increasing voter participation among young people. I hope you join us in this important moment in history.”
When We All Vote, an initiative of Civic Nation, was launched by Obama in 2018 as a national, nonpartisan initiative. News of the co-chairs comes ahead of a rally that will feature Miranda.
