Learn what’s coming, who’s impacted, and how we fight back—together.

A new threat to voting rights is on the horizon in Michigan—and it’s targeting those already pushed to the margins. Join us next Friday for a critical VAAC Friday Community Meeting focused on Documentary Proof of Citizenship (DPOC) proposals and what they mean for our communities.

What we’ll cover:

  • What is Documentary Proof of Citizenship?
    Understand the proposed changes—and how they differ from Michigan’s current laws.
  • Where do things stand?
    Get the latest from the May 16 Board of State Canvassers meeting, and learn what’s coming next as petitions prepare to circulate June 1.
  • Who would be impacted—and how?
    Hear how returning citizens, low-income voters, the unhoused, and others would face new barriers.
  • Why does this matter?
    These initiatives could roll back hard-won progress and disenfranchise tens of thousands of voters.
  • What can we do?
    Find out how to get involved in the growing Decline to Sign movement and protect voting access for all.

This session is about raising awareness, building strategy, and moving in collective defense of democracy. Whether you’re new to VAAC or a longtime member, your voice is needed.

RSVP today and invite others. The fight for voting rights belongs to all of us
