En Miércoles 29 de abril, Voting Access for All Coalition (VAAC) will be in Lansing for Capitol Day 2026 alongside michigan unido, Libertad reproductiva para todos en Michigan, Los votantes negros importan, Justicia maternal, and partners from across the state.

This statewide day of action brings community members together to engage directly with lawmakers on issues including derecho al voto, libertad reproductiva, healthcare access, y justicia económica.

VAAC will be meeting with legislators throughout the day to talk about policies that impact access to voting and representation in Michigan. Our team, including our high school interns, will take part in these meetings and see firsthand how policy decisions shape civic participation.

As part of these conversations, we will be educating lawmakers on:

• Voting Access for Returning Citizens (SB 603 / HB 4812)
• Ending prison gerrymandering (SB 537)

We will also be joining coalition partners Toda votación es local, Causa común, Judíos por una democracia secular, and others, in bringing a shared pledge to lawmakers that calls for protecting voting access and opposing efforts that create barriers to participation. This includes distributing the pledge to legislators and continuing that outreach in the months ahead.

This work reflects a coordinated effort across organizations to respond to ongoing attacks on voting access and to reinforce that communities across Michigan are paying attention and engaged.
