Much attention in 2022 will be paid to what politicians are doing about democracy.

But you may be wondering: what can *I* do to support #democracy in 2022?

I put some ideas down here in a thread:

In 2022, you can #volunteer. Whether that’s helping your neighbors register to vote or becoming a poll worker, your time and talent can help advance democracy. Connecting with local groups or your local election office can help you find an opportunity you like.

Likewise, support and join groups who are advocating for voters in your state. There are many great state-based organizations, and many pro-democracy groups like @CommonCause & @LWV organize state chapters. @CampaignLegal works in partnership with state & local groups.

You can also learn more about the election processes in your community. It’s important to get information from trusted election officials, who know your state the best. As a start, @CampaignLegal has an explainer on what happens after you cast your ballot:

Additionally, brainstorm how you, your networks and organizations you are involved with can contribute to free and fair elections. We need people from all sectors and all walks of American life contributing to the pro-democracy movement. How can you help?

Donating to @CampaignLegal will also help advance democracy in 2022. We will be advocating for fair elections, the #FreedomToVote, #FairMaps, transparency in our political system and more. You can use the link below to donate; it will be put to good use!

Finally, #vote. Show that it matters to you. One of @CampaignLegal's partners, @VoteAmerica, has information about how to check your registration & more.

We can advance democracy in 2022, but we need you, too. Democracy belongs to us, the American people.
