Who We Are
Welcome to Democracy Votes!
We are a team of dedicated individuals who believe in the power of education and training to empower the general public to exercise their right to vote. Our organization is committed to promoting voter education and training initiatives that help people understand their voting rights, register to vote, and participate in elections.
Our mission is to ensure that every eligible voter has access to the ballot box and can make informed decisions on election day. To achieve this, we work tirelessly to provide accessible and comprehensive voter education and training programs that cater to diverse communities across the country. We believe that by increasing civic engagement and promoting a culture of voting, we can strengthen democracy and build a more just and equitable society for all.
Our organization is proud to be nonpartisan, meaning we do not align ourselves with any political party or candidate. Our sole focus is on promoting voter education and training, and we do this through a range of initiatives including workshops, seminars, online resources, and community outreach programs. Our team has a history of working with for the people of Texas and have a history of working with Texas state legislators and advocacy groups such as NAACP and the Texas Civil Rights Project.
At our core, we believe that democracy works best when everyone has a voice and is empowered to participate in the political process. By working together to promote voter education and training, we can build a stronger, more inclusive, and more vibrant democracy that truly represents the will of the people.
“Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.”

Our Values
Educate. Empower. Organize.
Democracy Votes is committed to promoting fair and equitable access to the ballot box for all voters in our state. At the heart of our work are the core principles of Educate, Empower, and Organize. These values guide everything we do, from advocating for voting rights legislation to providing education and resources to voters across our diverse communities.
We believe that education is key to promoting informed and engaged voters. Texas has some of the most complicated voting laws in the nation, and we know that misinformation and confusion can lead to voter disenfranchisement. To that end, we work to provide accurate and accessible information about voting laws, procedures, and deadlines in Texas. We believe that everyone has the right to participate in our democracy, and we strive to make sure that every voter in Texas has the knowledge they need to exercise that right.
Empowerment is another core principle that guides our work. We believe that all Texans should have the tools they need to take an active role in shaping their communities and their state. We are committed to empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their voting choices and to advocate for the issues that matter to them. By providing resources and support, we aim to ensure that every voter in Texas feels empowered to make their voice heard.
Finally, we believe that organizing is a powerful tool for change. By bringing together like-minded individuals and organizations in Texas, we can build coalitions and partnerships that have the power to effect real change. We believe in the power of collective action, and we work to build strong, inclusive networks of advocates and activists who share our commitment to voting rights.
