VOTE v. Louisiana
Along with our grassroots partner Voice of the Experienced (VOTE), Advancement Project's national office is fighting to restore the vote in Louisiana for more than 71,000 Louisiana citizens on probation and parole. By serving as co-counsel on the VOTE v. Louisiana appeal process, we are joining a monumental fight to affirm the right to vote in the state with the highest rate of incarceration in the country. The effort is part of an ongoing appeal of a trial court ruling that allows Louisiana to continue to deny the ballot to tens of thousands of Louisianans.
