 way to have a say about how our local, state and federal governments 
 operate. Voting for laws and candidates of your choice is your opportunity 
 to make sure the government serves its citizens well.\n\nVoters with 
 certain disabilities may need additional resources to access their right to 
 vote. Vote-by-Mail in California can be part of that access. For the 2020 
 Election, ballots are being mailed to all voters right now. Additional 
 resources are also available.  \n\nThis webinar will focus on:\n\n--Why 
 it’s Important to Vote\n--Your Voting Rights\n--How to Register to 
 Vote\n--How to Cast your Vote & Make Your Voice Heard\n--Recent Changes to 
 the Voting Process\n\nSo join us to learn more about your right to vote and 
 the voting process. Then Let’s Go Vote!\n\nSPEAKER:\n\nDebi Davis is a
