 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 2022 Midterm 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\nJoin us to learn more about your right to vote and the voting 
 process. Then Let Us Go Vote!\n\nSPEAKER:\n\nDebi Davis, MSW, is a person
