I hope you all are doing well. My name is Diana Bui, DC resident by way of California. I currently work at the Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance (APALA) and a board member of NAPAWF-DC. I wanted to share with you information about the first every National Voter Registration Day (NVRD), which is today! I’ve attached a press release in Vietnamese, Tagalog and Chinese. Please feel free to forward it along! In 2008, 6 million Americans didn’t vote because they missed a registration deadline or didn’t know how to register. In comparison to any other racial/ethnic group, our community has the largest voter registration deficit. This year, we want to make sure that no one is left out. And we’re so glad we’re working together to make that a reality! APALA has some major developments in the online voter registration tool at everyvotecounts2012.org. You can encourage family member, friends and colleagues to register online at EveryVoteCounts2012.org!
