Equal Voice Convention 2012Families will text their votes on issues on May 20 to contribute their voice in updating the 2012 National Family Platform.

In 2008, some 30,000 families participated in the yearlong Equal Voice for America’s Families campaign, which created – for the first time – a comprehensive platform of values and policy recommendations by and for low-income families.

The 2008 issues focused on child care, education, employment, criminal justice reform, immigration reform, housing, health care and safe communities. Some of the policy recommendations made in 2008 have been addressed, but many have not.

Anyone with an Internet connection can join the convention at http://www.equalvoice2012.org/. Watch the event live at 12 p.m. PDT on May 20, 2012 and vote on the issues affecting your family!
