Inspiring Women SUMMER 2020

Create successful ePaper yourself

Turn your PDF publications into a flip-book with our unique Google optimized e-Paper software.

(see link on the right side of this page). If your<br />

regular ballot arrives after you have sent off your<br />

FWAB, vote and send it, too, and let the local<br />

election official decide which one to count.<br />

3. Promote voting by all overseas Americans<br />

From now until Election Day, but as soon as<br />

possible, use every network and connection you<br />

have to share this information with other<br />

Americans and urge them to register and vote.<br />

You can work through your FAWCO club, social<br />

media accounts, church, school, business, etc.<br />

etc. Click here for links to outreach materials from<br />

the US Vote Foundation and FVAP.<br />

FAWCO resources<br />

FAWCO’s US Voting Committee encourages and<br />

assists US overseas citizens to vote by providing a<br />

dedicated website and information and training to volunteers in FAWCO member clubs, and<br />

helping with publicity. The Committee also works to reduce the barriers to voting from overseas<br />

imposed by federal and state legislation, through such means as Overseas Americans Week<br />

and work with partners such as the US Vote Foundation and FVAP. It publishes monthly articles<br />

on the FAWCO website, and summarizes and links to them in News in Brief and the US Liaison<br />

Bulletin. Email the FAWCO US Voting Committee (voting@fawco.org) with questions or<br />

suggestions, or requests to join.<br />
