Senator Vincent Hughes introduces voter registration resolution

There are 8.6 million registered voters in Pennsylvania, but another 1.5 million Pennsylvanians are of voting age but not registered.

The right to vote — and the participation in that right — is one of those most fundamental aspects of our democracy. Yet, it continues to come under attack through efforts in some states to suppress voters’ rights. To register to vote anywhere in the country, visit https://www.usa.gov/register-to-vote.
