About

Our goal is to advance democracy by effectively reaching immigrant voters

According to the US census report published in 2021, the United States is not only browner, it is a country of immigrants who are naturalized citizens. On average 860,000 new citizens/eligible voters are sworn in every year in the United States.

Since 2000, the size of the immigrant electorate has nearly doubled to 23.2 million – exponential growth from just 6.2 percent in the 2000 presidential election.

Our mission is to provide tools to help campaigns and organizations effectively reach immigrant voters across the United States.
