Our 2012 Primaries GOTV campaign has come to a close, but we'll soon be gearing up for another campaign come September.

Our campaign to get out the vote was a major component of the year-round work we are doing to create stronger communities, where colonia residents have a voice for social change. And a major part of that voice is our vote.

Since the 2008 presidential campaign, the members of the Rio Grande Valley Equal Voice Network have been actively encouraging the civic participation of their constituents from across the Valley.

This participation is not limited to voting or encouraging communities to turn out the vote. Rather, the members of the RGV-EV Network seek to have the residents of Valley play an active role in the decisions that would impact the lives of our families.
