Volunteer Testimonials

There are no testimonials available for this state at this time, but hear from other state volunteers below.

"I am deeply interested in working to advance structural democracy reforms that improve the policy process to ensure policy is reflective of public support. While I work on democracy in my full time role, I volunteer with UpVote VA and recently began exploring volunteering with the DC RCV ballot initiative. I think the work happening at Veterans For All Voters is exciting and looking to support the cause."

Army National Guard Veteran
"I read somewhere that, "today’s veterans often come home to find that, although they’re willing to die for their country, they’re not sure how to live for it. It’s hard to know how to live for a country that regularly treats itself apart along every possible political and demographic boundary." Love what this movement represents, at the highest ideal of what this country represents, leveraging veterans' can-do attitude to set the example."
