324: We're Here for Freedom with Mi Vecino (Devon Murphy-Anderson & Alex Berrios)

from The Lincoln Project · host The Lincoln Project

Host Reed Galen is joined by Devon Murphy-Anderson and Alex Berrios, the Co-Founders of Mi Vecino, the first year-round, boots-on-the-ground voting rights organization in Florida that’s on a mission to register, educate, and empower Hispanic, multicultural, and first-time voters who’ve been historically and systemically marginalized, silenced, or ignored. They discuss Mi Vecino's recent pivot to working on the Reproductive Freedom Ballot Initiative in Florida, the importance of year-round organizing and engaging voters (especially Latino voters) through face-to-face conversations, and why it's so important to frame the abortion issue as a matter of freedom. Plus, Ron DeSantis is terrible for Florida. If you'd like to learn more about the work of Mi Vecino, be sure to check out MiVecinoFlorida.com. For more from Reed Galen, subscribe to “The Home Front”.
