IssueVoter





IssueVoter gives everyone an ability to influence change on issues that matter to them. IssueVoter is a technology that allows people to be heard and keep their elected officials accountable. Maria's experiences from being a typical citizen and campaign manager led to her inspiration to create IssueVoter. The Mission is to: • Extend engagement beyond elections by empowering constituents and informing elected officials • Change behaviors and fix aspects about politics that prevent progress and keep voters disengaged, and • Reshape politics and improve democracy. How IssueVoter Works: 1) Choose issues like education or healthcare. 2) Receive alerts about new bills that match your interests. We summarize them for you. Use IssueVoter to stay in-the-know automatically. 3) Vote Support or Oppose. We'll send it to your Rep. Share your opinion in one click. 4) Log outcomes automatically with your profile. See how your rep voted. Keep Congress accountable.
