"This historic election deserves a historic election protection effort," said Barbara Arnwine, Executive Director, Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law. "This major coalition will offer comprehensive resources with one simple goal - to ensure all eligible voters are given the opportunity to exercise their rights."

The centerpiece of those efforts are the free and nonpartisan hotlines (1-866-OUR VOTE for English speakers and 1-888-VE-Y-VOTA for Spanish speakers) which connect voters with questions or problems to legal experts that can offer impartial and confidential advice. Fully trained volunteers have already started answering voters' calls and are helping resolve voting issues nationwide, now and through Election Day.
