Who Gets to Vote: Power, Politics, and the BallotA Virtual Conversation on the Future of Voting RightsEvent DetailsMonday, April 13, 2026 2:30 PM – 3:30 PM ET Location: Online (RSVP Here) About the EventThe right to vote is often described as the front door of democracy. Today, for many, that door feels narrower. Not closed, but harder to pass through. Across the country, the pressure is real. Voter rolls change. New paperwork is required. Polling places move. Language can become a barrier. At the same time, confusion spreads about who can vote and how, especially in Latino, Black, and immigrant communities. Even before Election Day, the lines are drawn in ways that shape who is heard. This is not abstract. It is happening now, and it will shape the 2026 elections. Featured SpeakersThis conversation brings together two of the nation’s leading Latino Secretaries of State: - Cisco Aguilar, Secretary of State of Nevada
- Adrian Fontes, Secretary of State of Arizona
They oversee elections in critical battleground states. They work where policy meets practice. They will speak directly about what they are seeing, what is at risk, and what it will take to protect the vote. What This Conversation Will Cover- The impact of voter roll changes and documentation requirements
- How disinformation is shaping voter participation
- Barriers facing Latino and other underserved communities
- The role of election officials in protecting access and trust
- What must happen now to ensure fair and accessible elections in 2026
