We're here at the #NCGA for the press conference on HB 958, a harmful elections bill that will make voting more difficult for North Carolinians and will further politicize election administration. If passed, this would have a direct impact on the midterm elections.
Contact your representative now and urge them to vote NO on HB 958: https://act.acluofnc.org/a/rejecthb958 HB 958 would further politicize election administration and make it harder for people to vote — all just a few months before the 2026 midterm elections.
Reject mega elections bill that blocks voter access
