At Gen Now Votes, we hit the streets to talk to residents about the issues they care about. We also inform them about important dates, who’s running for office, and where they stand on our most important issues. We also educate voters on the absentee ballot process and register people to vote.
In 2019, we canvassed thousands of Bridgeport residents. Over and over again, we heard the following issues are the most important to our neighbors:
- Education funding
- Access to healthcare
- Potholes and better streets
- Homelessness and affordable housing
- Government corruption
- Youth programs
- Mass incarceration
- Higher minimum wage
- Access to childcare
