OUR WORK

Free & Fair Elections

Free and fair elections are something Americans have fought for, served for, and sacrificed to protect. The right to vote should not depend on where you live or what party you support.

Every eligible voter deserves the freedom to cast a ballot and to be confident that their vote is counted accurately. That includes voters who cast their ballots in person and it includes voters serving their country overseas, military families, seniors, people with disabilities, rural voters, and others who rely on voting by mail.

TCN works to ensure electoral integrity and expand access to the ballot — because elections should be transparent, representative, and worthy of public trust.


01

Voting by Mail

Voting by mail helps service members, seniors, rural voters, people with disabilities, caregivers, and millions of other eligible Americans participate securely and lawfully. It is a lawful, secure, and essential option for millions of Americans and takes place under rules set by their state and administered by election officials.


Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA)

This federal framework requires States and territories to allow covered military and overseas voters to register and vote absentee in federal elections.


Protecting Grace Periods That Allow Mail-In Ballots To Arrive

A ballot mailed by Election Day is a vote cast on time. If the delivery of that vote is delayed by a mail system the voter does not control — a slow truck, a ship, a base mailroom, a foreign postal service  – the voter should not be penalized. That's punishing people for circumstances beyond their control.


02

Project HALO: Making Sure Every Eligible Voter Can Participate in Elections with Confidence

People want to be able to vote in a way that is clear, accessible, and fair.

We are partnering with trusted community members to create a welcoming, celebratory, nonpartisan presence around elections – so every voter feels safe, confident, and supported.
