Decatur Alumnae Chapter Position Statement
Against Georgia’s Anti-Voting Legislation

After a historic election season with record turnout, some Georgia legislators proposed legislation to restrict access to the polls. This legislation reduces the availability of ballot boxes, removes no excuse absentee ballots, and even prevents offering water or snacks to those standing in long voting lines.
