Alabama Arise members will gather Oct. 3, 2020, for our annual meeting. And we’re making this year’s event more accessible than ever! Instead of traveling to Montgomery, our members will attend a virtual meeting and cast their votes online.

We’ll share more details about registration and voting in the coming weeks. But first things first: We want to be sure you can participate!

Only Arise members in good standing will be eligible to help choose our 2021 issue priorities. The eligibility deadline is Sept. 4, so make sure you’re on the list before then. Click here to become an individual member of Alabama Arise with your donation today.

At our annual meeting, you’ll learn about policy barriers that limit opportunity and push many Alabamians further into poverty. And you’ll get a chance to vote for the issues you believe should receive Arise’s priority attention in the coming year.

Whatever form the 2021 legislative session may take, Arise will be there to speak out for Alabamians who are struggling to make ends meet. We’ll advocate to end the state sales tax on groceries. We’ll work to expand Medicaid to ensure health coverage for more than 340,000 Alabamians with low incomes. And we’ll push for policy solutions to many other systemic challenges that struggling families face every day.

We need you with us in our movement for dignity, equity and justice for everyone in Alabama. And we want to hear your voice at our annual meeting!
