In the U.S., Asian American immigrants were barred from becoming naturalized citizens until 1952––and by extension, denied a voice in our democracy. For generations, we have fought for the right to vote freely and fairly, and today, we’re still fighting to make sure every voter, no matter what language we use, can cast our ballots.
During each election season, the Asian Law Caucus prepares a wide range of voting rights and voter engagement fact sheets and resources. This page includes our June 2026 resources and will be updated as new guides are available. Translated versions of the materials are also available on this page.
We offer training sessions and workshops on voter registration and know-your-rights for first-time voters. Learn more about volunteer poll monitoring opportunities for the 2026 elections!
