Come join us at our big Voting Rights Lobby Day and Rally Feb 19 in Frankfort! http://kftc.org/vr2026
Together, Kentuckians can build a healthy democracy where everyone’s voice counts – no exceptions. Right now, about 200,000 Kentuckians with felonies in their past still can’t vote and that’s just not right.
Join us in Frankfort at the capitol on February 19th to restore voting rights to Kentuckians with felonies in their past. We'll meet at 8:30am in the Capitol Annex to train and break into small teams and have conversations with legislators throughout the day, then we'll gather at 2:00pm in the capitol annex for a rally led by people directly impacted by this issue, telling their stories.
Join us for just the rally, or hopefully for the whole day.
Bring a photo ID to get into the building and try to arrive early. We encourage people to consider wearing masks. We’ll have extra masks available.
If you have one, please consider wearing a shirt lifting up whatever organization you want to be supporting that day. Wear comfortable shoes too, but otherwise travel light (they're likely to take umbrellas at security, etc.).
Don't worry if you've never done anything like this before. We'll start with a training and lobby teams will be made up of a mix of people who are brand new to this and others who have been doing it for years!
