Laws passed at every level of government affect our daily lives—how we access education, housing, healthcare, safety, and even our right to speak up. A single policy can expand opportunity or reinforce injustice. That’s why it’s critical for community members to stay aware and involved. By understanding proposed legislation and raising our voices when necessary, we can advocate for policies that reflect our values and protect those most impacted by harmful decisions. Your awareness—and your action—can help shape a more just and equitable future.
