This week, the Washington Post reported that a number of organizations—the ACLU and the NAACP among them—are leading a nationwide push to get as many felons registered to vote as possible. You read that right—felons, not ex-cons, but current inmates. The Post noted that in Ohio, "The NAACP will hold a voter-registration day at the Justice Center in downtown Cleveland this month to register 'people caught up in the criminal justice system.'" And in California, activists will be at the jails tomorrow to "register people visiting prisoners and encourage them to take registration cards to their incarcerated friends or family members, some of whom can legally vote."

I've heard of all kinds of voter registration efforts, but this could be the first time there’s been a coordinated effort aimed specifically at those behind bars. And I hope it will be a wake-up call to men and women of faith. The Left is energized in a way I have not seen since the ‘60s. What about you? Have you contacted friends and family members to find out whether they are registered to vote? Are you registered to vote? If not, please visit our website at www.ouramericanvalues.org today.
