Our partnership approachPOLITICAL & LEGISLATIVE POLICIES
What we believe.
What we push for.
Five priorities for a fairer future. Explore our positions, the legislative changes we support, and the official sources that explain the starting point.
UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE
Healthcare for everyone.
Push the Vote supports universal healthcare: everyone should be able to get the care they need without cost forcing them to choose between their health and their everyday needs. Access to care should not depend on a person’s job or income.
Our legislative priorities
- Expand access to comprehensive, affordable coverage and protect people from gaps in care.
- Make primary, preventive, mental health, and substance-use care accessible alongside hospital and specialist services.
- Lower prescription drug and out-of-pocket costs, with clear information about what care will cost.
- Strengthen access in rural and underserved communities and address unequal health outcomes.
The goal and the starting point
Universal healthcare is our policy goal. This platform does not select a single financing model or claim that universal coverage is already guaranteed. Today, people obtain coverage through different public and private arrangements, each with its own rules.

These are advocacy priorities, not medical or insurance advice. For coverage details, consult the relevant program or plan.
REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS
Your body. Your decisions.
Push the Vote supports the freedom to make reproductive healthcare decisions with dignity, privacy, and access to qualified care. Income, insurance, or location should not prevent people from obtaining the care they need.
Our legislative priorities
- Protect access to abortion and contraception through federal and state legislation.
- Protect patients’ privacy and the ability of healthcare professionals to provide evidence-based reproductive care.
- Expand access to prenatal, pregnancy, postpartum, and fertility care.
- Address financial and geographic barriers to reproductive healthcare, especially in underserved communities.
Why legislation matters
In Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization (2022), the Supreme Court held that the U.S. Constitution does not confer a right to abortion and overruled Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. Our position is to restore and protect reproductive freedom through law. The ruling is historical context, not a complete guide to the laws that apply in any state today.

These are advocacy priorities, not medical or legal advice. Laws and access vary by location and can change.
CIVIL RIGHTS & VOTING RIGHTS
Restore protections. Strengthen rights.
Push the Vote supports restoring and strengthening civil rights and voting rights protections so that equal treatment and meaningful participation are realities in everyday life.
Two landmark laws. A continuing responsibility.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964 addressed discrimination in areas including public accommodations and employment. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 addressed racial discrimination in voting. These are distinct laws. Our call to restore and strengthen protections does not mean either law was repealed in full.
Our legislative priorities
- Strengthen enforcement of civil rights protections and access to remedies when discrimination occurs.
- Update voting rights safeguards to prevent discriminatory rules and practices, with effective federal oversight and enforcement.
- Support accessible registration and voting options, disability access, and language assistance.
- Protect voters and election workers from intimidation and make election information clear and reliable.
We support legislation that carries the promise of these landmark laws forward and responds to gaps in protection. These are goals for legislative action, not a claim that a particular bill has passed.

IMMIGRATION REFORM
A fair path to citizenship.
Push the Vote supports comprehensive immigration reform with a pathway to citizenship. A fair, orderly, and humane immigration system should respect people’s dignity, keep families connected, and give communities a more stable future.
Our legislative priorities
- Create a clear, workable pathway to citizenship for undocumented residents through legislation.
- Improve application processing and reduce backlogs while preserving fair review and due process.
- Protect family unity and provide a fair process for people seeking humanitarian protection.
- Protect immigrant workers from exploitation and support equal enforcement of workplace standards.
A policy goal, not a new application program
The pathway described here is a legislative goal. This website does not create an immigration status or offer an application process. Naturalization under existing law has specific requirements, and individual circumstances matter.
Official source: USA.gov guide to becoming a U.S. citizen through naturalization
This is policy advocacy, not legal advice or an eligibility assessment. Do not send immigration records or other sensitive documents through our general contact form.
GUN CONTROL & FIREARM SAFETY
Safer communities. Fewer lives lost.
Push the Vote supports gun control and firearm safety policies that reduce gun violence and protect people in their homes, schools, workplaces, and communities.
The goal: fewer lives harmed.
Our focus is on prevention, public safety, and evidence-informed policy. The details of any legislation should be evaluated carefully, including its effectiveness, implementation, constitutional protections, and due process.
Prevention and the current framework
The CDC describes a comprehensive approach to preventing firearm injury, including community prevention efforts and secure firearm storage to reduce unauthorized access.
Under federal law, licensed firearms dealers generally must conduct a National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check before transferring a firearm to a person without a federal firearms license, unless a legal exception applies. State requirements can also apply.
Official source: CDC, preventing firearm injury and death
Official source: ATF, federal firearms licensee reference guide
This is a broad advocacy priority, not an endorsement of a specific bill or a complete statement of current firearm law. For legal requirements, consult the responsible federal, state, and local authorities.
