Vote for Our Communities: Get Involved with Ballot Initiatives

In 2024, we have a huge opportunity to change our communities for the better by getting paid sick leave, securing the fundamental right to abortion, and repealing a private school voucher scheme. OutNebraska volunteers can help us create a better Nebraska by volunteering at an event educating people about the Paid Sick Leave, Protect Our Rights (pro-choice abortion), and Support Our Schools (pro-public school) campaigns.

You can head over to our friends at Second House Collaborative to join door knocking canvasses across the state. Or, choose the ballot initiative you want to volunteer with below.
