Creating change — from ending hunger to empowering women and girls — starts with electing leaders who will champion global issues and put social justice front and center on the world stage.
Elections Matter
The world faces unprecedented challenges. More people are displaced now than at any other time in recent history. Conflict, climate change, and economic challenges are driving up humanitarian needs. Millions of people are going to bed hungry as a worsening global hunger crisis looms and women and girls are disproportionately impacted.
The future of our world depends on what actions we take now. We need strong U.S. leadership at the highest level to create a more just and equal word for all.
That is why it is so important to vote. Together, U.S. voters can elect Congressional champions who support actions that benefit current and future generations and create the world we want to see.
Why Your Vote Matters
In 2024, 35 Senate seats and all 435 House of Representative seats are on the ballot. The stakes are high and critically important as we near Election Day:
- Compared to a decade ago, there are more humanitarian crises, impacting the lives of more people, across the globe. Nearly 300 million people worldwide need humanitarian assistance to survive.
- Women and girls are undervalued, underpaid, and underrepresented in leadership around the world. One in three countries are either making no progress at all towards gender equality or moving in the wrong direction.
- Millions of families are struggling to feed themselves amid conflict, disease, and climate shocks.
- Lifesaving U.S. foreign assistance programs face damaging budget cuts at a time when current funding levels are not enough to meet global needs.
