We wanted to share this report-back from Tayna Fogle, which is only part of the long list of events she's been a part of since late August related to Voter Empowerment and our work to restore voting rights to former felons.  It's an incredible marathon of events - inspiring, but I think you could also get tuckered out just by reading it.
