Haudenosaunee Confederacy - World's Oldest Continuous Democracy

How do we strengthen this gift?

The oldest, continuously functioning democracy was working very well on this land (present day North America) for centuries before the Spanish settled Florida.  Two short videos about the Haudenosaunee Confederacy.  See democracy with fresh eyes.

Our job is to keep democracy strong and vibrant.  Helping voters is fundamental civic involvement.  Volunteer now.  We are stewards of democracy.  We follow respectfully in the footsteps of democracy's founders, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy.

Why volunteer?

I see people nod and smile as they read our early in-person voting information.  They look up say “thank you!” and often take more for others.  Thanks to all of us  (especially Linea, Terri, and Dorothy) for making a wealth of excellent information and making it available!  \O/

They won't let the majority of senators vote.  And certainly they wouldn't want the majority of people to vote. "
