On July 4, 2026, the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, we will officially announce a Declaration of Independence from Political Advertising, and a new web platform that enables Americans to join this us by informing their votes.

Starting September 1, InformYourVote.com will launch affordability debate websites for each of the ten closest midterm Senate races and 18 closest congressional House contests. We will recruit two dozen local coordination teams (“Civics EMT’S”) in each district to petition their congressional candidates in these races to provide video responses to affordability solution questions, and then to help market these videos locally through social media.

The mission of InformYourVote.com is to replace, for as many voters as possible, an election information system dominated by multi-million dollar AI-targeted advertisements that provide vague promises and little substance about what candidates will do for voters once elected, and which are funded by large special interest donors.

To provide hope, transparency, and a government more responsive to the needs of its citizens, InformYourVote.com is committed to building public awareness around specific federal legislative solutions that make child care, housing, health care, energy and food more affordable to all Americans.

In order to provide a neutral, non-partisan platform for voters to learn about where congressional candidates stand on solutions that affect their lives, we are a 100% independent effort. We receive no funding, advertising, or advice, from any political party, candidate, or existing organization.

InformYourVote.com will request that both the Republican and Democratic candidates in each of the 28 closest midterm elections (18 House and 10 Senate races) provide short video answers about which specific legislative solutions they support for each of five essential affordability issues. 

We will be hiring two local part-time coordinators in each of the 28 closest election districts to manage a petition of local voters and provide public pressure on both the Republican and Democratic Party candidate to provide answers on what SPECIFIC laws they would support to address affordability if they won the election.

To avoid vague answers that fall short of informing our votes, we are asking candidates to respond to whether they would support our proposed solutions for each of the affordability challenges that affect most voters, or which specific legislative solutions they would instead support.

The litmus test InformYourVote.com used to develop our proposed non-partisan affordability solutions for child care, housing, health care, energy and wages was that each legislative solution:   

    -Had to be federal so members of congress could vote for them if they won the midterm election.

    -Had to move the needle on affordability by significantly affecting the economics of millions of people nationally.

    -Would not increase taxes for anyone except the nation’s 989 billionaires. 

    -Enables free market solutions without increasing the federal deficit.
