IssueVoter
Cutting through today’s political rhetoric, this nonpartisan platform is bringing the conversation back to the issues. Maria Yuan WG10 founded IssueVoter as a convenient way for everyday constituents to make their voices heard and hold elected representatives accountable. The nonprofit organization’s new iOS app — launched this summer — alerts users to legislation they care about, provides statements from proponents and opponents of those bills, and lets users share their opinions directly with lawmakers. The app also generates a scorecard for each user that tallies how often their representatives vote the way they’d prefer on specific issues.
