Vote Your Values!

Your vote matters!

Our wonderful Toward Zero Waste volunteers have found some great resources to use as you navigate this election.

At Toward Zero waste, we feel one of the most important “R”s is Request. By voting, you are putting in your Request for the kind of world you want to see. Understanding where candidates stand on the issues that matter most to you will help you cast your vote in confidence, so we hope these guides will help you make the best choices as you take part in our democracy.
