Check Your Voting Registration Status Ahead of Arizona’s Deadline
In recognition of the vital connection between civic participation and community health, the Arizona Medical Political Action Committee (ArMPAC) encourages you to check your voter registration ahead of Arizona’s voter registration deadline for the upcoming primary election on Tuesday, July 21.
How to Check Your Registration Status
Primary elections are where huge decisions get made. Turnout is often much lower than in November, which means your vote can carry even more weight in shaping the policies that affect you, our patients, and our communities. Take 30 seconds right now to verify that you are registered to vote at your current address: vote.health/arma
What’s At Stake for Healthcare
There is a lot at stake for physicians and their patients in today’s political landscape. Policies that affect public health priorities, patients’ affordability and access to healthcare, and your profession as a physician are decided on early in our primary election. We cannot afford for healthcare voices to be missing from that process.
Other Ways to Support Civic Engagement
There are other easy ways to support ArMPAC’s mission of connecting voting and health, all while staying nonpartisan. Small actions go a long way in making civic engagement part of everyday care.
