Legal Assistance Team

Work for a Fairer Democracy

Each year, at least 100-200 candidates in New York City are thrown off the ballot because of technical defects in the paperwork they file to run for office. Without the costly legal help to fight these challenges, large numbers of candidates are unable to get their name on the ballot and voters suffer. To combat these barriers, Grassroots Initiative initiates lawsuits, as needed, to preserve candidates' right to ballot access and protect voters' right to a choice in elections.

Grassroots Initiative is seeking lawyers to join our Legal Assistance Team, providing pro bono legal assistance to candidates of all stripes. If you are interested, please fill out and submit the form below.
