Vetted Conversations is a podcast created by We the Veterans & Military Families to help Americans - especially the veteran community - better understand their rights and responsibilities as citizens and how they can get involved to reinforce our constitutional republic and representative democracy. We are focused on bringing Americans together to help create a more perfect union. This podcast was formerly titled Vet our Democracy and was rebranded with the launch of Season 2 to reflect our expanded goals.

Ep. 6: Vet The Vote: How veterans teamed up with the NFL to tackle America's Election Poll Worker Crisis + Special interview with former NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue and Gen. George Casey, USA (ret.)
In 2022, America faced a significant challenge: we didn’t have enough election poll workers. Each election, around 1.2 million volunteers are needed to set up polling places, verify IDs, issue ballots, tally votes, and report the results.
In this episode, we dive into how a dedicated team of American patriots—both veterans and civilians—stepped up and filled more than half of that need in 2022. We’ll also share how we’re gearing up to launch Vet The Vote 2024 at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas, Nevada, during the week of February 5, 2024. This year, our mission is to recruit 100,000 election poll workers. Are you ready to join us and serve our nation as a poll worker this year?
