What is SiX Action?

SiX Action is a national resource and strategy center that engages in issue advocacy to improve people’s lives through transformative public policy.

Why do we think this project is important?

The long-term goal of SiX Action’s defensive democracy advocacy is to build the capacity of state legislators to defend and advance democracy. To do so, SiX Action works to engage and provide resources to state legislators to advance legitimacy in elections and respond to attacks on voting rights at the state level.

How is Democracy Fund Voice supporting SiX Action?

In 2022, Democracy Fund Voice approved a one-year grant of $200,000 to SiX Action to engage and provide resources to state legislators to advance legitimacy in elections and respond to attacks on voting rights at the state level. In 2020, a two-year grant was approved for $300,000.
