Former IL. Senate Candidate, Jacob Meister Launches The Civil Rights Agenda
The Civil Rights Agenda will be an educational, non-for-profit based in our hometown Chicago. Jacob Meister, who is a lawyer, wants to educate voters about human rights and non-discrimination. This education will lead to voters electing candidates who will initiate/uphold rights for ALL.
According to Gay Chicago Magazine, “There’s a real shortage of lawyers who will handle these cases,” Meister said. “And most employers don’t realize the breadth of the Illinois Human Rights Act.”
Meister said the Voter Project is aimed at identifying LGBT voters and allies, educating them about candidates and issues and encouraging them to vote.
“To me that’s a labor of love,” Meister said. “It doesn’t matter if they’re Democrats or Republicans. It’s about making people aware of where candidates stand on the issues and turning people out to vote.”
