Michelle Obama Makes Passionate Speech About Voter Registration:

'We All Deserve to Have Our Voices Heard'


Michelle Obama wants people to get out and vote in November.

Through her nonprofit organization When We All Vote, Mrs. Obama teamed up with The Roots during the 13th Annual Roots Picnic on Saturday to encourage people to register to vote for the upcoming 2020 presidential election.

During the virtual event, the former first lady, 56, shared a passionate plea about voter registration.

"These past few months have been pretty heavy for just about everyone and the truth is, we still got our work cut out for us in the weeks and months ahead," she said. "I want to remind everybody that we got an election coming up and it couldn't be more important that everybody makes their voice heard this time around."

"If you aren't sure where to get started you can take the first step by making sure you are registered to vote," the mother of two said, adding that people can text ROOTS to 56005, as well as head to WhenWeAllVote.org, for more information.
