Join the Committee of Seventy and the League of Women Voters of Philadelphia for the Voter Hub at FDR Park! Eligible citizens can register to vote, apply for a mail-in ballot, get their questions answered, and discover free, nonpartisan resources in several languages to prepare them to vote in the May 16th primary election. We'll also have bilingual volunteers on-hand and election related crafts for kids.

The Committee of Seventy released a statement in response to news of a second court order regarding the Philadelphia Sheriff’s Office. This action follows up on their December directive for the Sheriff’s Office to address staffing issues that have caused unsafe conditions in our criminal justice system.

Seventy is an advocate for improving elections in Philadelphia and PA, and works tirelessly to educate and engage voters so they can confidently cast their ballot twice a year, every year.

Philadelphia took a significant step forward in the 2011 redistricting cycle when several of the most gerrymandered districts in the country were finally addressed. This was due, in no small part, to substantial advocacy both in the communities negatively affected and by champions within City Hall of a more fair map that strove for equitable representation.

Seventy works to provide access to information on Philadelphia taxing and budgeting activities.
