AMSYS and Fair Bank are emphasizing the importance of registering and exercising the right to vote leading up to Election Day on Tuesday, November 8th
HOUSTON, Oct.14, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A voter drive was held at AMSYS on Wednesday, October 5th from 1:00 pm until 5:00 pm. More than 80 people attended in person and an additional 100 attended via Zoom. Volunteer deputy registrars were present to register individuals from 1:00 pm until 5:00 pm. This educational event offered constituents an opportunity to understand the importance of local, state and national political issues.
Also, voter registration forms can be picked up from 9 to 5 Monday through Friday at AMSYS, which is located at 10101 Southwest Fwy #570, Houston, TX 77074.
AMSYS Chief Operating Officer and Houston resident Sunshine Lane is the driving force behind the company's voter registration drives. She states that "As a woman in an executive leadership role, and a single mother, I know the importance of having a voice, and I make sure to teach my son the same. We are proactively encouraging our employees and neighbors to register and vote for elected officials to represent their voices. Elections, including local elections, really matter. They touch our schools, our security, and our livelihood. They touch on everything."
Co-sponsoring this event was Fair Bank, a Fintech founded in Houston. Chief Business Officer of Fair Bank, Ms. Azeemeh Zaheer stated, "Many people mistakenly believe their votes won't matter in the broad scheme of things, but for local elections, we know that every vote is important and that individuals really can make a difference."
