What’s it like to live without health care? What keeps you up at night? What does our next President need to do to improve our lives?

SEIU members from across the country are documenting how politics affects our lives through photos and videos of themselves, their families, their co-workers and their communities.

These stories offer an unscripted look at what it’s like to work and raise a family in America and what our next President needs to do to create a new American Dream.

We want your story.

Post your own videos on YouTube, or your photos on Flickr and tag them myvoice.myvote.
