Funny or Die, Climate Group Team for Voter Registration Comedy Tour
Funny or Die is teaming with Tom Steyer’s NextGen Climate for a comedy voter registration tour, starting on Thursday at East Los Angeles College.
The “Jokes for Votes” tour will feature a rotating group of comics, including Sarah Silverman, Reggie Watts, Kumail Nanjiani, Demetri Martin, Baron Vaughn, James Adomian, Kate Berlant, and Taylor Tomlinson.
“We can’t wait to address the urgent issues facing us — climate change, growing income inequality, and racial justice and gender equality,” Steyer said. “We’ve launched the largest voter registration drive in California history to register hundreds of thousands of new California voters this year. This unique comedy tour is part of our plan to mobilize millennials in every corner of California.”
The tour will make another 19 stops in California before the voter registration deadline on Oct. 24.
