Strengthening Civic Leadership in Austin and Across Texas
March Matters is a nonpartisan coalition helping more Texans participate in the most important and least understood elections: the March primaries. These elections decide who appears on the November ballot and who ultimately leads our communities.
In Texas, only a small share of eligible voters participate in primaries. That gap shapes policy, representation, and long term outcomes for cities like Austin.
March Matters partners with trusted institutions including businesses, faith communities, nonprofits, and civic leaders to make participation simple, accessible, and informed. The work focuses on education, preparedness, and confidence, not persuasion.
For Leadership Austin leaders and supporters, March Matters represents a tangible way to invest in the civic infrastructure that supports strong leadership, healthy communities, and a more representative future for Central Texas.
