Alyssa Milano will speak at an Atlanta rally scheduled for the one-year anniversary of the massive Women's March, Georgia Alliance for Social Justice announced on Facebook Tuesday.
The Power to the Polls event intends to shift the movement's focus to strategizing about the midterm elections. The 2016 march was held a day after President Donald Trump's inauguration.
Milano has previously been active with politics in Atlanta. The actress canvassed on behalf of Democrat Congressional candidate Jon Ossoff early last year, offering to drive voters to the polls.
