do MORE than vote!
IF NOT YOU WHO?
IF NOT NOW WHEN?
Our democracy is in crisis. What will be your democratic legacy? Trump and Republicans are predators on our democracy. There are many issues that need action but PRIORITY #1 to make meaningful changes - we MUST help Democrats keep the U.S. House expand their slim majority in the U.S. Senate.
DEMOCRACY IS NOT A SPECTATOR SPORT
MAKE A PLAN TODAY.
START DOING.
We have reached a point that inaction is passively enabling the destruction of our democracy. There are literally 50+ ways to get involved and help your democracy.
INVEST AND SACRIFICE some of your valuable time and abilities. Make time. #1 Join/helps a group - that's how democracy works. This is the most effective way to multiply your vote and amplify the messages of candidates/organizations you believe in. There is strength AND POWER in joining a group - you support them, they support you.
Join a group. Sign up and join ONE of the pro-democracy groups below, use their search function for their groups in your community:
1-Swingleft swingleft.org
2-Sister District sisterdistrict.com
3-Indivisible indivisible.org
4-Movement Labs movementlabs.com (you can get out the vote and support progressive causes from your home, See below)
5-A campaign of a local or National Democrat running for office
*Help campaigns from your own home: If you cannot join a group. Texting, "phone-banking" and writing postcards are productive ways - to inspire voters in OTHER states to vote! Often organized by groups like Indivisible.org or local campaigns. These are easy, do not require hours of dedicated effort. FYI text/phone banking do not show your personal phone number OR require revealing your full identify).
You DO NOT need political experience or lots of time to join and help a group - Rep. John Lewis gratefully describes the critical role of the women and men who made sandwiches and provided transportation for Civil Rights activists in the 1960's.
