Show Up
From the Women’s March to the Climate Strike to No War protests to picket lines, taking the time to show up in person makes our movement visible and powerful.
Visit
When you contact your Members of Congress and other elected officials, an in person office visit has the most impact.
Write
Postcards to voters increase turnout, get people registered, help them vote more regularly and remind people to vote for candidates that share their values. They also create communities of writers that #DoTheWork together. Write some postcards in the volunteer center, at one of our coffeeshop meet ups, or host a postcard party with your friends!
Letters to the editor are a great way to get your elected officials attention. We are always looking for letter writers, if you’d like to help draft them, please contact us.
Text
Textbanking is a fast and easy way to reach hundreds of voters in minutes, and you can do it anywhere, anytime.
Call
Phonebanking creates personal connections that make a difference. The only thing more effective is in person contact. Speaking of which…
Knock
Canvassing is the best way to reach people and turn out their vote. Whether it’s local or out of state, canvassing is where it’s at. If you’ve never tried it, come with us – we’ll make it fun and you’ll get a walk in, too!
Vote
Voter registration is critical to increasing turnout. We create and join voter registration events regularly.
Win
We can do this!
