63 DAYS UNTIL ELECTION DAY
Happy Tuesday, Activists!
We hope you had a great Labor Day weekend! You probably know that today is the historic start of the sprint to the election. And as you know, we've been working to get Josh Shapiro and John Fetterman elected for over a year.
If you've been waiting for the right time to join the effort, we're here for you! Now's the time to get involved to help the Democrats win. Think about this way - how do you want to feel on November 9? We know we want to feel thrilled that John Fetterman and Josh Shapiro were elected!!
And we know how to get it done. Sign up below to contact voters with us!
MESSAGING MATTERS: KIDS ARE NOT COLLATERAL
As kids head back to school, here's this week's message. Tweet and post on Facebook!
We all want our kids to feel safe and secure. So who does it serve to distract from real threats to their futures, like underfunding schools as #DangerousDoug Mastriano wants? Instead of letting politicians use education as a wedge, prioritize students' real needs! #TruthBrigade
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
You may recall that we are offering help with writing letters to the editor. We are lucky to have an expert - Meg Berlin - who just got one about Doug Mastriano published in the Inquirer!! Check it out here. And she can help you too.
Just email her and get the details --> megberlin271@gmail.com. These letters have a real impact, and you can learn how to do it successfully with Meg.
