A note from our founder, @joekennedy:
First, I want to say thank you. I know how many of you left it all on the field this election.
You door-knocked, phone-banked, traveled to swing states, organized your communities, and had difficult conversations with family and friends.
#5: Through the support of so many of you, our organization has helped them do this work for the past several years, laying solid “groundwork” for the fight demanded of us now.
#6: So we’ll be doubling down on our support for these organizers in the months ahead, elevating their voices and leadership in the looming battle to defend justice, equity and democracy on every front.
We hope you’ll join us.
Election Day is here- it's time to cast our ballots and protect our democracy.
See you at the polls!
This race could decide which party controls the U.S. House of Representatives. This is one of the most critical swing districts in the country.
Thanks to @DemocracyDocket for highlighting this case!
Despite anti-democratic efforts to purge voters and defy the Supreme Court's ruling on redistricting, Alabama activists are standing strong! @AlaValues, @Transform_AL , and Stand Up Mobile are leading the charge to make sure every eligible voter can cast their ballot.
