Actions! 3.18.2024-3.24.2024

There are days when the courts defend the rule of law.

Days when it seems that they punt. More interested in running for cover than in standing up for our rule of law.

We must remember. No one is coming to save us. We must save ourselves. And we do that through our actions today and tomorrow. Because the tree of liberty truly is watered with the blood (and tears) of patriots, every generation.

Link arms and work together. Together we are INDIVISIBLE.

7 months to November and counting.

Persuasion to Power:
Know your Audience w/ Loretta Ross
Wednesday, March 20, 2024
5 - 6:30 PM Pacific

Second in a series. (rescheduled from 2/21/24)

Everyone we speak to, whether neighbor, friend, community member or family, carries a slightly different set of values and expectations.

In organizing conversations, it’s up to us to listen well and make strategic, thoughtful assessments of how to move our goals forward by taking into account the other person’s responses.

Join us and veteran activist Loretta Ross (featured in The Persuaders!) for a conversation on how to assess and adjust our communication approaches based on the person we’re talking to and how closely they already align with our goals.

Register here. (Note time: 5 pm PT/8 pm ET)


March 21
Active America Action Call
with Will Rollins
Tuesday, March 12, 2024
5 - 6 PM Pacific

RSVP

Every so often, a candidate comes along with that “wow” factor. Will Rollins is one of those leaders.

When he first ran for the House of Representatives in 2022, he had a lot of skeptics. He was up against an entrenched incumbent who has been in the House for decades, but Will quickly proved to be an inspiring advocate for change who came within striking distance of victory.

A former federal prosecutor who focused on counterterrorism and counterintelligence cases in Southern California, Rollins isn’t afraid to call out threats to our democracy when he sees them.

His race is in the highest priority Red-to-Blue tier of the DCCC, so national Democrats have their eye on Rollins too.

It’s taking place on Zoom so that our supporters all over the country can hear from Will.

Activate America volunteers have made over 300,000 voter contacts on Rollins’ behalf, and we’re all in to see him succeed this year. 

So please, join us on Thursday, March 21st, and bring a friend! We know you will be inspired.

CALLS TO MAKE

Democrats must, as AOC says, either be seen to be winning, or caught trying.

That’s what our calls are for - to encourage them to try and, hopefully, to win.

To keep fighting for our freedoms. To make that fight consistent with our actions, both at home and abroad. 

Let’s make some calls!
Calls to Make: 3.18.2024-3.24.2024
