We have been meeting, now it's time to mobilize! The 2024 elections are heating up fast and if we work together, we can accomplish a lot! We need to make sure our community has the information needed to vote in the August and November elections, and we need to mobilize them! Please let us know if you are able to assist in this effort with direct action as we plan for ways for everyone to get involved through a collaborative effort canvassing our neighborhoods! Can you attend a virtual training on Monday, August 5th, at 7pm to learn how you can start talking to voters about the upcoming August 20th election?
