PDA Weekly Review and Preview for 11-30-24. Join us!
Much Done, and Much More to Do:
Here’s How We Can Move Forward to Build the Resistance
First, we hope that you and yours are having a peaceful, joyous, healing Holiday Season, and we thank you so much if you were active with us over the past week.
If you still need time to process and heal from the events of the past three weeks, know that we hear you, and we’re here to help however we can.
Over the past week we’ve been curing ballots for the remaining competitive House seats and working to protect those community members who are especially potentially vulnerable as we ramp up to resist what Trump and MAGA have in store.
We will continue this work over the upcoming week, and if you’re up to it, please pick one or more of these actions/projects, and let’s make some good trouble, together!
1) Progressive Virtual Town Hall Sunday: Promoting a Positive Holiday Season by Giving Thanks, and Next Steps Toward Making the Democratic Party More Progressive. In these troubling times we’ll open the floor up to allow folks to share what they’re still thankful for — be it family love, friendship, good health news, or anything else positive — and also bring hope as we lay out the way that we can make the Democratic Party more progressive, together. You’ll leave with a renewed sense of purpose and solidarity. We hope you see you Sunday!
2) Join the National Phone Team. Sign up with this juggernaut and make a real difference an hour here, an hour there, on your schedule. Sign up here, let us know what day you can set an hour aside, and we’ll get you cookin’ calling fellow PDA folks. We’ll make sure you’re doing something easy but productive!
3) Join the Congressional Liaisons Team. Join us to get all you need to do effective outreach to your Congressperson.
