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 month, know that we hear you, and we’re here to help however we can.

Over the past week we’ve been advocating for the Equal Rights Amendment, to get President Biden’s federal judges confirmed, clemency for death row inmates in federal prisons, 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: Healthcare for All, Protecting the LGBTQ+ Community and More. Join Special Guests Chuck Pennacchio of One Payer States and Brandon Wolf of the Human Rights Campaign as we discuss the plan to make health care for all a reality, and stand with the LGBTQ+ community against the ravages of MAGA at the federal, state, and local levels. You’ll leave with a renewed sense of purpose and solidarity.  We hope to  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.

In solidarity,

Mike Fox for the PDA National Team
