Much Done, and Much More to Do:
Here’s How We Can All Help Bring Home Wins

Yet another busy week in PDALand.

On the same day we helped bring in huge progressive wins in elections in Wisconsin, Chicago, St. Louis, and Denver, a certain former president did an historic perp walk, with more to come.

We’ll let the courts do their jobs, and keep our attention laser-focused on those campaigns where our collective activism can make a real difference.

Whether it’s combating gun violence, securing social, economic, racial and environmental justice for all, or working on peace at home and abroad, we’re working hard to make the world a more progressive place for all.

Please consider picking one or more of these actions/projects, and let’s make some noise together. We need you with us today!

1) Progressive Virtual Town Hall Sunday: Celebrating Daniel Ellsberg, Plus Tuesday’s Victories Debrief. Featured Guest: College Professor Christopher Appy discussing his new book on Ellsberg’s work. We’ll also debrief the big victories on Tuesday, and lay out the plan for bringing home more wins. You’ll leave energized and organized. RSVP here.

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) Become a local Congressional Office Liaison. Work with others in your area to promote progressive legislation. Sign up here and we’ll get you all the training you need to be successful.
