We’re trying to raise $10,000 before the end of our fiscal year tomorrow to support Bend the Arc’s local and national work. Chip in today to help us reach our goal. <[link removed]>
Dear Friend,
As we build toward a world where freedom and safety are reimagined and realized, we know that local action generates national momentum.
That’s why we’re mounting local campaigns that reflect our national priorities — when we grow deep, local partnerships of Jews and allies, we can move our electeds to make bolder choices that change the world around us.
At Bend the Arc, our local work builds power for national change. Will you give a gift of $18 right now to help us build toward 2024? <[link removed]>

It’s almost the end of our fiscal year, and we’re trying to raise $10,000 by June 30th (tomorrow!) to fund our local and national work. When you donate, you’ll be supporting local leaders working on statewide and national campaigns (highlighted below) that will bring us closer to a future with safety for all of us.
Will you help us get there by giving a gift today? <[link removed]>
With gratitude,
The Bend the Arc team
Our chapters are fighting for a future rooted in liberation, love, and solidarity!
- Our California chapters are putting their collective strength behind a statewide, BREATHE Act-aligned campaign to restore voting rights to people in California state prisons and put polling sites in county jails.
- In Pittsburgh, we’ve made our first-ever endorsement in a local election, helping Sara Innamorato win the primary race for Allegheny County Executive. This was a critically important race with significant implications for improving conditions in the Allegheny County jail, which the chapter is also working on in partnership with the Alliance for Police Accountability.
- Our Champaign-Urbana chapter is working on campaigns to end wealth-based pretrial incarceration, support reproductive justice, and move resources toward care and crisis response for migrants coming into Illinois. They’ve connected these campaigns with the common thread of advancing safety for all in Champaign-Urbana and beyond.
- Leaders in our Cincinnati chapter joined a large coalition fighting for abortion rights protection in Ohio. They are building relationships with BIPOC-led organizations and amplifying how reproductive justice impacts Black and brown communities.
- In San Luis Obispo, leaders spearheaded a campaign to stop the building of a new $52 million police building. They wrote op-eds and letters to the editor focused on investing in the community instead. Those plans are halted for now!
- Maryland leaders are working on the Defund Hate campaign to disinvest from Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection federally, with a focus on organizing local synagogues. They are also continuing to work with voting rights organizations to increase voter engagement.
- Our New Mexico chapter has successfully organized and trained local synagogues to adopt community safety teams that keep services safe without guns, guards, or gates. This work built off the chapter’s commitment to deep political education, and they’ve met with other Bend the Arc chapters to do similar work in other parts of the country.
