Everywhere Jill
goes - from meeting with Amazon workers in Staten Island, to
joining anti-war actions at the Bath Iron Works shipyard in Maine, to
speaking in front of a roaring crowd of 400,000 at the March on
Washington for Gaza - her pro-worker, anti-war, climate action
campaign has gotten an enthusiastic reception. All these
events have been amazing, but for Jill’s campaign to really take off,
we need to replicate that energy across the country.
Planning a campaign swing through
13 or 14 states is a huge and expensive undertaking, requiring staff
to work overtime on logistics and organizing as well as money for
travel, lodging, food, venues, as well as other expenses - like
security. Jill is known for speaking truth to power, and unfortunately
we’re already receiving threats that we have to take
seriously.
Making this trip happen
will be a huge step forward in building a nationwide campaign that’s
in the news and on the ballot in every state to take on the
parties of war and Wall Street and offer a real choice to tens of
millions voters who want an end to endless war and genocide, an
economy that works for working people, and a livable future for our
children.
Can you pitch in whatever you can now to help
us raise $16,000 so we can send Jill on the campaign
trail?
