Did you catch President Biden’s State of the Union speech?
The president’s message was clear: this election year, choice, freedom, and democracy are on the ballot!
Last night, President Biden said, “Not since President Lincoln and the Civil War have freedom and democracy been under assault here at home as they are today.”
He is right!
Right-wing MAGA extremists know rural voters are powerful. That’s why they are targeting voters in small towns and rural communities. As a result, Rural America has become the front line in defending our Democracy.
Well, we are fighting back.
RuralVote.org, our Super PAC, and its sister organization, RuralOrganizing.org, are joining forces to distribute tens of thousands of yard signs to rural voters in battleground communities across the country this spring.
This year, we launched a national Sign Squad to support “Vocal Locals” working to save our democracy. Already, 2,000 rural leaders in critical battleground states have signed up to join the cause.
The threat from MAGA Republicans exists in every community in the country. But the rural skew in the Electoral College and Senate means that MAGA Republicans in our small towns and rural communities have a MAJOR impact on our Democracy.
But we’ve been preparing for this fight for over a decade, and thousands of rural leaders nationwide are ready for the challenge.
Our research shows that rural battleground voters who support Democratic candidates and democratic values must know they're not alone, and yard signs are the best way to send the message.
