Dear John,

We have a plan for 2024 – and YOU are part of it. Here are 3 ways to give and act collectively right now so we can make our values real in the world:

💸 Become a sustaining member during our Spring Member Drive, which kicked off this week. (Make sure to click “make me a monthly sustainer”!)

🎉 Join us at our Annual Fundraiser on June 13. Register now or contribute.

📢 Act with us to re-elect Ilhan Omar at our upcoming door knocks and phone banks.

You’ll hear more about our plan for the year ahead and beyond over the next few weeks, but here are a few things to know. In 2022, members, staff, and our board met and re-committed our organization to base building, recognizing that relationships are the source of our power. Together, we are building:

strong teams of leaders launching campaigns statewide, including Minnesota United Parents (MNUP), Duluth Tenants Union, Twin Cities United Performers (TCUP), and high school student organizers;
a bloc of 30,000 progressive voters ready to cast our ballots together in primary and general elections; and
a community of members like you who act and give collectively towards our north star: delivering on the unfulfilled promise of American democracy, where our government is shaped by us and our economy works for all of us.

There’s a Mariame Kaba quote we repeat often here at TakeAction, and it’s been on my mind even more as the 2024 election approaches: “hope is a discipline.” For me, the hope and discipline it takes to organize comes from my community. I want you to be a part of it! Now, more than ever, we all need community.

Become a sustaining member, join us at our annual fundraiser, and act with us to re-elect Ilhan Omar.

In solidarity,

Laura Kiernan
Fundraising Specialist (she/her)

We are building power. Our power comes from YOU.
