Friend,

This weekend, an investigation revealed an Elon Musk-funded PAC is targeting Muslim and Jewish voters with opposing and divisive political ads about Kamala Harris.¹

This is exactly what we talk about in our dismantling antisemitism training: how some politicians try to use the machinery of fear and division to undermine our efforts to join together across difference and win the future we all deserve.

In largely Jewish areas of Pennsylvania, the ads call Harris antisemitic. In largely Muslim areas of Michigan, the ads imply Harris is beholden to support Israel because of her Jewish husband. This isn't a new tactic, but it is incredibly dangerous for our democracy and our safety.²

That's why we’re calling undecided Jewish voters in battleground states like Pennsylvania — to fight the disinformation and division. We have four shifts left to call undecided Jewish voters before the election — see details below and sign up here.

Call Undecided Jewish Voters for Kamala Harris
Final shifts:
Tue, Oct 22, 5:30pm ET
Mon, Oct 28, 5:30pm ET
Tue, Oct 29, 5:30pm ET
Sun, Nov 3, 4:00 ET

"I've done a lot of phone banking, and calling
other Jews is by far the best experience."
— Julie, volunteer

In our first two phonebanks, 100 volunteers made 36,000 calls and had over 1,000 conversations.

Join me and hundreds of other volunteers to reach Jewish voters before Election Day. Sign up for a final shift to call undecided Jewish voters.

Thank you for everything you do,

Graie Hagans
Chief Vision Officer, Bend the Arc
