What should MomsRising tackle next? Tell us!
Friend - You are incredible. We thank you for persisting, especially when the going is tough.
We remain heartbroken about the outcome at the top of the ticket, as we also thank you for doing the Get Out The Vote work that helped get 43 candidates to victory, as well as helped get many ballot measures over the finish line. We didn’t win everything, but– and in no small part because of you – we didn’t lose everything. Thank you.
We’re not giving up. We’re not giving up on you. We’re not giving up on one another.
To start, here are the 5 Actions that we shared during the Post-Election MomsRising Community Zoom, which you can find on our Facebook page, and now are sharing with all of you – that still need your help (Scroll down for more details on each action):
We appreciate that so many of you are not giving up either. Here’s some evidence of us all not giving up: Over 3,368 people RSVPed for our Post-Election MomsRising Community ZOOM last week, a ton of people came on together, and over 44,383 have viewed it so far!
Thank you for continuing to rise together.
Speaking of rising, we got feedback that the Post-Election MomsRising Community Zoom was so good that we’re doing another MomsRising Community Zoom on Thursday, December 12th at 8:30pm ET/5:30pm PT – and you’re invited to that one as well. (Bring friends! We’ll also have special guests on that Community Zoom too!).
*You can RSVP for the December 12th MomsRising Community Zoom, which already has 600+ RSVPs, here: https://www.mobilize.us/momsrising/event/743839/
We really meant what we said about not giving up.
Now is the time to remember that elections are not permanent, and that, together, we are incredibly powerful. We’re in this for the long-haul, and our work for a brighter future is needed now more than ever.
Want more details on the 5 Actions? Here goes:
ACTION 1: Sign up for the MomsRising Action Network to Stop Disinfo Campaign.The sheer level of disinformation, misinformation, and flat out lies that was aimed at voters was historically high through this election. Disinformation hurts democracy – so we’re launching a campaign to educate the public about the disinformation crisis. Sign up to learn more and fight back.
ACTION 2: Are you ready to connect with others locally? Sign on here! You’re not alone. The MomsRising community is more than 1,044,000 strong. We’re developing programs, and as we move into 2025, we’ll help you make new connections and strengthen those you already have. Some ideas we have in mind: Sending out emails that provide connection opportunities for interested members, providing mom-focused resources, and expanding our state moms force and on-the-ground fellowship programs. Sign on to be the first to learn more!
ACTION 3: Community Brainstorm: Share your ideas for RISING! Part of the strategy of persistence is listening and learning. MomsRising is made up of over 1,044,000 members of diverse backgrounds, experiences, cultures, geographic locations, and ages. We have members who have been involved for decades and members who just joined us yesterday. We all experienced this election differently. We want your ideas on how we move forward, build on our momentum, and continue to grow and expand as a community and as a movement. Our work together is needed MORE THAN EVER. Please share your ideas for how we can RISE together!
ACTION 4: Sign up to apply to be a 2025 Beacon of Hope Volunteer Fellow. MomsRising runs a Beacons program, a ten-month volunteer fellowship program that builds leadership and advocacy skills. More importantly, it is a community of moms across the country who are connected to each other on an ongoing basis, and who meet regularly to learn from and support one another as we take action and build local power. You should apply! We'll review applications starting in December, with follow-up interviews. Acceptances will be decided by late January 2025.
ACTION 5: Put your dot on the map to show the power of our movement – and to show that none of us are alone. The programs we built together to get out the vote (with more than 82,938 GOTV volunteers!) created a bigger, stronger, more powerful, long-term movement. Thank you. We are in this together and we’re not giving up. Many people are feeling alone right now, so we invite you to help show the continued power of us together – and help people feel less alone. Reach out to family and friends. *Click here to put a dot on a map to show others in your community that you’re not giving up for our daughters, our sons, our aging parents, our future generations, and ourselves.
This is just the start of the actions we’ll be doing now in 2024 and into 2025 and beyond.
Stay tuned – we’re so thankful to be in this movement together.
Thank you for being the persistent, unstoppable force our nation needs more than ever right now.
