Bob Muehlenkamp, Chair of Our Revolution Maryland, wrote in
Jacobin
( [link removed] )
about how Our Revolution's sustained and strategic organizing
model is critical to carrying on the legacy of the Sanders'
campaign. "Progressive activists want to be part of a movement
that is grassroots and bottom up, deeply democratic, that fights
on both national and local issues, has an inside/outside strategy
of electing progressives to office and at the same time
challenges and changes the Democratic Party. This is exactly what
Our Revolution is doing right now."

Our Revolution Oregon helped elect Mike Schmidt to serve as
district attorney in Multnomah County, which includes Portland!
At the Our Revolution Oregon Organizing Meeting
( [link removed] )
in May, Mike laid out his vision for criminal justice reform in
Oregon, including ending the death penalty, mandatory sentencing,
and cash bail. "If we look at the data and research, it's evident
that we can do all these things and it will make us more safe."
Now more than ever, it's important that we work to elect
progressive District Attorneys up and down the ballot!

Our Revolution California's Organizing Meeting
( [link removed] )
in May featured Congressman Ro Khanna, an endorsed candidate
for re-election and Bernie 2020 co-chair. "We need your voices
now more than ever to keep holding us accountable in Congress, to
push us to get more progressive policy. Be proud of how far
you've come. Bernie Sanders is the most progressive person who
has run in modern history, and he almost became the nominee. I am
100% convinced that a progressive future is ours. "

Our Revolution Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania's May
Organizing Meeting
( [link removed] )
featured State Rep. Summer Lee, an endorsed candidate running
for re-election. Summer spoke about fighting to win a local
moratorium on evictions and foreclosures - and how outside
organizing was critical. "We know our legislation doesn't move
because Republicans have vowed never to bring up Democratic
bills. But when we organize on the outside - when housing justice
folks fight and speak up - we can win big on these issues."

New York City Councilmember & Queens Borough presidential
candidate Costa Constantinides was endorsed at our New York
Organizing Meeting
( [link removed] )
in part because of his bold plan to use clean energy as a way
to bring good green jobs to Queens.

"By acting on climate, by shutting down dirty power plants,
by putting renewable energy in every public building in Queens,
we will have cleaner air to breathe and we can create jobs,"
Costa said.

New York's May meeting also featured nationally endorsed
candidate Samelys Lopez, who is running to represent the South
Bronx in Congress. "You have to center the voices of the directly
impacted," Lopez said. "We need working-class champions who are
going to put people first and are going to respect the movement
that we built with our blood, sweat and tears. "

Party into a true progressive party.

Thanks to Our Revolution / New York Progressive Action
Network's nimble grassroots organizing and legal action, Bernie
is back on the ballot in New York! NYPAN's George Albro updated
our members on the win at the May New York Organizing Meeting
( [link removed] )
-- "Any day that we win back the right to vote is a good day.
Bernie wanted his delegates to get elected to fight for a
progressive platform but the governor of the 1% had a different
plan. He liked it better if he picked all the delegates from New
York. This was just an excuse, a power grab, a way to rob people
of their right to vote."

Our Revolution partnered with our allies to announce the
formation of the 2020 Bernie Delegates Network, which will serve
as a hub for more than 1,000 Bernie Sanders delegates to the
Democratic National Convention. We're organizing to make sure the
Democratic ticket and the party's top leaders are willing to
fully recognize and respond to the broadly popular policy views
of party activists. It's up to us to hold the Democratic Party
accountable - if you are a DNC delegate, let us know!

Our Revolution Maine and other chapters are organizing to
ensure that all Bernie state delegate spots are filled at their
state Democratic Conventions. "This was a huge undertaking to
complete in a really short period of time," Maine leader Leah
Knightly said. "But we were able to text and email and phone bank
our way to filling over 200 Bernie state delegate vacancies, and
we filled them with tried and true Bernie supporters."

Blacklist. "We definitely pushed him left on some issues. He was

establishment ignored them."
