John,
Earlier this month, we sent out a survey asking this WFP family a few questions on how you've engaged with the wave of uprisings across the country, if the COVID pandemic is directly impacting you, and your plan to get involved for the general election in November.
The response was overwhelming. More than 3,000 of you participated! Here are some of the big takeaways:
-
90% of you have taken a stand against racial injustice and police brutality in some way. Whether it was organizing a protest, attending a protest in person or online, donating to bail funds or frontline organizations, or contacting your elected officials — it's clear this movement is showing up and fighting back.
-
45% of you have lost a job or income, had a family member fall ill, or are worried about paying the bills during this pandemic — and you can't wait any longer for real relief from Congress.
-
Nearly all of you are ready to get involved in this election.
And that's exactly what we're going to do: Plug all of you into the movement we're building together.
We know it won't be easy. This pandemic continues to affect all of us in ways big and small, and corporate special interests are going to do everything in their power to uphold the status quo.
But if we continue joining in solidarity against the billionaire class, we are going to win. Can we count on you to support this work?
