VAYD Day of Action: Calls to Colorado for Hickenlooper [[link removed]]
In keeping with flipping the Senate, Colorado needs your help! Making phone calls from home is one of the best ways to help elect Democrats up and down the ballot while staying socially distant.

We especially welcome first-time volunteers, who would like to join a historic grassroots movement across our country. All you need is internet access and a laptop or desktop computer.

Before your shift starts on Sunday, September 13th at 2pm , your local organizer will reach out to give you all the training you need to start phone banking. We will get you set up, walk through how our phone banks work, give you a script to help guide your conversations, and answer any questions you might have.
RSVP now, and invite a friend to join you!

REMINDER: all campaign activity in official VAYD Days of Action count for twice as many points. Join us!
