Hello John,

I’d like to express how deeply grateful we are to you for supporting our campaign, both online, and on the ground. We literally couldn’t do this without you.

You might have heard that seven different progressive organizations hand-delivered a joint-meeting request to Nancy Pelosi’s DC office, asking for Pelosi to address her dismissive comments about four younger progressive congresswomen of color. What you might not have heard is that their request for a meeting was turned down by her office in yet another blow to future generations of leaders, people of color, and progressives.

We disagree with Speaker Pelosi’s mischaracterization of The Squad which is why we need you to join us in the field this weekend. There will be hundreds of other forward-thinking Bay Area residents to celebrate our rainbow coalition of progressives and we need you to join us:

• Thursday, Democratic Pres. Debates with SF Young Dems & New Leaders Council: RSVP
• Saturday, 1st Annual Bay Area Korean Chuseok (Harvest) Festival Celebration: RSVP
• Sunday, multiracial crowd-canvassing at Calle 24’s Fiesta de las Américas: RSVP

We have just six months left until our now early California Primary on March 3rd of 2020. Which of these actions can you join in our fight to elect a progressive representative of color for San Francisco?

In addition to this week, you can stand with Shahid for Change at any of next week’s major events by RSVPing below:

• Monday, 9/16: March on City Hall to #CloseTheCamps & #FreeTheChildren: RSVP
• Friday, 9/20: #ClimateStrike led by Youth Vs. Apocalypse & the Sunrise Movement: RSVP
• Sunday, 9/22: Sunday Streets Western Addition w/ live music & good company: RSVP
