Indivisibles: “bird-dogging”

That may seem like a funny phrase, but it’s an important one -- in
general, it means to watch something closely, or to seek it out.

In the political world, it refers to the practice of activists seeking out
candidates to get answers to important questions. It’s a vital part of
holding candidates accountable and making sure they can’t dodge their
constituents when we’re facing real issues. Earlier this year,
Indivisibles bird-dogged Elizabeth Warren, pressuring her to commit to
naming a public school teacher as Secretary of Education -- and she later
announced plans to do exactly that.

We know it’s effective, and we know our people do it well, which is why
we’re launching a massive new bird-dogging program to hold candidates
accountable. But we need your help to get it off the ground. [ [link removed] ]Will you
give $5 today to make an early investment in this new initiative and all
of Indivisible Action’s work?

To make it happen, we’ll provide the supplies, training, and support that
our bird-dogging Indivisibles need to be successful. With your help, we’re
aiming to train thousands of Indivisibles across a dozen key states to
bird-dog candidates and get answers to important questions. With this
tactic, we’ll be able to get candidates on the record on issues like
impeachment, healthcare, immigration, gun violence, and everything else
facing our communities. (Watch out in the coming weeks for invitations to
a training near you.)

But all these tools and trainings cost money -- from the supplies to help
Indivisibles stand out, to the text message and email tools we use to
communicate, to the hundreds of hours of policy research it takes to keep
Indivisibles in the know about the latest issues. To make all that happen,
we’ve set an initial launch goal of raising $20,000.

Together, we know we can get there. [ [link removed] ]Will you chip in $5 right now to
empower Indivisibles to get real answers from candidates and support all
of Indivisible Action’s work?
