Dear LULAC Leadership,

This holiday season we have a major mission in Georgia. Senate runoff elections in Georgia are catching national attention and already we are seeing voter suppression. A lawsuit in Georgia claims that nearly 200,000 registered voters were improperly purged. The Georgia A.C.L.U. said in a statement that those removed from the rolls were likely to be “young voters, voters of lower income, and citizens of racial groups that have been denied their sacred right to vote in the past.” These techniques are nothing new for us as civil rights activists.

Georgia Senate Runoff?

The past three weeks we have been strategizing a logistical plan to help our community. But, we want to give you the power to organize with Georgia this holiday season. LULAC is working with state-based organizations to GOTV and ensure we have a record turnout. We are working together to set up phone banks and text banks to reach every eligible and registered Latino in Georgia.

But we need YOU, the life of this organization.

We know our membership has what it takes to reach out to Georgia and make the difference. Like in other elections, we need you to help us call Latino voters in Georgia.

Phone banks are every Tuesday starting today, text banking is every Wednesday through election day Jan 5, 2021. Would you take a moment to sign up for one? Would you go to the next level and host a phone bank with your council? Let us link arms with Latinos across the country to build a grassroots movement that is all about harnessing our individual and collective power.

RSVP for phone banking here (multiple dates available)

RSVP here for our text banking happy hour on Wednesday 12/16

You might say, why should I care about Georgia? Unite in this grassroots movement because LULAC is about you, and those you love the most. LULAC is about all the Latinos that you know in your network who are creating change every day. I have no doubt that we will continue to GOTV in Georgia and with your help, we will amplify this movement across all 50 states, Puerto Rico, and Washington D.C.

You are receiving this email because you have already committed to civil rights, take this step with me now and sign up to be part of #ArribaGeorgia GOTV.

Together We Rise,

Sindy
