★ ★ ★ HEADLINES: Derailing the Dirty Deal | Climate Strike | BLUEPRINT for November | Swing State Operation | New! Fetterman Sticker | Early Vote for Ellison | Holding Trump Accountable for his Crimes | & MORE! ★ ★ ★ EXCLUSIVE FETTERMAN STICKER! In appreciation of his progressive policies and hilariously devastating burns of his TV doctor opponent, we created an iconic new sticker to celebrate John Fetterman! We love Fetterman because he’s a proud progressive unafraid of calling BS on Republicans who claim to want to “Make America Great Again” while pushing anti-worker policies to enrich their corporate donors. Our Revolution is all-in to elect him in Pennsylvania to defend our majority against a red wave and cancel out Joe Manchin’s vote in the Senate. Chip in $5 or more now as a recurring donor, and we’ll send you this exclusive John Fetterman sticker! You’ll also be powering our critical GOTV in swing states to defeat the far right. GET YOUR FETTERMAN STICKER ★ ★ ★ The Senate is scheduled to vote on a must-pass bill that attached Manchin’s Dirty Deal on Tuesday — but our pressure campaign is working! Our Revolution launched this fight early, mobilizing thousands of calls to members of Congress, and now more and more are coming out to oppose the deal. The next few days are critical. We need to be as loud as possible and that’s why we’re taking the fight to Capitol Hill on Tuesday! Our Revolution and our coalition will Rally Against the Dirty Deal on Capitol Hill, starting at 9 am Tuesday, Sept. 27th. Join us in person or tune in to our LIVE broadcast! Bill McKibben and representatives of frontline communities in West Virginia and Virginia will speak against Joe Manchin's Dirty Deal and how we can STOP it! ATTEND THE RALLY ★ ★ ★ Bernie railed against the dirty deal on the Senate floor weeks ago, and US Rep. Ro Khanna joined our Town Hall last week, standing with Bernie as a firm no-vote on any continuing resolution with this deal attached. With a budget deadline looming, more than 80 US House Reps have signed onto a letter led by Rep. Raul Grijalva — and now, Sen. Jeff Merkley is leading a similar letter. So far, Sens. Tammy Duckworth, Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren, Chris Van Hollen, Benjamin Cardin, and of course Bernie, signed to oppose attaching the Dirty Deal to the must-pass bill. Manchin made the cringe claim that he’s a victim of “revenge politics,” Bernie responded: “Defeating the Big Oil side deal is not about revenge,” Common Dreams reported. Tell your Senator to vote NO on Tuesday and do everything they can to STOP this dirty deal. ★ ★ ★ Manchin’s dirty deal is a wishlist written by fossil fuel lobbyists that would sacrifice frontline communities and expedite fossil fuel projects — and effectively cancel out the climate steps Democrats are celebrating in the Inflation Reduction Act! “The IRA was the compromise, and we need more people to say what Bernie Sanders and I are saying, which is we’re going to vote no if push comes to shove on this,” Common Dreams quoted Ro Khanna from our town hall. Tell your Rep to publicly state they’ll only vote for a continuing resolution without the poison pill of Manchin’s dirty deal attached. ★ ★ ★ We can’t let Manchin hold us hostage. As Greenpeace USA’s Tefere Gebre reminded us in our Town Hall: “Remember, Joe Manchin promised to vote for Build Back Better and he walked away from that deal. We don’t owe Manchin anything.” Let’s keep escalating the pressure on our representatives to stand with climate and stand with frontline communities — and reject this Dirty Deal! CALL YOUR HOUSE REP ★ ★ ★ CLIMATE ACTION STRIKE On Friday, Our Revolution NJ took part in a Global Climate Strike, rallying on Rutgers Campus and marching to US Rep. Frank Pallone’s office to call on him to oppose Manchin’s dirty deal. Our Revolution Organizing Coordinator Anna-Marty Visky caught up with Pallone on the street — and he committed to opposing the Dirty Deal! Our Revolution NJ is part of the Empower NJ climate coalition that met on the issue with the staff of Sen. Cory Booker — who has since signed onto Merkley’s letter opposing the deal. We’re also ramping up pressure on Sen. Bob Menendez and US Rep. Andy Kim in NJ. ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Early voting has started in Minnesota and we need to re-elect Keith Ellison as Attorney General! A Board Member of Our Revolution, he has worked for decades to advance democratic and criminal-justice reform and to fight corporate monopolies. During the pandemic, Keith worked to combat price gouging and profiteering, including on prescription drugs. He also led the team that convicted former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd. Doing the People’s work earns you powerful enemies, and Keith is expecting a tough race this year. Like most progressives, he’s the target of the billionaire and rightwing smear machine. Keith is running a grassroots campaign and Our Revolution is a grassroots organization, so we rely on volunteer supporters. Can you step up to help re-elect Keith Ellison? VOLUNTEER FOR KEITH ★ ★ ★ Election Day is just six weeks out, and what we do now will determine our fate. Our Revolution is going all-in to mobilize millions of voters to prevent a MAGA Majority and the threat of a national abortion ban and other radical right-wing policies. Our movement must marshal our resources now to execute our BLUEPRINT strategy for the General Election, and we’ve launched our Swing State Fund to power our GOTV machine and mobilize millions of voters in November. With a goal of $300,000 for our Swing State Fund, we can reach half a million voters and FLIP TWO SENATE SEATS in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Reaching these funding goals — or not — will determine if we get John Fetterman or Dr. Oz and if Mandela Barnes replaces Ron Johnson in WI — if we cancel out Manchin and Sinema or if we face a new MAGA majority. The stakes couldn’t be higher, and there’s a real danger that many progressive, working-class voters will not be motivated to turn out. DONATE TO OUR SWING STATE FUND ★ ★ ★ During the next 6 weeks before Election Day, Our Revolution volunteers will use our proven electoral turnout model to mobilize our list of 413,251 voters to cast their ballots in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Our research shows that if we connect with each voter 4 times — by phone, text, mail, social media, and door-knocking — we can boost turnout by 11 percent and make a decisive difference in tight races. Hitting our budget goal will enable us to make a total of 1,653,004 voter contacts(4 contacts X 413,251 progressive voters) to replace radical Ron Johnson with Mandela Barnes and make sure John Fetterman fends off Trump fanatic, Dr. Oz. POWER OUR GOTV MACHINE ★ ★ ★ PHONE BANK FOR FETTERMAN Our Revolution is putting our massive GOTV machine to work to make sure John Fetterman wins BIG in Pennsylvania! We need John in the Senate and we need YOU to make calls with our Phonebank Force! We have a chance to elect a progressive and defeat that elitist hack Dr. Oz — does it get any better than that? CALL FOR FETTERMAN ★ ★ ★ So far this election season, Our Revolution Phonebank Force has made over 800,000 calls — and counting! We want to hit at least 1 MILLION dials through November. Our midterm fight is in full effect — and we need our folks to step up across the country to help us defeat the far right, flip senate seats, and elect more allies into power. SIGN UP FOR A CALL SHIFT ★ ★ ★ This election is an opportunity to sink or swim — we either descend into a right-wing extremist nightmare or fight like hell to change the political landscape so we can build on our work and progress. Together, we can execute our plan to defeat the far right and flip Republican Senate seats to progressive in critical swing states. If we succeed, we can cancel out Manchin and Sinema and deliver for working people. If we lose, we’ll have more rightwing radicals to contend with in the House and Senate. The time is NOW to marshal our resources as a movement. Can we count on you to become a recurring donor to fund our work through November? ★ ★ ★ Our Revolution members are packing Congress with new progressive allies like Greg Casar (TX-35), Summer Lee (PA-12), Becca Balint (VT), and others. We could add a total of 10 progressives to the US House, but only if we get them across the finish line in November! Chip in a donation to help mobilize millions of voters and build progressive power in this election — we have to act NOW.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Our Revolution and Public Citizen are mobilizing now to ensure Trump is held accountable for his crimes because no one is above the law. We are inviting everyone to join a live Movement Call with Public Citizen on Thursday (Sept. 29th) to organize rallies and press events to launch when the January 6th report is released in a couple of weeks. We’re planning actions in WI, PA, AZ, OH, TX, and other states around the country to raise the public demand for justice for the attempted hijacking of our democracy. RSVP HERE
