Friend, Bend the Arc is teaming up with Citizen Action Wisconsin to
help get progressive champion Mandela Barnes elected to the US
Senate.
This tight race is one way Democrats can elect a progressive Black
leader, flip a seat, and create a Manchin-and-Sinema-proof Senate
majority.1
Right now, the campaign is calling for all hands on deck after a
new poll shows Mandela leads by just 1
point.2 Mandela’s opponent, Sen. Ron
Johnson, is a MAGA Republican who vocally supported Trump's
decision to end Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), spread
misinformation about COVID-19 vaccinations, and plotted to overturn
the 2020 presidential election.
Let's make sure we elect leaders who represent our values
by phonebanking for Mandela Barnes:
☎️
Phonebank: Sunday, October 12 at 5:45pm ET / 2:45pm PT
☎️
Phonebank: Sunday, October 19 at 5:45pm ET / 2:45pm PT
You’ll find more dates on
the calendar here.
Election Day is just one month away, and we’ve made it easy
to help out! Every conversation with a voter increases our
chance to grow Democratic power in the Senate and win on critical
issues like healthcare, economic and racial justice, immigration, and
more.
See you on the phones!
The Bend the Arc team
PS: We’ll have a Jewish kavannah
(intention setting) at the beginning of each phonebank, plus
training for how to talk to voters.
