Hi Friend, We’re one month away from the midterm elections and want to remind you about the steps you can take to support two-party solutions and promote the voices who are fighting to limit the influence of the extremes in both major parties. 1. VOLUNTEER Whether it is in person or online, you can give your time in the homestretch to support those running for office who will add their voices to our cause. 2. CONTRIBUTE Give what you can to those candidates. Our allies typically don’t have built-in sources of campaign funding the way politicians who cater to the extremes do, so we can make a huge difference by stepping up with even a small donation. Your support can help impact the outcome of the most important contests. 3. SPEAK OUT The extremes on both sides dominate social media and other venues where far too much of the political conversation takes place in angry, divisive tones. Online, at work, in your community, even (especially, in some cases) with your families, make the case for specific candidates with a civil tone. We can’t leave the rhetorical field to those who have every incentive to maintain the status quo. Call out bad behavior! 4. VOTE Make sure you are registered and plan to cast your ballot – in person, by mail, early, or on Election Day. The clichés are all true: Every vote counts and we can’t leave democracy to those who would divide us. 5. INVEST If you can afford it, please consider making a contribution to No Labels today. We are working every day to ensure that America is headed in the direction it needs to go, in 2022 and beyond. Thank you for being in the trenches with us as we go, fight, and win.
