Today’s Action: Get out the vote for Democratic congressional candidate Summer Lee!
Summer Lee, a Pennsylvania state legislator, community organizer, and activist backed by the local chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America is fighting to bring her bona fide progressive values to the US House of Representatives, and she needs our help! The first Black woman to represent Southwestern Pennsylvania in the state legislature, Lee would bring a badly needed, fresh perspective to Washington, DC, on a whole host of issues, including voting rights, reproductive rights, economic and environmental justice, LGBTQ rights, immigration, and more.
The margin of error for keeping the House Democrat hands is far too thin for comfort, but there are plenty of ways we can take action to ensure we keep power and continue advancing our critical progressive agenda. Phone-banking is one of the most effective ways you can pitch in from afar. You don’t have to be a seasoned professional, just ready to do good work.
Summer Lee for Congress is hosting virtual phone-banking sessions every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday until Election Day on November 8th. Sign up now and help spread the good word on Lee’s candidacy! The voters you reach could mean the difference between Democrats maintaining control of the House or a Speaker Kevin McCarthy doing Trump’s destructive bidding and driving President Biden’s ambitious agenda to grinding halt.
The fight for a truly progressive future does not end with Summer Lee’s candidacy! There are committed Democratic candidates all across the country that need your help getting out the vote next month. You can filter through virtual phone- and text-banking events through Mobilize. So many critical issues are on the line this election — reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ rights, gun-safety initiatives, justice reform — everything we’ve fought so hard for! It’s never been more important to get out the vote and fight for our rights. Join the fight and do your part today!
