Dear John, Over the past few months, in a non-partisan effort to mobilize poor and low-wealth eligible voters around a moral public policy agenda, our team and volunteers have texted, canvassed neighborhoods, organized social media and radio programs, and visited churches and communities across the nation. We've been inspired by stories of people who are voting for their demands on public policy in this election and some who are voting for the very first time because of our efforts. Nationally, the Campaign has reached over 5 million poor and low-wealth voters. While our efforts are worth celebrating, our work is far from over. Research shows that just a 19% increase in turnout in this voter population can significantly impact the election and could be the key to affordable health care, protected reproductive rights, and a living wage. We must turn this around. The stakes are high and we've got more work to do. We are committed to intensifying our non-partisan voter mobilization efforts over the next 3 days. Healthcare, living wages, reproductive rights & voting rights are all on the ballot, and our votes are directly connected to the changes we demand! Join Us for One Final Push!
In Arizona, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina, the number of voters the Poor People's Campaign has reached has outpaced the margin of victory in each state from the 2020 election. As a final push before Election Day, we invite you to join us in partnership with Repairers of the Breach in Goldsboro, North Carolina, for an urgent national sermon by Bishop William J. Barber II entitled, "It's Time for the Values of the Valley to Vote" This service will take place at Greenleaf Christian Church (DOC) in Goldsboro, NC this Sunday, November 6th at 10:00 AM ET. Livestream will be available at poorpeoplescampaign.org/livestream and on Poor People’s Campaign Facebook and Twitter.
Invite someone to join you tomorrow and be sure to visit vote.poorpeoplescampaign.org to help us GOTV before Election Day, November 8th! Let us know you’re tuning in by tagging us in a post that you’re watching and using #OurVotesAreDemands Forward Together, The Poor People’s Campaign
