Friend,
We’ve been closely watching the election results over the last week and are starting to get a clearer picture for what the coming weeks and months will look like for the many critical issues facing our country.
Here’s what we know for sure …
In the short term, we’ll:
* Continue to build on the early success and excellent coverage of our #StopToxicTwitter campaign by keeping the pressure on advertisers and readying for any post-election chaos;
* Fight Trump’s return to social media as he readies for a 2024 bid;
* Continue pushing to get Gigi Sohn confirmed to the FCC so the agency can get to work on urgent priorities even with the potential of a divided Congress;
* Push for the passage of the American Data Privacy and Protection Act, which would safeguard our personal data; and
* Fight bad bills like the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act, which would prop up the corporate media that continue to harm our communities.
In the long term, we’re aiming to:
* Get ready for 2024 now. We need to continue to expose how the news industry fuels threats to our democracy;
* Build new systems. We need to put forward new plans and strategies that will create the transformative changes and media structures that will support a just multiracial democracy; and
* Sharpen the vision and build the political power we need to construct a news system that is responsive to communities, rather than shareholders.
After last week's vote there are new political openings and opportunities. We have a lot of work ahead of us — but in the days ahead, we will organize for the media we deserve, the stories that must be told and the world we know we can build — because we know it’s possible.
And with your help, we intend to make that world a reality.
With gratitude,
Jessica J. González & Craig Aaron
