cares about.

Dear MoveOn member, 

I’m Valeria from the MoveOn Petition Platform Team, which helps MoveOn
members launch and support petitions across the country, and I wanted
to thank you for everything you did during GOTV! 

You canvassed, made calls, sent texts, and vote tripled at your polling
place—and none of that was taken for granted. So many races have been
decided by thin margins, and we know we all helped make that
difference. Because of you and your efforts, progressives and Democrats
were elected across the country, held the Senate majority, and defeated
election deniers for roles that run our elections. 

We know that in this midterm election, our fundamental rights were at
stake—and the need to protect them continues.

All across the country, newly elected officials are stepping into their
roles, and soon they will start making changes in our society—either
breaking or fulfilling the promises they made while campaigning in our
communities. They won’t know what you care about unless you tell them.

[ [link removed] ]Start a petition. Change starts at a local level, petitions are a
powerful tool for fighting for the well-being of our community, and they
are most effective when a community comes together around local issues
that directly impact their lives.

Think about an important issue in your community. Do your elected
officials know about it, or are they ignoring it? Would public pressure
lead them to take action? Do other members of your community also find
this issue frustrating?

If you answered yes to at least one of these questions, then it's time for
you to start a petition!

Our recent petitions have had a great impact at the local and state level.
In this election, for example, residents of Orange County, Florida, cast
their votes in favor of rent control measures. This would directly impact
the lives of many families who have been affected and worried about the
ridiculous rent increases in their area. This was possible due to the
efforts of local activists and organizers and through social pressure
which included multiple residents of Orange County starting petitions on
our platform.

We’ve seen what happens when we come together to make a change. [ [link removed] ]Will
you start a MoveOn petition on an issue you care about or an issue that is
impacting your community?

What does your community care the most about?

Would you like your local government to allocate its budget funds toward
helping small businesses instead of incentivizing large corporations to
move to your community?

Have you noticed that your local police department has issues of race and
policing in different regions of town?

Is your local government providing inclusive accommodations to all members
of your community?

Is everyone in your community being served equally?

These are some frequent issues across the country affecting communities at
a local level, and the truth is that if we don’t speak out around these
issues, nothing will change.

This is the perfect time for a change. Newly elected officials are taking
office, and we must show them what issues are most important to us.

We invite you to use our free petition tool to start a petition
and take the first step toward making a direct change your community
needs.

It takes just one person to point out an issue for everyone to see and
support it. [ [link removed] ]Start a petition today, and together we can create a world
where everyone’s voice is heard. MoveOn makes it free and easy to start a
petition about something you know about and care about, and if it gains
traction, we can share it with more and more MoveOn members and help it
grow.

Thanks for all you do.

–Valeria and the MoveOn Petition Platform Team




Want to support MoveOn's work? Voters just defied history and stopped a
MAGA wave of extremism at the polls. But there is more work to do to end
the filibuster, codify abortion rights into law, and defend our freedoms,
our families, and our futures. We can accomplish all this and more, but
only if we work together.
