The primary is over. So is the State of the Union. And I trust you are all energized
But there’s nothing to get us going like getting together with others who are as focused as we are on keeping our democracy and making our country live up to its aspirations.
This week, there are so many ways to get together with others and get that energy spiking.
Link arms and work together. Together we are INDIVISIBLE.
8 months to November and counting.

Persuasion to Power: Combatting
Disinfo Through Education
in Persuasion Conversations
Wednesday, March 13, 2024
5- 6:30 PM Pacific
RSVP/Zoom registration page here.
Note: RSVP page shows Eastern Time.
Do you find yourself often struggling with how to effectively push back on the spread of disinformation? We know that many people in our communities fundamentally support the benefits of government-supported affordable health care and clean energy--and might even join our cause if only they weren’t misled, or intentionally lied to, about these and other topics.
Join us to learn how to open persuadable hearts and minds that have been closed by the onslaught of false information, and even to heal divisions among friends.
You’ll learn pragmatic, evidence-based strategies for effective disinfo-busting conversations, both casual and intentional, and leave with the confidence to bring people along with us.

Please join us Wednesday, March 13 at 5 pm (8 pm ET) to get to know and support our Arizona and Pennsylvania partners who work year-round to engage voters and potential voters!

CALLS TO MAKE
Democrats must, as AOC says, either be seen to be winning, or caught trying.
That’s what our calls are for - to encourage them to try and, hopefully, to win.
To keep fighting for our freedoms. To make that fight consistent with our actions, both at home and abroad.
Let’s make some calls!
