Shout out to all of you!

It is our duty to advocate for our rights and freedoms

Shout out to everyone who came out for our monthly People Power United meeting: Progressive Mobilization Call, where we discussed current topics and ways to advocate in our communities. No worries if you missed it, here are the highlights:

We can make excuses or we can make a change. People Power United members are all about making change!

The freedom to vote is a fundamental right. We value our freedom to vote to elect leaders who respect our will, protect our interests, and govern in our name. Sadly, that right is under attack.

We cannot wait until the next election cycle, we need to act now to protect our vote and our voice in our democracy. We can and must come together and champion laws that:

• Protect our votes

• Protect election officials, workers, and volunteers in the workplace

• Ward off voter suppression efforts, and

• Expand funding for local, state, and federal elections

We must get loud on voting rights! Make those calls to your lawmakers requesting these protections, write letters, and sign petitions, we need to protect our vote and our voice in our democracy. Here are some actions we can take:

1. Click here to advocate for our freedoms and our democracy by sending a letter to lawmakers

I believe in the power of the people. I have seen the love and determination of folks stepping up to write letters and postcards to voters, signing petitions and letter campaigns, making calls, sending texts, hitting doors, and dropping literature. There is no power like that of the people, and People Power United stands ready to protect our communities against any and all injustices. -Laurie

Pssst. Did you know? The true strength of America is in her people. You are the power!

• We must re-commit to doing the work to elect leaders who will respect our will, protect our interests, and govern in our name. And we must hold them accountable.

• We must push for leaders on the local, state, and federal levels to stand strong and protect our rights and our freedoms. And we must hold them accountable.

• Lastly, we must invest in our communities. Investments today in our children, seniors, workers, housing, healthcare, environment, and other areas, will strengthen our nation.

With love in our hearts and hard work, we can and will reclaim our nation from the cruelty, chaos, and confusion. Click here to join us.
