We the people must fight back. That is why the League of Women Voters is launching a powerful new initiative, Unite and Rise 8.5.
Through Unite and Rise 8.5, we will engage and mobilize 8.5 million voters to protect and preserve our democracy.
You can start to Unite and Rise by personally committing to the effort and signing on here.
The LWVUS is committed to issuing playbooks every quarter. For the second micro campaign, we are holding power accountable. We focus on...
1) defending and advancing voting rights, ensuring transparency and fairness in midcycle redistricting;
2) advocating for economic justice (budgets, reconciliation, Medicaid, SNAP, ICE funding and appropriations);
3) encouraging everyday democracy actions;
4) building a nationwide network of government and election observers; and
5) highlighting the role of the courts in our system of checks and balances.
If you are an active member then you should have received an email from LWVUS with the full playbook which outlines calls to action for local leagues and members.
