Each of you is probably as overwhelmed by shock, horror and grim predictions about American values and democracy as we are. The coming elections this November and in 2028 will be turning points, one way or the other. They are our best chance to take power from Trump and block MAGA atrocities. Yes, Trump will try to steal the election, but he will fail because WE will stop him.
With control of the House, ICE murder funding bills won’t get passed, and Democrats can investigate this corrupt regime. With control of the Senate, incompetent MAGA judges don’t get confirmed to lifetime appointments.
We are each facing the question of how to maximize our contributions to midterms in terms of what dollars we have to spend and what time we have to invest. Living in the East Bay, we don’t get to vote in the battleground areas that will determine who controls the House and Senate. But by partnering with an organization like Flip the Vote (https://www.flipthevote.org), we can support effective, year-round grassroots organizing and movement building in swing states crucial to winning the House and Senate. Flip the Vote (FtV) does the research for us, helping us direct our investments to where they will do the most good.
Join us (Debi Clifford, Dave Belden, Isabel Berkelhammer and David Fisher + other IEB friends) to learn about FtV’s plans to win big in November and take back the House and Senate.
This meeting will take place on Zoom. Once you sign up via Mobilize, one of the event co-hosts will register you officially so that you receive the Zoom link and details by email.
