Hi, all.
True apologies for drowning you in emails today.
First, the link to sign up for Wednesday’s event didn’t work. Nice one! Here is the correct link.
Also, I almost forgot that there is an incredible Pennsylvania-related webinar happening TOMORROW, too. And I can personally vouch for this speaker and the work she’s doing. It’s incredible and may save the country.
The webinar is tomorrow, Tuesday, at 5 pm Pacific / 8 pm Eastern. It’s called:
Reproductive Rights and the Midterms post Roe v. Wade: Communicating to Win
And the speaker is Jackie Payne, Founder & Director of GALvanize Action.
GALvanize is on a mission to persuade (mostly white) women who may have supported Trump in 2016 to "vote their values." It’s the only date-driven organization targeting these voters, who are critical to holding the House and Senate in November.
Jackie will share with us how she has learned to shape messages that move these women to support reproductive rights.Â
Jackie will be joined by Carrie Santoro, Director of Pennsylvania Stands Up. Carrie is on the front lines in a state where the election for governor is clearly defined between a pro-choice and anti-choice candidate. Carrie will share how PASU gets their message through to community members across the state to elect a governor who will work to protect access to abortions.Â
This event is hosted by Airlift, one of my favorite volunteer-run groups raising money for progressive candidates and organizations. There will be a donation ask, but it’s optional.
I can’t recommend attending highly enough. The work Jackie is doing at Galvanize is GENIUS.
More soon—but not too soon, I promise. (:

P.S. Thanks to all of you who gave to my States Project Pennsylvania fundraiser! We’ve raised just over $3500! WOW! I have increased the goal to $5000, so there’s still time to donate if you haven’t given yet! ALL of the money raised will go to candidates running to flip Statehouse seats blue in PA. WOOT! Give here.
