Today’s Action: Sign up for Georgia runoff letter writing with the cast of Hamilton!
Usually, the Friday after Thanksgiving is a day for resting — and while we here at OD Action certainly still want you to enjoy your holiday, the Georgia runoff election is just too important to our progressive cause for us to slow down now. While Democrats will in fact retain control of the US Senate, Sen. Raphael Warnock’s runoff contest against the observably awful Herschel Walker on Dec. 6th is absolutely critical.
We must stay engaged and involved and keep Georgia blue. We need as many progressives in office as possible to preserve the rights we’ve been fighting so hard for — reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ rights, gun-safety initiatives, justice reform, etc. One more seat in the Senate could mean the difference between advancing our progressive agenda or watching Mitch McConnell obstruct and disrupt any further progress over the next two years. You don’t have to be a seasoned professional or a registered voter in Georgia to join this fight, just be ready to channel the late, great John Lewis and stir up some “good trouble.”
Good, old-fashioned letter writing is one effective way you can pitch in from the comfort of your own home. Tonight from 6-7pm EST, Vote Forward is hosting an amazing letter-writing opportunity, where you’ll be able to write alongside others and learn tips to refine your message to voters. On top of having the wisdom of the Vote Forward team on tap, you’ll also get to hear from past and present Hamilton cast members!
PS — Please don't forget to sign the petition to kick Trump off of Twitter again, and be sure to follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
