Hey, ICM. Ready to do more postcards?

Posted on by Kathy Foldes

ICM, are you ready for another postcard effort? This one is with Swing Left to ensure passage of HR. 1/S 1. We will be both doing postcards and calls to voters in AZ for them to call/email Sen. Sinema to urge her to support voting rights. This may also mean making sure that the filibuster does not stop passing S1/voting rights. The text is already printed on the postcards and all volunteers have to do is write 1-2 scripted sentences. The postcards also have address labels. It will take less than 2 minutes to complete each postcard.

Email Michelle Inness at mhughes56@comcast.net to get signed up.
We will need donations of money and stamps.

For some of us, the recent stimulus payments are essential – replacing lost income and helping get by until we beat this pandemic. For others, the need is not as great.

Join Saturday phone banks to voters to fight voter suppression bills in their states!

Phone bank to protect voting rights · Mobilize
Join us every Saturday from 2:00 to 4 pm PST to call voters of color in key districts, connecting them directly to their state senators to oppose new voter suppression bills. We will be using Call Hub, a new user-friendly dialer that allows the volunteer to patch the voter directly to their state senator’s phone number in real-time. We will help you set up a CallHub account, walk you through the process of making the calls, and answer your questions. (41 kB)

Green New Deal forum on March 13th at 4 pm

Posted on by Kathy Foldes

ICM come and participate!

Sunrise Beaverton partnered with WashCo Young Dems and 350pdx – Washington County Team for this Green New Deal Public Forum on March 13th at 4 pm.
The Green New Deal often gets dismissed as a ‘pie in the sky’ national bill and the right wing / fossil fuel interest work overtime to spread misinformation about the GND. We’re going to dive into what the GND would mean for us at the local level, what initiatives we currently have that fit within the GND framework, and also have the opportunity to engage with a slate of elected officials from various Cities, Washington County, & Metro government on what work is happening now to address the climate crisis. We will be announcing the elected officials in the coming days!
Please join us and our partners for this event next weekend.
