Do you remember that feeling in your gut, waking up the morning after Election Day 2016? I do. For many of us, the tragic outcome of the 2016 election has haunted us, as the daily bombast, spectacle, and scandal of the Trump Administration continue to destroy our democracy. For some, it has motivated and inspired a renewed sense of activism and determination.
Let's make sure that this never happens again. We are less than 2 weeks away from the midterm elections. For the past two years, we have witnessed an insurgency of activism and civic engagement that is unparalleled in my lifetime. I have traveled across the country on behalf of Bros4America to various Indivisible leadership summits and have seen first-hand the amount of hard work and grassroots organizing that has taken place since the day after the election.
I believe we have a chance to make history this November. But we must show up. This is the last stand for our democracy.
Democrats MUST regain control of the U.S. House and/or Senate to restore checks and balances to Washington D.C. and yes, to hold the Administration to account for its rampant corruption and for its role in stealing the 2016 presidential election.
This is our moment. Here are some of the few ways you can get involved:
1. RALLY: We partnered with Mobilize America to provide you with a comprehensive list of volunteer, phone bank, canvas, and other get out the vote events, every single day from now until Election Day.
2. REGISTER: We partnered with ROCK THE VOTE to create a voter registration module on our website. In 90 seconds, you can register to vote for yourself and everyone you've ever known at bros4america.com.
3. RESIST: Join our original support group for live 24-hour in-person discussion and debate. And join our Bros4Beto support group to help Beto O'Rourke win the Texas Senate race against GOP Ted Cruz.
4. REPLAY: Our podcast has been highlighting people of color, female, and LGBT candidates. In the last few weeks, we have been joined by some of the most high-profile congressional candidates in the nation.
Our most recent interviews: Greg Palast, Katie Porter,
Rep. Maxine Waters, Andrew Janz, Liuba Grechen-Shirley, Spencer Bounds, and Mike Levin.
Let's make these final days count. We all remember what it felt like waking up the morning of November 9th, 2016. Join us and let us make a blue wave that sweeps the nation from sea to shining sea.
In solidarity and shared #resistance.
