I know, some days it is impossible to stay motivated. This is coming from someone whose home is an official “no complacency zone.”
But now is the time to tap into our deepest activist/organizer/teacher/historian/ecologist/artist/journalist/neighbor/friend/parent/child selves and remember what it means to make a difference.
As Graham Nash once sang, “We can change the world, Rearrange the world, It’s dying, To get better.”
First up on my priority list is changing the profile of the United States Senate.
All eleven Democratic women running for Senate this year are worthy of our unbridled support. Some will actually win!!
Please do what you can. These nine have the best chances, but only with our financial contributions. If you live in one of these states you should definitely get a yard sign at the very least!!

The other two candidates are in Montana and Nebraska, and while the odds are also stacked against other contenders in red states (think Tennessee and Oklahoma), the ones above have solid ground games and a little extra cash can make all the difference.
