​2020 ACTION MENU

We ask each of our members and friends to commit to one or more actions from the Menu this week.

Calls to Action
Call/email your state/federal reps for accountability and for policy advocacy. ICG publishes CTAs on our Facebook page and in our newsletter. Each CTA includes a message and contact info for your reps.

LTE Circle
Join this ICG group to take turns submitting LTEs (letters to the editor). Use our messaging, or create your own. Connect with Rhonda for more info and to volunteer.

Postcards to Voters
Our postcarding together is on Covid hold, of course, but here’s how to write postcards-to-voters from home. ICGers are continuing to write to legislators on state & federal issues, and to voters in key districts across the country, so please do join in.

SwingLeft Letter-Writing
Our popular and productive letter-writing parties are on Covid hold now, of course, but you can do letter-writing with us in two ways:
  • You can join a VIRTUAL letter-writing party, currently being held twice a month.
  • You can write SwingLeft letters ANYTIME from home:
    • Request and pick up a prepared packet of 20 letters and envelopes ($13 donation requested to cover costs of packet + postage), or 
    • Download and print and send your own.

DONATE HERE  
We’re all-in for CHANGE in 2020. Can you help fund our SwingLeft letter-writing project to register/engage voters in the 12 “Super States?" It will run through October and cost over $4000 (for postage, printing, supplies). Thanks for considering!
