Hi, all. It’s Sunday after a brutal week. There’s no mitigating the horror of the current moment, but let’s at least take a second to celebrate the positive things that were also happening while tragedy was unfolding elsewhere. Two things can be true at once: the world is a heartbreaking mess,
Haha I finished it last night and scheduled it to send early this AM. But I was up fairly early anyway--my 14 year old had 5 friends sleep over for their birthday --they’re all in our living room and the animals wanted to investigate 😂
The cartoon….😂 . And of course she has a child “working” her costume!
“Nearly one-third of Native Americans nationwide are not registered to vote.”😔
One of my fave orgs to support is Northeast Arizona Native Democrats. They have been very successful at registering voters ! Upcoming vol opportunities on Mobilize for phonebanking/postcarding. 📞✍️
Can you provide the link to your postcarding document, please. Lots of postcarders in my area, and they are always looking for campaigns to work on. Thanks.
And I thought you might add the following, or something along these lines, to the list as a very inexpensive way to make dozens of postcards, for those with less resources.
Purchase a ream of card stock and have your local print or office supply shop cut them into 1/4's. Most reams have either 250 or 500 sheets, which would give you 1,000-2,000 blank postcards to write on, for less than $50.
Thank you for these. It’s been a brutal week and I took a couple of mental health days away from the news. I’ve been catching up this morning and will end my catch up with this helpful and hopeful list 😊❤️🙏
I look forward to seeing your roundup of good news. I forward it to my family. Today I also (finally) subscribed because I truly appreciate your efforts every day of the week.
Thank you!!! I really needed the good news this morning. It is sustaining.
Very happy to help, Michael.
My, we're up early this good Sunday morning!
All are great. Especially like the White House Virtual toward (second to last)

Crazy, more like it. But actually it was great.
I kind of knew it would be! Just the little that I've heard you share, you are a terrific mom. Blessings, every day!
Thank you, Jessica for all the good news. Love the cartoon!
The governor of the state I reside in. Podiumgate along

Yup here you go. I've taken a bunch of VA and OH-related campaigns off as they've just ended but I'll be adding more as we get into 2024 and postcarding ramps back up again. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ADX8_k9WoPJDFwKiMRLYfTEThGP23yGyqytylpSxn8M/edit

Not all heroes wear capes. Jessica, you're my hero.
Aw, thank you Rick.
Jess, are you aware that Semaphore has partnered with a Chinese group? Should we be concerned?

Ew no! Yikes. I'll have to look into that.
