Today’s Action: Take a day off…but plan ahead for The Last Weekend


A word from our founder: Organized labor didn’t just give workers livable wages, safe conditions, security, and weekends. It allowed many to work a job with dignity. And the Republican Congress assaults these things. They already have no dignity, so in November, let’s take their jobs. (TWEET THAT)

Today’s Action: Take a day off…but plan ahead for The Last Weekend

Today we celebrate American workers and our country’s monumental labor movement. For most of the 20th century, labor unions had a profound presence in the workforce and we have them to thank for safe working conditions, liveable wages, job benefits, overtime, the minimum wage, weekends — and very often, the lack of unions is to blame when those values are missing from a place of employment.

But Corporate America, working hand-in-hand with the Republican Party, has spent the past 40 years weakening and dismantling unions across the country. Workers rights have plummeted as the 1% has soared.

To take back the rights of working families — and to really celebrate this holiday — we must focus our efforts on electing pro-union Democrats who support a living wage, family leave, and more. Study after study shows that the best way to Get Out The Vote is having conversations in the four days leading up to Election Day. Just voting isn’t enough — The Last Weekend is asking us to dedicate as little as one hour November 3-6 to talking with fellow voters and pushing us through an Election Day victory.

Sign up to volunteer 1-3 hours during The Last Weekend, November 3-6. Get Out The Vote and support American workers in the single most effective way — by talking with fellow voters!

Midterms are two months away — just two months until our chance to flip Congress and swing disgruntled red districts toward progressive, pro-union leaders. We have exciting momentum humming in Trump-states from Wisconsin to Texas (including a chance to unseat Sen. Ted Cruz!), but we absolutely are not out of the dumpster fire yet.

If you’ve been holding off on volunteering for election season, The Last Weekend is the perfect time to make the commitment — sign up now to receive instructions! Volunteer efforts will be what hikes those turnout numbers and Democratic vote tallies. Make your hours count when they matter most and be part of a laborer’s victory on November 6!

Sign up for The Last Weekend and commit 1-3 hours talking with fellow voters. Just a few hours of volunteering to flip Congress and support American workers!

PS — Please don’t forget to sign the petition to end the cash bail system that incarcerates innocent poor people and lets the rich run free, and check out the brilliant “Don’t Think of an Elephant” by George Lakoff — a quick read that contains the ultimate keys for Democrats to win elections — and arguments.
