Join us on a canvassing trip by bus. Connect with fellow volunteers as we travel to the Central Valley together. Turn the time on the road into time for conversation, training, solidarity and perhaps a snooze. We'll knock on doors, have conversations and turn out voters we need to win. Sign up for a trip!
We’ll knock on doors for Randy Villegas in CA-22. This race could be won or lost by a few hundred votes, so every knock counts! Randy’s running to fight for working families and protect our democracy. He refuses to accept corporate-PAC money so he can answer to his constituents…not special interests. Let's send Randy to DC in January! There's more information on the signup page.
All phone banks include training and assistance.

We're partnering with Central Valley Matters and raising money for three community-organizing groups in California's CD-22. Our April 28th fundraiser, “Supporting Victory in the Central Valley (CD- 22)," features Dolores Huerta and commmunity leaders. They will update us on what's happening in their communities.
Donations given now allow these groups to hire and train staff, develop voter contact programs and prepare for the influx of volunteers that will come later in the election cycle.

Grassroots groups that organize year-round in communities that have large working class, youth and people-of-color populations build long-term relationships and succeed in their communities in ways that candidates and outside groups cannot.
In 2024, grassroots groups were more likely to reach racially diverse, young, and infrequent voters than political parties and campaigns were. They were also more likely to communicate person-to-person, and they had significantly higher contact rates in key states. [MVP Report].Donations to local groups that know their communities can be highly effective!
