Care Over Cost Textbank
Every year, private health insurance companies harm tens of millions of people by making them pay too much or denying them care (medicines, doctor visits, surgeries) they need to be healthy. Meanwhile the same health insurance companies rake in tens of billions of dollars in profit and pay their executives ridiculous salaries. We are texting 800,000 people to find people harmed by private insurance companies who want to take action with us to force those companies to change their ways. Join us here!

The Fundamentals of Organizing (Repeating Monthly)
Join us for a crash course in the craft (and art!) of community organizing. No previous experience required! This training is especially designed for newbies, but can also be a great space for veteran organizers who want to re-ground in the fundamentals. Together we'll spend time reflecting on power, unpacking what distinguishes community organizing from activism, processing our own stories to draw out our self-interest, and learning how to conduct one-to-ones to bring people into our campaigns and organizations. NOTE: The content of the fundamentals training is the same every month, so you only need to attend this training once.

Phone bank for Brittany DeBarros!
Join Global Justice Action and People's Action for a fun group calling session to persuade voters to support Brittany Debarros for New York’s 11th Congressional District. (Volunteers from all states are welcome!) It’s a great way to practice your skills in compassionate, curious persuasion, and we’ll provide all the training you need. Brittany DeBarros is an anti-war veteran who risked her future and her freedom to speak out against our immoral wars while she was still in uniform. She supports global justice, including global vaccine access and global climate justice, in addition being a strong advocate for domestic people’s priorities like Medicare for All and a federal Green New Deal. We’ve seen from the Green New Deal and other movements that even a few committed champions in Congress working together with people’s movements like us can make a world of difference. Her election is on August 23rd, so let’s do this!
