Move On August 5, 2024

Posted on August 5, 2024

Dear MoveOn member,

Who is both our vice president and our future president? Kamala Harris!

With the Democratic National Committee’s nominating roll call vote now closed, Vice President Harris has officially become the Democratic nominee for president!1 With only 92 days left until November 5, it is up to each and every one of us to work together to organize, talk to voters, share our support, and get out the vote.

We want to give you a way to show your support on your sleeve while also giving a nod to Vice President Harris’s love for Venn diagrams, which is why we’ve created this brand-new special-edition T-shirt.2

Just click here or on the image below to get your T-shirt in royal blue or brat summer green, and make sure to check out our Harris 2024 yard signs as well!

This is the perfect shirt to wear when you volunteer—whether that is knocking on doors, writing postcards, or making phone calls—and is also the perfect way to celebrate during Vice President Harris’s upcoming speech at the Democratic National Convention or when you head to the polls to cast your vote.

And here’s the best part: Every dollar you spend on your T-shirt goes directly into funding MoveOn’s massive voter contact and persuasion campaign, helping us reach out to more than 1 million key voters in battleground states and districts with tested methods that data analysis has shown can help turn out tens or even hundreds of thousands of voters who otherwise would have stayed home. And if the elections over the last few years have taught us anything, it is that the winner is likely to be decided by just a few thousand votes spread across a handful of states.

Click here to get your shirt now!

Vice President Harris has been talking about her love for Venn diagrams for years, but it did not become common knowledge until Republicans put out a compilation video about it in an attempt to smear Harris (yes, really).3

They are desperate to find ways to break apart the near-universal support that Harris has received from a broad Democratic coalition, because they are terrified by how quickly the polls have turned against them—and they should be.

Our movement is ready to protect and strengthen our democracy, restore abortion rights, help working families, support our LGBTQ+ community, tackle the climate crisis, expand access to health care, and so much more. And we will do it with Kamala Harris as our president.

Show your support by getting your very own special edition Venn diagram T-shirt today!

Thanks for all you do.

–Kelly, Soraya, Elizabeth, Oscar, and the rest of the team

Want to support MoveOn’s work? Voters just defied history and stopped a MAGA wave of extremism at the polls. But there is more work to do to end the filibuster, codify abortion rights into law, and defend our freedoms, our families, and our futures. We can accomplish all this and more, but only if we work together. 

Will you chip in monthly to power our critical work? 

Yes, I’ll chip in $5 a month.

No, I’m sorry, I can’t make a monthly donation.
