Move On – July 28, 2024

Posted on July 28, 2024

Dear MoveOn member,

We are fired up and ready to elect Kamala Harris as our next president—and the support from MoveOn members and voters across the country has been overwhelming! In one week since announcing her candidacy, the Harris campaign raised $200 million and signed up more than 170,000 volunteers.1 

MoveOn members have resoundingly endorsed Vice President Harris with over 87% support—one of the most definitive endorsements in MoveOn’s history—and now it’s time to pull out all the stops to send her to the White House! 

185,000 MoveOn members have already ordered their free “Madam President” sticker to help show our overwhelming support for Vice President Harris to the media, Donald Trump, and his MAGA cronies. Click here to get yours now!

Under Kamala Harris’s leadership, we know we can organize to expand our rights, protect our communities, and use the power of the federal government to advance reproductive freedom and bodily autonomy, climate justice, economic justice, racial justice, and more. One thing has always been clear—voters will determine the future of this country. And in November, it will take all of us coming together to elect Kamala Harris.

In 2020, Kamala Harris made history as the first Black, South Asian, and female vice president in the United States. This year, we can break that glass ceiling once and for all and elect her as our first female president!

With less than four months left until Election Day, we cannot waste a single second, and we need to show the country that we are energized and committed to the Harris campaign.

You can do your part by ordering your free “Madam President” sticker and placing it somewhere visible to help spread the word in your community!

The stakes of this election could not be any more clear. We can’t return to Donald Trump’s presidency and the daily chaos and the struggle of stopping the worst of his attempts to divide us, further dismantle democratic institutions, and roll back our remaining rights and freedoms. The white Christian nationalist Project 2025 takeover plan tells us everything we need to know about the plan for a second Trump presidency. We have to come together as a strong, unified voting bloc to protect our future and elect Kamala Harris.

This is a historic moment and a historic opportunity. Are you ready to get the job done?

Click here to sign the pledge to vote for Kamala Harris for president this fall, and we’ll send you your free “Madam President” sticker!

Thanks for all you do.

–Mohammad, Kelsey, Amanda, Chris, and the rest of the team

P.S. Interested in doing more to help support our efforts to elect Kamala Harris for president? Click here to RSVP to join MoveOn’s national phone bank in support of Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign this Thursday at 7 p.m. ET (6 CT/5 MT/4 PT).

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.

Tell them to vote for their kids, to vote for their brother or sister, for their neighbor. It might matter to that other person and we are MUCH stronger when we do things for each other... not for ourselves. #vote #franklincountywa #bentoncountywa #tricities ... See MoreSee Less

    ADDICTION not only disrupts lives but also has significant social and economic impacts for the larger community. Opening of the Columbia Valley Center for Recovery represents a major advancement in the regional services needed to help address addiction challenges.

    In recognition of the opening of the Center for Recovery, the August 5 Badger Club Forum will feature an important conversation about causes, prevention and treatment of addiction. Two experts will consider what addiction is; the gap between what we know and what we do; what the community is and can be doing; what families need to know; and substance abuse prevention and looking to the future.

    It's August, and by the time we meet (at 6pm on August 14th) we should know the result of the primaries! We are inviting candidates who have made it through the primary to come visit with us. We will also have 'Hate Has no Home Here' and 'Vote Blue' signs available.

    Hey all! Due to the smoke forecast, we're going to our backup venue at the Pasco Round Table Pizza. Still at 6pm on Friday the 14th. The group will order a selection of pizzas and some of our generous members will share some pitchers of beer. You're on your own for salad bar and soda. Sorry about the last minute change!

    Come gather with like-minded folks and share some fellowship, food and beverages. We'll have the donation box available for those who care to financially support the group.
