Matching donations

[rydra_wong]

The Great Slate currently has someone matching donations (so anything you donate is doubled)

Over $20,000 of matching left at last tweet: https://twitter.com/Pinboard/status/1053858998355673088

So if you'd like to donate to them but haven't gotten around to it yet, now might be a good time.

We've had lots of great suggestions for targeted actions for the midterms this week, whether you can make donations or not, whether you can phone bank or canvas or not, and whether you live in an area with competitive races or not.

Upcoming Elections - New
Action: Postcards To Voters
More Slates!
Action: Vote Forward
And Now There's Give Smart 3!
Matching Donations for the Great Slate

Other Actions - New
Actions relating to abortion rights

( Upcoming Elections - Ongoing )

( Voter Registration, Voting Rights and How to Vote )

If you're looking for actions not related to the elections, take a look at past check-in posts where we have suggestions specifically for immigration (and also here) and for other issues

( Housekeeping )

So, what have you all been up to in the last week or are planning to get involved in next week?
