Action: Adopt A State

An initiative from Vote Save America (run by Crooked Media, the people behind the Pod Save America podcast):
You don't live in a battleground state. So how do you help out in the states that will determine who wins in 2020? We finally have an answer: No matter where you live, you can directly support the work of organizers, volunteers, and candidates in the six key battleground states that will be most important to delivering a progressive majority in 2020. Just pick a state below, sign up, and we'll get you everything you need to make a big difference this November.
The states are: Arizona, Florida, Michigan, Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Wisconsin.

Action: Ask for confederate statues to be removed from Congress

Nancy Pelosi has called for confederate statues to be removed from the Capitol Building. In many cases, this is actually "up to the states", because each state can send up to two statues to be included in the National Statuary Hall Collection to "honor persons notable in their history."

You can find out which statues are representing your state and whether you need to contact your representatives to push for their removal at this site:
