Sens. Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren, and Jeff Merkley along with U.S. Senate Candidate Jaime Harrison and Progressive Movement Leaders to Join Hundreds of Reproductive Freedom Voters for Virtual Summit
WASHINGTON, DCย โย NARAL Pro-Choice America is hosting its first-everย Activistsโ Summit, โOur Freedom, Our Fight,โ this weekend (Saturday, August 8 and Sunday, August 9) to engage, train and mobilize hundreds of NARAL members as NARAL ramps up its voter contact efforts in the final 80+ days before the election. NARAL President Ilyse Hogue and other NARAL leaders will be joined by Senators Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren, and Jeff Merkley, along with U.S. Senate candidate Jaime Harrison and leaders and experts in the progressive movement.
The summit aims to educate, engage, and empower reproductive freedom activists and supporters from every part of the country, giving them the tools they need to fight back against attacks on abortion access and elect champions for reproductive freedom. The summit will feature workshops on core campaign tactics like hosting voter contact parties, phonebanking, and combating political disinformation.
The Activistsโ Summit is the latest effort in NARALโsย largest-ever electoral programย that plans to invest $34.7 million toward integrated organizing, communications, digital, and political programs designed to target races up and down the ballot across several key states in this consequential election cycle. NARAL has shifted its organizing entirely to a virtual format in the face of the still-raging COVID-19 pandemic and over the past five months, NARAL organizers and volunteers have hosted voter contact parties, phone banks, happy hours, and fireside chats with NARAL-endorsed candidates for elected office.
We & Goliath is proud to support NARAL with virtual event production and management for their first-ever virtual conference.
