The midterm elections are approaching fast and you have the opportunity to get more involved in making sure that progressives turnout and vote this November. People For the American Way needs your help in contacting our members to make sure our progressive voices are heard at the ballot box! Over the past six years, we have seen an abuse of presidential powers undermining our country’s system of checks and balances, an erosion of fundamental civil liberties, irresponsible tax and spending policies and a disastrous foreign policy. It is time for a change – let’s make this A November to Remember! People For the American Way has organized a series of phone banking nights to make focused calls to our members in key districts where important ballot measures and candidate races are taking place and WE NEED YOUR HELP! Our first phone bank will be on Wednesday, October 4 from 6:00-9:00 pm at the PFAW Northeast Regional Office at 149 5th Avenue, 7th Floor, in New York City. Phone banking will continue every Monday – Thursday until the election on November 7. Light snacks and refreshments will be served and volunteers will be briefed with inside information about the midterm election.

MoveOn.org is the force Republicans seem to fear most right now, at least that is how I interpret their nearly hysterical whining about MoveOn.org. Want to join in on the MoveOn effort to oust as many Republicans as possible? Here's MoveOn.org's latest GOTV effort:

Develop, Don't Destroy Brooklyn is putting on their second annual walkathon to raise money for their legal fund.

We will be there again this year. From DDDB:
