LETTERS TO THE EDITOR BLITZ CAMPAIGN
Indivisible Santa Fe is launching a letter-writing campaign to the Santa Fe New Mexican, to address numerous issues facing our local and national elections, as well draw attention to global issues.  Each letter should define and explain the importance of one issue.  a list of important issues is suggested below.  Members are encouraged to choose an issue they are passionate about, write a letter and submit it to the New Mexican.  Not in New Mexico, use one of these issues and write to your local paper!

Topics to consider:  Immigration, Women's Health Services, Inflation, Voting Rights, Gun Violence, Supreme Court Nominees, Supreme Court Corruption, Climate Change, Support for Clean Energy, Election Involvement, Poverty and Homelessness, School Libraries and Staff, Infrastructure, LGBTQ+ issues, Healthcare, Support for Veterans, Separation of Church and State, Freedom of the Press, Foreign Relations, Support for Democratic Candidates, Praise for President Biden's Bravery and Selflessness.

Four of our members have had letters published in the last two weeks.

Opportunities to register voters. Some places need to be contacted ahead of time if you plan to register voters at that event.

August 31-Sept 2, Fiesta Fine Art and Crafts Market.             

Be sure to inquire among your friends if they know any events that might provide voter registration opportunities.  It’s more fun to go with another VRA but not required.  Usually an hour or two is all you need to capture a couple of new voters.  Thanks for all of your help.

As an official Voter Registration Agent, you have a superpower, and we really need your skills and enthusiasm over the next few months to support the Democratic Party of Santa Fe County at upcoming county-wide events. Look at events on this sign up form, or browse the list below. 

Santa Fe Fiesta - Weekend of September 6th - 8th (shifts available all weekend) - sit down, nonpartisan

Sign up for shifts here. All of these events still need help, especially Zozobra and Fiesta. 

After you sign up for an event, I will be in touch with more information for that event. ******

Colleagues -As you may know, The Civics Center works to make voter registration part of every high school in America. We launched High School Voter Registration Week in 2019, and this year it will be Sept. 23-27. I wanted to make everyone on this list aware of the dates and the resources we have available to partners to help spread the word. Our resources are focused on these groups and on teachers and administrators who support their development into future voters and future leaders.
About half of US teens live in states where they can preregister at age 16, and about 20% of the incoming high school seniors will be old enough to vote in November. In many states fewer than 35% of 18-year-olds are registered to vote. Our Substack provides ongoing reports, data, and analysis.
If you are not yet a member of the Ready to Vote coalition we coordinate to support outreach efforts, please consider signing up here.
With great appreciation and all the best,Laura Bril

Depending on the state, even Sophomores and Juniors may be able to pre-register. If they can’t vote this November, we can get them ready for the next one! We offer comprehensive support in setting up voter registration drives in schools, this High School Voter Registration Week and beyond. And we put together a toolkit so you can help spread the word to high school students and teachers in your networks.

Download the toolkit, spread the word, and help make sure this High School Voter Registration Week is one for the books >>
GET THE TOOLKIT The stakes are high for our young people and I know you’re just as excited as we are to make sure they have a voice this November!

Thanks for being a part of this work,

ENDORSEMENT OF VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TO THE PRESS

With the ultimate goal of electing more and better progressive and Democratic candidates in order to overcome the bitterly divisive and harmful policies of Donald Trump and his enablers in the Republican Party, our members endorse Kamala Harris in the 2024 election for President of the United States. 

We believe the future of our incredible democratic republic is at stake and we have the opportunity to enact a new vision of America with less focus on fear and more focus on equality under the law, equity in access to opportunity, and accepting the responsibility of the stewardship of the planet.

We understand that no individual candidate will be perfectly suited to the principles that guide us, and we will not be purists in this once-in-a-lifetime election, although there is little that we would change about Vice President Harris’ legislative positions. We appreciate the policy proposals she envisions. There are many aspects to her experience that will strengthen our democracy and create an environment of opportunity for all. 

We join National Indivisible group’s members in voting nearly unanimously to endorse Vice President Harris for President of the United States. 

“The National Indivisible organization is launching a huge effort to recruit volunteers and voters for Harris. The “All in for Kamala” effort will run from today until the Democratic convention in the third full week of August.” - Washington Post
