Climate change action. Voting rights. And more. Will you help America build back better and get out the vote for progress? Please donate here.  Donate $1 (number of Congressional Progressive Caucus Senators) to $100 (number of CPC Representatives), perhaps an amount equal to the number of new members you want to join the CPC in November.  Thank you!

Join fellow Democrats Abroad Sweden members for an online phone banking meet-up on Wednesday, June 1 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm (Sweden time)!

It's our last day to call Americans abroad who vote in AZ, KS, MI, & MO to encourage them to register and request their ballots before the Democratic primaries!

We'll meet online to chat before and after making our calls. Please RSVP for the meet-up link.

Questions? Contact Cassandra at [email protected]

Phonebanking is one of the most effective ways that we use to reach out to voters to make sure that they are registered to vote and have requested their ballots. We have to do all that we can to make sure that WE WIN in November! To help us get out the vote, we are calling members in Germany to remind them to request their ballots for November. For this important endeavor, we need YOUR help.

If you have never participating in phonebanking, then join our Phonebanking Coordinator for this training session. 

Learn or review the why, how, where and when of phonebanking. We'll explain the sign-up system, explore CallHub and do a few demo calls.
