SPEAK OUT SENIORS
Take Action Now- Its not too late!
In the present environment with the avalanche of challenges to our democracy that "flood the zone," Speak Out Seniors identifies key ACTIONS that seniors can take immediately to resist. Each of us can make a difference.
We are working together to peacefully resist the forces toward a "unitary executive" that threaten the foundation of our democracy.

MIND THE GAP
Final Candidate Recommendations
Many of us continue to get texts daily from candidates in high-profile races. Many of you have asked if you should send money to these races to help them get over the finish line. Our answer is this: If you want to give this late in the cycle, give where it will truly matter.
All of the high-profile races (e.g., James Talarico, Jon Ossoff) are saturated with cash. But money can make a difference in highly competitive races that you might not be hearing from right now. We’ve identified six where it could matter a lot.We reviewed candidate fundraising, outside spending, and polling data, and these races all have competitive dynamics where additional dollars could flip a loss to a win

The House map has evolved considerably since the beginning of the year, and many of the opportunities MTG identified early are now at the center of the national conversation. We hope you'll take some time to watch the briefing and review our final recommendations as we sprint toward November 3.
League of Women Voters, Palo Alto
We are nonpartisan, not neutral.
Remaining nonpartisan does not mean staying silent. When democracy itself is under threat, voter access is restricted, or misinformation spreads, the League has a responsibility to speak out clearly and forcefully. We advocate for fundamental rights and freedoms, regardless of which political party is in power or which officials are responsible. Focusing on our issues, not affiliations, strengthens our voice and credibility. We hold true to our mission without being beholden to any political agenda. https://lwvpaloalto.org/
