Hello Ventura Indivisians!
Either tweek the header on the Santa Barbara Newsletter – get on their email list here (they are our sister group and we have the same calls to action – for the most part) OR grab and inspirational quote from one of our member’s of congress’s twitter feed (Kamala Harris rocks twitter). Make sure this includes something encouraging… a win, a “go get ’em tiger,” etc. It gets discouraging out here at times! 12 pt font
After your calls to action – events and resources!
Your Calls to Action:
SAMPLE WEDNESDAY bold red – heading 4 – 14pt font
We haven’t forgotten about you, Russia! We’re not in the mood for another Great Recession!
heading 4 – 12pt font The Senate Intelligence Committee is stalling on investigating the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, the House Intelligence Committee has imploded, and the White House is stonewalling requests for information about Mike Flynn. An independent non-partisan prosecutor and commission is long overdue, and Senator Harris is not yet on board.
Script: I’m calling to thank (_____) again for insisting on a non-partisan commission to investigate Russian meddling in our election and that it’s time for this to get started. We’re not going away and we want the scandal resolved.
