Stand Up for Democracy

We support a strong democracy where decisions are made by and for the people, not for corporations and the super-wealthy. The Trump administration is subverting free and fair elections in 2026, while also destroying environmental progress.
The time is NOW to Stand Up for Democracy!

OUR GOALS:

Inform the public about Trump’s anti-voter maneuvers
Mobilize the public to defend free and fair elections
Increase voter turnout and organize voters
Pressure our elected officials to protect democracy
Collaborate with local and national organizations in this work

VOTE EARLY. VOTE SECURE.

We need massive voter turnout to overcome Trump’s threats to corrupt the election and tamper with the US Post Office. Cast a secure vote by voting early using a ballot drop box or going in-person. Use our resources to talk to your family and friends about voting early and securely. And sign up to help phonebank and canvass and spread the word

SD350 is doing weekly phonebanking, canvassing, election monitoring, and more. We also have a voter outreach guide, ballot recommendations, and information on voter rights.

TAKE ACTION

The Stand Up for Democracy campaign is coordinated by our Raise the Alarm Team.

The Stand Up for Democracy Campaign Teams and Projects:

Get out the Vote Priority Area

Vote Early. Vote Safe. Encourage people to get out the vote and vote DAY ONE and use ballot drop boxes.
We will use comms (email, social media, vote webpage), banner drops, door knocking, an Organizing Session event in September, and more to raise awareness!

Mid-term Mobilization Preparedness (MMP)
