Call to Action
On Tuesday mornings in June, the Program Committee has agreed to initiate a one hour coordinated WILPF member Call To Action. We’ll meet via ZOOM for a focused WILPF-framed calling effort. We’d like to have as many members as possible gather for a short and focused hour.
One Issue a Week
Each week we’ll choose ONE issue that requires citizen advocacy for or against what’s going on in Congress. We’ll provide the background you need to speak about the chosen issue, talking points to make your pitch, and the phone number for the Congressional Offices. (We do not have the ability to connect you directly.) We’ll briefly discuss the messaging you need to use, the issue itself, and then provide a 10-15 minute window of quiet time while you make your phone calls using our “script and talking points”. Finally we’ll share with each other the results of the phone calls we make, even if it’s just that you had to leave a message on a voice recording, or you didn’t get through at all.
This is about having an impact and raising the visibility of WILPF as we advocate for the issues. It’s also about providing a sisterly solidarity for consistent targeted action and advocacy. From all over the US, WILPF members can join together in a united effort that centers our values and keeps us feeling empowered to make a difference.
Tuesday, June 24
8am PT/10am CT/11am ET
