Go, Fight, Win!
We're just four days away from Election Day, and we're all in for a big win.
Allies,
We’re only 4 days from the most consequential election in our lifetimes, and there’s so much to do to win this thing before we cross the finish line next Tuesday – or, in our case, before we reach the end zone.
More on that in a minute, but first, here at United For Democracy we’re doing everything we can to get the message out about would-be authoritarian Donald Trump and his horrifying plans to enact Project 2025, a deeply creepy policy manual developed by hard-right MAGA fanatics at the Heritage Foundation. If you haven’t yet had the misfortune of perusing Project 2025 and its plans to make all of our lives unspeakably worse, here are some of the low-lights:
Ban abortion and contraception nationwide
Eliminate student debt cancelation programs and reject safeguards for students against predatory student loan providers
Make housing even more expensive and difficult to obtain
Remove basic workplace protections and allow employers to deny overtime pay
Allow polluters to destroy our air and water
Yikes. We were so horrified by this plan that we, along with our partners at Court Accountability Action, launched the Project2025.WTF campaign to ensure that voters everywhere understand the stakes of this election. Project2025.wtf is backed by a six-figure ad campaign, featuring digital ads, guerrilla marketing, and creative activations, including mobile billboards that are circling Capitol Hill and the Heritage Foundation’s headquarters to call attention to the alarming policies in Project 2025.
But it is critically important that younger, college-aged voters in particular are aware of the havoc a second Trump presidency will wreak. This plan goes at the heart of their futures, and they deserve better. That’s why UFD is mobilizing young voters in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania — collectively known as the “Blue Wall” — at college football’s biggest games. We’re handing out condoms and koozies directing people to Project2025.WTF, and making sure that college voters are aware of the Supreme Court’s role in laying the groundwork for the radical policy agenda of a potential second Trump term.
Last weekend, we were at the Penn State vs. Wisconsin game as well as the Michigan vs. Michigan State games, and we’re not stopping there. This Saturday we’ll be tailgating at the Ohio State vs. Penn State game in State College, PA.
We can deliver a win for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, and we can defeat Trump again. We can do it by making it plain just how dangerous a Trump administration for ourselves, our communities, and our futures.
If you’re in State College tomorrow, come find us!
Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose,
