WE NEED TO CHANGE THE FACE OF OAKLAND POLITICS

WILL YOU HELP RAISE $35K FOR OAKLAND RISING ACTION IN FIVE DAYS?

ORA is about Economic-Environmental-Racial Justice in Oakland and beyond!

 

2018 is an election year and we have a real opportunity to pass propositions and get values-based folks elected to protect the working-class, immigrants, and people of color.

I've donated and folks in the community are already pitching in, 10, 15, 20 bucks per month, or whatever you can. Some of what we are doing this year:

• $500 for the 500+ Oakland voters we'll speak to each day leading up to elections
• $250 towards recruiting 250 volunteers in 2018
• $100 for the hundreds of signatures we're collecting to qualify crucial issues like the Schools Funding Act (schoolfundingnow.com) for the fall ballot
• $50 which is about dollar a week for the year
• $25 for each of the 25+ precincts in which they’ll knock on doors
• $10 because you believe in our work!

More about Oakland Rising Action

Oakland Rising Action has a model of building community power that works and results in wins. Since 2010, they have built a base of over 62,000 supportive voters - that’s over 25% of all Oakland voters! And their 1-on-1 conversations with voters get the goods. In fact, their work increases voter turnout by 10% amongst people with whom we spoke! That is what flexing political power looks like, and it’s HUGE since many races are decided by just a few hundred votes. Using this model, they were able to help pass expanded renter protections for Oaklanders in 2016 (Measure JJ) and so much more.
