| Pamela, Tufts University's Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) just released new research on the states where young people will have the most influence in 2024. If you've been following Rise's work for a while, then these states should look familiar. Four of the top five states for the presidential election include Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Michigan, states where Rise has spent years organizing young people—and our top targets for 2024. CIRCLE's polling confirms what we already knew: not only are young people instrumental to progressive campaigns across the country, but we need to have a state-specific approach to making sure they turn up to the polls. Not to toot our own horn, but Rise has been doing this work since Day One, and we've already got organizers on the ground in these states organizing to break youth turnout records in 2024. Our youth organizing doesn't just work—it's one of the most effective in the nation. Will you support our proven organizing work with a contribution today? If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your secure donation will go through immediately: Rise has been softening the ground for the upcoming presidential election since the day after the presidential election in 2020. We've been recruiting, training, and paying hundreds of college students and youth organizers, connecting young people with their peers, and elevating the voices speaking about the issues that mattered the most directly to young people. And the results speak for themselves. When the nation's leading youth civic engagement researchers are telling the nation to pay attention to states you've been working in for years, you know you're on the right track! Our organizing model depends on grassroots contributions from folks like you, and it's your support that has allowed us to have such an impact on the political landscape for young people. Rise is spending the last few weeks of 2023 preparing to mobilize young people across the country next year. Will you chip in today and help us expand capacity for our groundbreaking voter mobilization efforts? Thank you! Team Rise P.S.
