Hello, fellow MoveOn member! Ilana Glazer here.
I'm a creator and comedian best known for "Broad City," and I'm the founder of the voter empowerment org Generator Collective. I find comedy everywhere in my life, but these midterms are no joke! In 10 days, the midterm elections will determine control of the Senate and the House of Representatives.
Whoever is in charge will determine all this:
- Whether Congress tries to protect abortion rights in law. (Hint: Stronger Democratic majorities have committed to this; MAGA Republicans will vote for a national abortion ban.)
- Whether anyone will be held responsible for the deadly January 6 insurrection. (Hint: Democrats will continue the blockbuster investigations; some MAGA Republicans were part of the insurrection ... so not so much.)
- Whether Congress is trying to help regular folks get by. (Hint: Democrats just taxed big corporations more and made hearing aids affordable and want to cap prices on insulin; Republicans want to ban kids' books to distract us from their giveaways to oil companies.)
From your very own home, you can make the difference by talking to folks who are likely to agree with us on the issues but could use a little nudge to vote. We help connect to them and help them make a plan—which studies show actually helps get people to the polls. My organization, Generator Collective, has been focused on creating honest messages to motivate people to vote. Check out one of our latest:
Phonebanking: It's fun. It's easy. It's impactful. You can do it in your PJs. Or in a gown! Really, however you want.
Thanks for all you do.
