A Call to Action!

Dear Planned Parenthood Advocates,

We need your continued support and determination, now more then ever.

How can you help? Join us at events, rallies, write letters, be heard and wear PINK!


Top Actions:


Faso Watch: What we need? People to show up outside his office in Kinderhook and letters to the editors.

Voter Registration in NY19; What we need? Volunteers to canvass on Sunday, May 7.

See below for more details!

FASO WATCH!
As most of you know, Congressman Faso has stated publicly he would not vote to defund Planned Parenthood but then pledged to vote to repeal the ACA which included the defunding of Planned Planned Parenthood. He has stated that he understands the important services Planned Parenthood provides to our communities. We want to let him know we expect him to vote no on any legislation, including stand alone or ACA repeal, that includes language to defund Planned Parenthood. We need to demonstrate the depth of support Planned Parenthood has in Congressional District NY19.

Upcoming Actions!

Faso Friday rallies outside Congressman Faso's Office in Kinderhook
  • Join Indivisible Chatham NY and Upper Hudson Planned Parenthood together with other local activists to rally outside Congressman John Faso's office in the Village of Kinderhook at 2 Hudson Street every Friday from 12:00pm to 1:00pm.
  • We will be there on April 27!
  • RSVP and SHARE on Facebook!
Letters to the Editor
  • If you are interested in submitting a letter to the editor on issues related to Planned Parenthood and specifically the repeal and replace of the ACA, please contact us. We can provide talking points or a written letter that you can customize.
  • Need asap!
  • Email Katherine Bruno at katherine@uhpp.org for more information!

VOTER REGISTRATION!

Sunday, May 7th: Get out the Vote! Join with #NY19Votes

Join NY19Votes and help build on the momentum from Resistance Voter Registration by making our NY19 Votes Spring Canvass as powerful as possible. Let's continue to register and engage voters across the district, and in warmer weather!

Site Canvassing: On May 7th along with knocking doors we'll be training and sending canvassers to bus stops, shopping plaza parking lots, parks and everywhere there is heavy foot traffic to talk to voters and folks who need to register to vote.

Neighborhood Team Leaders— We're seeking dedicated volunteers and teams to adopt neighborhoods and canvass those neighborhoods throughout the entire election cycle.  Neighborhood Team Leaders will receive extensive training to listen to, learn from, then energize and activate their neighborhood electorate in November.

Spring Canvass Webinar/CC: Wednesday, May 3rd, 8-9.30pm. Sign up for details here!

Thank you for your support,
