With a voter mobilization kick-off on October 20th the San Bernardino Social Justice Coalition Steering (SBSJC) Committee has seen some hard work and has found success.
Working in a coalition with local San Bernardino community activists and CBOs they have dispatched daily walk teams to contact thousands of voters in the city of San Bernardino. To date over 3,000 homes have received literature for the upcoming November 6 election. Now the SBSJC is preparing its walkers for a disciplined and targeted GOTV weekend and Election Day mobilization.
Paraphrasing the words of coalition organizer, Esther Portillo, "A big shout out goes out to the CCAEJ, Libreria Del Pueblo, and Time For Change Foundation for mobilizing their bases and leadership to the participate in these walks and for making a commitment to this groundbreaking campaign in San Bernardino!"
PowerPAC is proud to support this coalition and others like it. Without community based and community led movements like these - California will continue to lack true demographic representation in its elected officials, social justice in its communities, and economic success for its unheard workers.
So join us and stay tuned... this is just heating up... we've got a lot of road to cover in California to support coalitions like these while bringing attention to more opportunities for progressive change!
