Chop Wood, Carry WI 4/24 🧀
I'm subbing for Dan Pfeiffer. Also, more voter protection opportunities!
Hey, Team Wisconsin!
So the folks at Airlift asked me if I could step in for Dan Pfeiffer, who was supposed to speak at their Wisconsin-focussed Zoom fundraiser on the 30th but had to cancel. I said yes. I am infinitely less qualified, informed or famous, but someone had to do it. Can you come?
Here’s the info from Airlift:
Winning the Youth Vote in Wisconsin—with Leaders Igniting Transformation (LIT)
New Headliner: Jessica Craven
April 30, Tuesday 5 pm PT / 8 pm ET
We are thrilled that Jessica Craven has agreed to headline our event focusing on the youth vote (Dan Pfeiffer had to reschedule for later in the summer). Jessica is a frontline activist and organizer herself, author of the hugely popular and inspirational Chop Wood Carry Water newsletter, and creator of Political TikToks. Come hear Jessica discuss what makes Wisconsin a key tipping state in the 2024 election, and how winning the youth vote is key to victory there. Â
I’m going to be winging it, but the speakers from Leaders Igniting Transformation (LIT) are going to be phenomenal. You’ll learn a lot about how we’re going to win in Wisconsin. Please come! No donation required, although they’ll make a donation request (optional) at the event.
Hope to see you there!
