Weekly Newsletter - July 20

This is important. We're all in this together.

July 17, St. Louis - Make Good Trouble We have only 1 month left to set up our massive volunteer signature-gathering operation. We're still looking for people to help organize signature gatherers in regions throughout the state, serve as notaries when the petitions start coming in, and help make onboarding calls to get folks connected with ways to help. If you're interested in any of these roles or projects, use the links in this email to let us know. Thanks to dedicated volunteers like you, the Respect MO Voters campaign is gaining volunteers and supporters every day! There are many opportunities to get and stay involved. Call to Action Help coordinate signature gatherers in your community Especially in Mid-Missouri and Southwest Missouri!  It will take only about 10 hours per week. To sign up, Email field@respectvoters.org or reply to this email - be sure to include where in the state you're located in your email. Become a notary (or tell us if you already are one) respectMOvoters.org/notary Make Onboarding calls Make calls to welcome new volunteers to the coalition. Email onboarding@respectvoters.org. Seeking Supplies Collect or save corrugated plastic (think yard signs), large rubber bands, and binder clips to use as clip boards for signature gathering. If you've got any of these supplies that you can donate to the campaign, email outreach@respectvoters.org and let us know what you've got and where you're located so we can connect you with the best drop-off location for you.
