Passing statewide progressives policies in states dominated by conservative state legislatures may have once felt impossible. But with the rise of our communities strategically using ballot measures to pass everything from Medicaid expansion to minimum wage to marijuana legalization, times have changed!
Even if your state doesn't allow citizen-initiated measures at the statewide level, it may allow them at the city and county levels, which can be perfect places to pass local policies in communities that set the path for statewide change - and make immediate change for folks in your state!
Join us to learn from your organizing peers in Idaho, Nebraska, Kansas, and Texas about:
