Canvass for Prop 50

The November 4 Special Election is less than 8 weeks away, and ballots drop in early October!

That’s why we need you on the phones and on the doors to pass Proposition 50, the Election Rigging Response Act.

Trump and his enablers are playing games with electoral district maps in Texas, Missouri, and elsewhere, and we have to counter those moves to maintain our chance to take the House.

In 2018 we pulled together to win the House and establish a powerful force to contain Trump. He’s even more out of control this time around, making it imperative that we win the House in 2026. Trump knows that, which is why he’s trying to rig the election. We can’t let him do it.

Here are four ways to get involved:

1. Join our canvass events on September 20, October 19, and November 1. We’ll walk out of the Moorpark office and hope to have complementary Prop 50 lawn signs on hand for our volunteers (waiting on delivery!). Sign up here for any or all dates.

2. Become a Neighborhood Captain! Sign up here to receive a printed list of 100 homes near your home to visit with campaign literature on Proposition 50. At your own pace!

3. Walk any Saturday 9am-2pm with the South Bay Labor Council and allies, 2302 Zanker Rd, San Jose.

4. Phone bank with our National Team (Sundays, 3pm-5pm), our Bay Area and statewide partners, or the South Bay Labor Council (M, Tu, W, Th 5-8pm, 2302 Zanker Rd, San Jose).

Together we can pass Proposition 50 and keep Trump and his MAGA enablers from rigging the 2026 election!
