Each week, UU Mass Action is hosting a zoom gathering for everyone participating in Reclaim Our Vote phone banking. Reclaim our Vote is a National UU The Vote partner, organized by the Center for Common Ground, a People of Color led organization. This phone banking action is focused on key states that have a history of voter suppression. Volunteers will call voters who are People of Color and provide important information to help increase voter turnout and reduce voter suppression
Dates: Wednesdays 5:00 - 7:00 PM Zoom Link
Oct 7 (Climate Gathering), Oct 14, Oct 21, Oct 28
It's easy, fun and effective! As we rapidly draw closer to election day, phone banking is the best use of your time if you want to have an impact.
Have you taken the 30 minute training yet? Our staff can help you, but it's easier for you if you take the training first

Helpful Suggestions - Prep for Phone banking
1. You'll need to be in front of your computer!
2. You'll be using your own phone to dial. If you don't want your personal number visible to those you are calling, set up a google voice phone now. It's free, click here: https://voice.google.com/ (you'll also need to download the google voice app to your cell phone, or you can call via your computer)
3. It's a good idea to print the phone script, especially if you're not comfortable scrolling through the text on your computer screen while you're talking.
4. Set up your ID Action Account before phone banking tonight
a. Go to: http://centerforcommonground.org/main/
b. Select: Campaigns > The Voter Project > [choose a state]
c. You'll see a county map of the state selected. Scroll Down, and you'll see phone banking options for selected counties. Click on one of the counties
d. Now, you'll see a screen that says, "Get Started." Click that, and create your ID (under the box that says, "Log In." You'll see an option - create an ID Action account)
6. Review these frequently asked questions
UU Mass Action Staff will be hosting the zoom meeting and will be there to answer any questions
