Honest Media Against Right-Wing Propaganda in PA:
Support Democracy-Promoting Content Organizing and Distribution by Courier Newsroom
Our support is to hire and support a content organizer specifically for organizing content for Pennsylvania audiences, with distribution through a variety of channels but especially through social media "influencers" aimed at all-important low- information voters. Courier has a strong track effort in this arena and is well poised for it.
PA is a must-win State in 2024 for the Presidency, the US Senate and the US House

31st Street Strategy, in a Nutshell
-
Election "infrastructure" is crucial.
-
There are major issues with the standard approach used by many other organizations:
-
"Boom and Bust" cycle around the time of elections
-
Siloed campaigns; disjointed & uncoordinated efforts
-
Too much, and too late, dependence on TV
-
Failing to organize locally year-round & on-the-ground
-
-
We build infrastructure in states with key elections, especially US Senate races, via organizations that do year-round, on-the-ground organizing.
-
Support State Party year-round organizing following successful Wisconsin model e.g. PA, NC and MI
-
Grassroots groups in PA, NC and GA
-
-
We especially look for opportunities to reach working class and rural voters.
-
Working America's outreach to working class voters appears attractive, including for members to engage with voters in Pennsylvania.
-
We provide very selective candidate support where our dollars will be most effective.
