The Native Organizing Fund is ready to get on the ground to get ready for 2022.

On May 9th, 2021 we are launching the Family Votes Program and getting local organizers back to work on Apache, Hopi, and Navajo lands in Arizona. The 2022 elections are every bit as consequential for Native Voters as the 2020 races and we need to invest in tribal communities now. Our Family Votes program will cost $65,000 to start early mobilizing efforts this summer.

Arizona voters must defend Mark Kelly’s U.S. Senate seat, Tom O’ Halleran’s (CD-01) U.S. House seat, and every statewide office down ballot. Investment into the Family Votes Program will go toward hiring four full time organizers on three sovereign nations; Hopi, White Mountain Apache and Navajo Nations. We have the talent and playbook from 2020 and we know how to strategically operate in the pandemic. Our team is more than ready, especially now that Republicans are pushing every voter suppression they can conjure up to prevent Indigenous and Black and Brown voters from casting their ballot.

Daily Kos readers generously contributed to our 2020 Native organizing campaign and we secured a win for the Democrats with early and direct local investment. We need your support again. Our fundraising goal for April is $10,000; this will cover initial field team costs for May.
