Postcarding
Postcarding
Postcarding for Jasmine Clark will resume the week of August 7.
The postcard campaign focuses on people who are new to HD 108 as a result of redistricting.
The message introduces them to Jasmine and alerts them to the upcoming election.
As soon as the cards arrive, Kate King (a co-lead for Necessary Trouble's postcarding work) will send out a "Call for Action" with instructions about getting, writing, and mailing the cards. To sign up to do postcarding with Necessary Trouble, email Kate King at katekinghd@gmail.com.
