Christian Left Leaders Launch Campaign to Mobilize Voters

Left-leaning religious and civil rights leaders have launched a 30-state campaign they say will "wake the sleeping giant" and mobilize over 15 million poor and low-income voters ahead of the 2024 election. On Monday, Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II led a press conference at The National Press Club alongside his Poor People's Campaign co-chair, Rev. Dr. Liz Theoharis, to announce the details of the new 2024 mobilization campaign. ...The Poor People's Campaign will hold a nationally coordinated day of direct action on March 2 in over 30 state capitals, including Alabama, Texas, Georgia, Illinois and California. The campaign will also hold a rally and a march in the nation's capital on June 15.
