ONE Campaign


Dear ONE Member,
In the first two weeks of April, Congress will be in recess, and a ONE member wants you to join them on a lobbying visit to your local representative's office.
Visits like this are the most effective action you can take to help end extreme poverty. This face-to-face meeting with your member of Congress or member of their staff will clearly communicate that you want America to keep its commitment to those living in the world's poorest countries.
Join other ONE members in your area for a planning meeting and lobbying visit.
Before the meeting with congressional members or staff, you'll get a chance to talk with other ONE members at a planning meeting this Saturday. To help kick-off the meeting, we will be doing two legislative grassroots conference calls with Susan McCue, ONE Campaign CEO, and Tom Hart, DATA Legislative Director on Saturday. The first will be at 11 a.m. EST Saturday, March 31, with Susan McCue. The second at 4 p.m. EST Saturday, March 31, with Tom Hart. It's an opportunity to discuss the issues and prepare for the visit.
Each individual lobbying meeting has a real and lasting impact, but our true power stems from the fact that ONE members will be meeting with every member of Congress and delivering the exact same message of hope for the world's poorest people.
Learn more and sign up to participate in a lobbying visit.
Thank you,
Vicky Rateau, ONE.org
