This resolution reflects our ongoing commitment to ease the burden on the most vulnerable of New Yorkers and to make sure justice is accessible to all regardless of their economic circumstances.

Get on the Bus for Hillary, this weekend!

Tildenites,unnamed

This is a wonderful opportunity to get involved to support our endorsed candidate for President. I know it is short notice, but I hope you will join me in helping to get Hilary elected.

The New Hampshire primary plays a pivotal role in presidential politics that few Americans get to experience. The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) is providing a few dozen people the opportunity to be a part of their team for two days working to make history by electing Hillary Clinton as our next President.

Transportation? Covered by the HRC PAC
Hotel? Covered by the HRC PAC
Meals? Two meals a day covered by the HRC PAC

All you need to do is donate $20 online to reserve a seat on the Equality Bus from New York to New Hampshire and agree to help us get out the vote for Hillary Clinton. The first 10 Tilden members will be reimbursed the $20, so this historic trip will be free!

The Details

WHEN
Friday, February 5th
– At 4:45 p.m. the Equality Bus will leave from Midtown, arriving in Manchester, NH around midnight.

Saturday, February 6th – At 8:30 a.m. we will arrive at the Human Rights Campaign Office in Downtown Manchester to begin our day working to elect Hillary Clinton (coffee and light breakfast provided). HRC will host a mixer at a local bar in the evening to connect you with local New Hampshire volunteers.

Sunday, February 7th – At 8:30 a.m. we will arrive at the HRC Campaign Office to begin our day working to elect Hillary Clinton (coffee and light breakfast provided). At 4 p.m. we will board the bus back to Manhattan, arriving no later than 11:45pm.

ACCOMMODATIONS
HRC has a block of rooms reserved in Manchester, NH. HRC will provide transportation to and from the hotel. There will be two people to a room and you have the option of choosing your roommate if you’re traveling as a pair. For a $300 donation, you can have your own private room for both nights, for one or two people.

ACTIONS You will be working side by side with HRC staff and volunteers making phone calls and going door-to-door getting out the vote for Hillary.

RESERVE YOUR SPOT TODAY!

Be sure to reply to this email to let us know that you signed up and be sure to check in with me before you get on the bus.

Democratically yours,
Sandro Sherrod
District Leader
