Virginia Rural GroundGame
When people hear from trusted messengers—family, neighbors, people they know and trust—they get a personal perspective of the real-world effects of hurtful policies and actions. Well-told personal stories delivered to a wide-ranging network of media outlets can change hearts and minds.
Virginia has critical elections this year, a first-in-the-nation opportunity to reject the cruel and destructive Republican agenda. Rural GroundGame (RGG) is working to ensure rural voices are heard, especially those impacted by harmful policies like Medicaid cuts.
Lean Left is helping RGG in two critical ways:
We are calling rural voters to hear their stories about the real-world consequences of these policies and help RGG build their bank of authentic storytellers across the state.
We are raising funds to help cover the cost of the dialer system that makes this outreach possible.
Our goal: Raise $7000, which will allow us to make 100,000 calls (over the next three months) to rural Democrats who did not vote in 2024.
