Hello Democrats,  

The days are getting longer, the temperatures are rising, which means summer is right around the corner -- and so is our next training series! Come (virtually) spend your summer with us at our T3 v.2 training program, and learn the high-level skills you need to win elections. 

This summer at T3 v.2, we will be swapping canoes for canvassing, building coalitions over bonfires, and fundraising instead of floating on the river. As races start to heat up, we’ll be giving you and your teams the tools you need to kickstart your political programs. 

This program will build upon the skills taught in our Spring T3 series, however, registrants are not required to have completed the T3 program in order to participate in our T3 v.2 program. Everyone interested in helping to elect Democrats is welcome to participate!

See below for more information on this and other exciting online training opportunity, and sign up today!

Onward,  

Cheyenne and Bhavana
