- Count every vote
- Show up in November — and in between

Healthcare, work and climate

Light-hearted and hopeful

Tips for a sign people can read
- Keep it to about six words so it reads from across the street.
- Thick, dark letters on a light board are easiest to read and photograph.
- Write on both sides — you'll be seen coming and going.
- Keep it peaceful: no threats, no personal attacks, no hate.
- Check local rules on stick size and materials before you go.
