DESCRIPTION:With the vote on November 5th fast approaching, we need your help now more 
 than ever to protect animals, the environment, public health, and small 
 farms in Sonoma County. Join us for our major Get Out The Vote (GOTV) 
 outreach event to ensure our neighbors vote YES on Measure J! This is our 
 chance to end the inhumane practice of factory farming and promote a 
 healthier, more sustainable future—but we can’t do it without 
 you!\n\nNo matter your experience level, there’s a role for everyone. 
 Whether you’re a seasoned volunteer or just getting started, your voice 
 can make the difference in turning out voters and getting Measure J 
 passed.\n\nWhy YES on Measure J?\n\nMeasure J is a bold, transformative 
 initiative that will:\n\n* Protect Animals: Factory farms in Sonoma County, 
 such as Perdue's Petaluma Poultry and Reichardt Duck Farm, subject animals 
 to horrific conditions. By voting YES, we can help protect animals from 
 this abuse.\n* Protect the Environment: Concentrated Animal Feeding 
 Operations (CAFOs) are major contributors to air and water pollution. 
 Measure J helps protect Sonoma County from further environmental harm.\n* 
 Promote Public Health: Stopping factory farming reduces the risk of 
 zoonotic diseases, which can jump from animals to humans, safeguarding our 
 community's health.\n\nWhat to Expect:\n\nThis event is about coming 
 together to make a lasting impact. We'll kick off with a short training 
 session for those doing door knocking to ensure everyone feels confident 
 and equipped to speak with voters. Volunteers will be provided with all the 
 necessary flyers and talking points to help inform residents about the 
 urgency of Measure J. We'll also have banner dropping available! We will 
 brief on locations and split into teams to display our message in 
 intersections and/or overpasses. We'll share the importance of this 
 critical vote and what’s at stake for our community.\n\nDetails\n🗓️ 
 When: Saturday, October 19th, from 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM\n📍 Where: Live Oak 
 Park, 2490 Darla Dr. Santa Rosa, CA 95401\n\nHow to Prepare:\n\n* Wear 
 comfortable shoes—there will be lots of walking!\n* Bring water and stay 
 hydrated.\n* Dress for the weather—sunny skies are expected, so don’t 
 forget your hat and sunscreen.\n* Snacks and plant-based food will be 
 provided, along with a community dinner after the event.\n\nRSVP 
 Now!\n\nThis is our last big push before Election Day, and we need every 
 voice to help amplify the message. Sign up now at www.YesOnJ.vote/volunteer 
 to join us in this pivotal moment for Sonoma County.\n\nLet’s create a 
 better future for Sonoma County. One door at a time.\n
