Day 3️⃣ of the Democratic Convention – fired up, ready for Walz

The energy in Chicago was at an all-time high last night. We enjoyed celebrating each state’s support of Vice President Harris during an epic roll call vote approving her nomination and were inspired by each speaker, especially Rabbi Sharon Brous, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, Governor JB Pritzker, and, of course, Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff. At the end of the night, former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama rallied Democrats, spoke about the urgent need to win in November, and instilled hope for the future. We’re fired up to elect Democrats, and we are ready to welcome Governor Tim Walz to the stage tonight.

In case you missed it – here are some of the highlights from yesterday as we move into day three.

Grab one today, and while you’re there, pick up a matching “Doug for First Mensch” shirt or sticker, “Momala for President” hat, “Kamala in Hebrew” button, and more!

Listen to Michelle Obama

Michelle Obama had an important message for Democrats last night: DO SOMETHING. When Republicans lie about Kamala Harris’s record on the issues important to Jewish Americans, do something. Tell them the truth and help get her elected.

And here’s something you can do right now: Sign up to contact Jewish voters in the swing states and districts that will decide control of the White House, the Senate, and the House.

SIGN UP TO CALL JEWISH VOTERS

Thank you. We look forward to keeping you updated about the final days here in Chicago.

Sincerely,

Halie Soifer
CEO, Jewish Democratic Council of America
