The importance of language in political messaging cannot be overstated. In politics, every word counts. A successful campaign can hinge on the artful construction of messages that resonate with voters. Political language is more than slogans; it can bridge the gap between political ideals and public perception. Note the regrettably misunderstood term “Defund the police.”

It behooves all of us to be conscious of the language we’re using and how it will be construed, when talking to others or writing Letters to the Editor. This program will help us fine tune our political messaging to make it most effective.

Our 3 speakers are with a non-profit called Words That W!N dedicated to teaching and promoting strategic messaging to win hearts, minds, and votes. WTW is an all-volunteer group, passionate about good messaging.

If you haven’t already, please check out DORR’s latest issue of Keeping Posted, exclusively devoted to messaging.

This segment is followed by group questions and discussions of the material.

DORR movie – “The Janes” @ Mary Fisher Theatre
May 5 @ 4:00 pm

DORR Film Showing at Mary D. Fisher Theater

Join your DORR friends for a showing of “The Janes”. “The Janes” is a documentary about a network of women who helped other women get abortions prior to Roe.

Purchase here:  Tickets

May 5th at 4pm
Mary Fisher Theater

The Janes offers first-hand accounts from the women at the center of the group, many speaking on the record for the first time, of how they defied the state legislature that outlawed abortion, the Catholic Church that condemned it, and the Chicago Mob that was profiting from it. In the pre-Roe v. Wade era—a time when abortion was a crime in most states and even circulating information about abortion was a felony in Illinois—

On June 24, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that legalized abortion in America. The ruling sparked outrage in a majority of the country. Six weeks after the SCOTUS decision, voters in Kansas rejected a constitutional amendment by 59-41% that would have denied the right to an abortion across that state. But that hasn’t discouraged many states from pushing ahead with various draconian anti-abortion laws that could lead millions of American women to return to the days of illegal and life-threatening non-medical abortions.

Until abortion became legal in 1973, dangerous abortion procedures were happening in cities through the country. But in Chicago, IL, a group of courageous young women risked their freedom trying to help women desperately seeking abortions. To shine a light on this issue that is in the news every day, the Democrats of the Red Rocks (DORR) Film Club is sponsoring the showing of The Janes at the Sedona International Film Festival’s Mary D. Fisher Theatre on Friday, May 5 at 4 pm. Tickets for this special event are $15 ($13 for SIFF members). There will be a panel discussion and Q & A session following the film featuring DORR Board and Film Club members.

The Janes is a 2022 American documentary film. It premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2022, four months before a leaked Supreme Court draft opinion for the abortion case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization led to protests by pro-choice advocates across the U.S., and two weeks before SCOTUS overturned Roe. The Janes tells the story of how in the spring of 1972, police raided an apartment on the South Side of Chicago where seven women who were part of a clandestine network were arrested. Using code names, fronts, and safe houses to protect themselves and their work, this group of unlikely outlaws risked their personal and professional lives to build an underground service for women seeking safe, affordable, illegal abortions. They called themselves “Jane.”

The Janes offers first-hand accounts from the women at the center of the group, many speaking on the record for the first time, of how they defied the state legislature that outlawed abortion, the Catholic Church that condemned it, and the Chicago Mob that was profiting from it. In the pre-Roe v. Wade era—a time when abortion was a crime in most states and even circulating information about abortion was a felony in Illinois—the Janes provided low-cost and free abortions to an estimated 11,000 women. Time Magazine called the film “essential viewing for a post-Roe America.” The Atlantic commented that “the lesson from The Janes is that, in the absence of justice and political power, there’s enormous potential for collective action.”

MAGA Debt Ceiling – Action Call @ phone or email
May 24 @ 12:00 am

The Treasury Department projects that the US government will only be able to pay it’s bills through June 1 without a debt limit increase. That means we’re only eight days away from a default – and the worldwide economic catastrophe it would create! The Republicans are literally holding the debt payment legislation hostage, so they can get budget cuts they want!

There’s still a way to stop the crisis: House Democrats have introduced a Discharge Petition, which is an escape hatch to bring a clean default prevention bill to the House floor, even if Kevin McCarthy tries to block it. For this to work, 218 Members of Congress must sign on and refuse to negotiate on cuts that will hurt our communities.

Please call CD2 Congressman Eli Crane at 202-225-3361 or email him at: https://crane.house.gov/contact and demand that he vote to end the hostage-taking and the cruel cuts to public schools, Medicaid, veterans’ benefits and other life-saving programs that our communities rely on, and instead do the bare minimum of paying for the obligations our government has already incurred.

If the Republicans want to cut necessary programs, they should do it in separate legislation that doesn’t threaten a global financial crisis!

The importance of language in political messaging cannot be overstated. In politics, every word counts. A successful campaign can hinge on the artful construction of messages that resonate with voters. Political language is more than slogans; it can bridge the gap between political ideals and public perception. Note the regrettably misunderstood term “Defund the police.”

It behooves all of us to be conscious of the language we’re using and how it will be construed, when talking to others or writing Letters to the Editor. This program will help us fine tune our political messaging to make it most effective.

Our 3 speakers are with a non-profit called Words That W!N dedicated to teaching and promoting strategic messaging to win hearts, minds, and votes. WTW is an all-volunteer group, passionate about good messaging.

If you haven’t already, please check out DORR’s latest issue of Keeping Posted, exclusively devoted to messaging.

Ali Feldman
Ali Feldman was a speech language pathologist for almost twenty years and then she transitioned into political work involving advocacy, elections, organizing, and communications. Ali currently works for a progressive communications hub in Pennsylvania.

Lisa Wagner
Lisa Wagner is a retired palliative care nurse practitioner who has worked in oncology, neurosurgery, and home hospice. She became more politically engaged after retirement and the 2016 election.

Melissa Knutson
Melissa Knutson is a communications professional with over 20 years experience at a large non-profit organization. She spent her twenties touring Europe as a singer in a rock, folk, pop band and is now devoted to getting progressives to sing from the same playbook.
