Time to protest.

Ellen,

Over the last few weeks, we've asked you to take action to call for more debates: you've signed our petition, you've tweeted at the DNC and Senator Sanders—you've worked hard with us to keep this important issue at the front of the national dialogue, and we've seen these efforts pay off. Since then, there have been countless op-eds in Iowa and New Hampshire papers, and a delegate at the DNC summer meeting even called for a resolution for more debates.

People are rallying behind our call for more debates, so it's time to take it up a notch. Recently, we caught wind of a protest happening at Democratic Party headquarters in just two weeks. It's being organized by a group called "Allow Debate," and we want to join forces with them to make this big.

RSVP today for the protest on September 16th. Say you'll be there. It's not far: they're located at 430 South Capitol Street in Washington, D.C., and afterwards you can join us to watch the next Republican debate at a bar nearby.

It's important that we bring our call for more debates directly to the group that is restricting candidates' ability to debate. It's, frankly, undemocratic. Enough tweeting. Let's take action.

So join us and other O'Malley supporters. Join "Allow Debate" and the many voters who feel strongly that at the core of our democracy is the right to openly debate and to give every voter the best possible chance to hear from every candidate before making a critical decision.

RSVP today:
