A father and husband, Ian is another fantastic phone banker referred to us by Vote Save America/Adopt a State.
A resident of a purple area of western Massachusetts, Ian often sees homes with Black Lives Matter signs next to homes with pro-Trump signs. “It is unfortunate that many Americans see these causes as contradictory – Black lives matter, regardless of what political party you belong – but that is how the issues have been spun by our president, politicians, and pundits,” Ian says. “I wouldn’t call myself an activist, though I have marched in a few protests, communicated with my representatives, participated in postcard-writing campaigns, and I make sure I vote in every election. After feeling upset at the constant doom and gloom of the news, I wanted to do something. Vote Save America’s Adopt a State program was a great way to roll up my sleeves and get to work.”
