On June 2, Governor JB Pritzker will join Democrats Abroad for an energizing conversation about what it takes to build a future that truly works for everyone. In this conversation, we will discuss how values‑driven governance can deliver real results, strengthen democratic institutions, and expand economic and social opportunity.
He’ll also reflect on what these fights mean for Americans abroad in a pivotal election year — and how overseas voters can help shape the future.

Yes, there IS something you can do!
We need your help to reach our members...
You can only vote once, but calling:
- multiplies your vote and amplifies your voice
- helps and empowers overseas voters to cast their one vote
- helps make the USA a truly participatory democracy
We’ve organised two phonebanking training sessions for DA members in Scotland so they can get involved with global Democrats Abroad campaigns in 2026. In 2024, DA callers made 350,000+ calls and sent 300,000+ texts. In 2026, many country committees will be calling their own members in Jan-May, and then we will have global campaigns for the midterms in August-November. These calls make a difference, so please join us in reaching out to as many voters as possible!
WHEN: Wednesday, 6 May at 7:00 pm
WHERE: Virtual event. Please RSVP to receive link.
