Our Role in the Midterms: Building Power through Relationships

When: 8 p.m. ET Tuesday, May 12

The 2026 election cycle is in full swing – and the FCNL team is prepared to empower you to act. Grassroots advocates must seize the opportunity to engage candidates running for office, build relationships, and hold elected leaders accountable. 

Congress also still has work to do. We continue to push Congress to reject more funds for the illegal war on Iran. This is no time to slow down our advocacy, it is actually the ideal time to speak with candidates. 

Join us for a virtual call to action on Tuesday, May 12, at 8:00 p.m. ET! Even if you cannot join, register to receive the recording and follow-up resources. 

During our conversation, we will: 

  • Share how to make the most of this election season by offering best practices, tips, and resources to effectively engage and build lasting relationships with candidates running for office; 
  • Hear inspiring stories about FCNL’s recent Friends Changemaker Weekend lobbying conference; 
  • Hear the latest from our lobbyists about what’s happening inside the halls of Congress and how you can take meaningful action.
