It's easy to celebrate those on the front lines. Those willing and able to speak in front of hundreds, sometimes thousands. Those capable gitterdone types. We applaud and support their work always, don’t we?

We also must celebrate those in the back. The people who have anxieties or time constraints that keep them from being the “leader.” They are quietly calling Congress, having tough conversations with friends and family, addressing local Dem issues.

They are writing #PostcardsToVoters, often alone, spending their own cash to support elections in locations far from their home. They may not be organizing or giving speeches, but they are just as important, just as inspiring.

Every one of us helps make a difference, don’t we? No amount of words or visuals matter if they don’t inspire people to take action. To all who’ve been killing the activism please know you are seen. You do it, oh so quietly, but your collective actions create a roaring thunder.

I am so proud to be part of #PostcardstoVoters. I hope more #Democrats #Progressives #FairElections #FactsMatter #GunReform #SharpieWarriors #ImmigrationReform will join us. I know you’re out there.
