Next Thursday, June 6, Mobile Commons will be presenting Mobile Commons Advocacy at the Personal Democracy Forum here in New York City. PDF explores the ever-widening intersection between technology and politics, and brings together some of the biggest thinkers in each of those spheres to pow-wow about the future of our society. Representatives from Upworthy, Mozilla, ioby, and GitHub are among the speakers – as are Harper Reed, the CTO of Obama’s reelection campaign and Nancy Lublin, CEO of DoSomething.org.
We liked the conference so much, we decided to sponsor it!
We’re particularly excited to present Mobile Commons Advocacy to the PDF audience, because MCA’s very purpose is to use technology to make political advocacy easy. Mobile Commons Advocacy immediately connects callers with their Congressional representatives, allowing an organization’s supporters to influence their Senators’ opinions on key issues.
Mobile Commons Advocacy’s mission dovetails with the theme of this year’s PDF conference, “Think Bigger.” The theme is in honor of the late Aaron Schwartz, who asked “Why not harness the power of the Internet to work on the larger-scale problems?” MCA gives ordinary Americans the power to have their voices heard on some of today’s biggest moral and political issues, such as immigration, gun control, marriage equality, the environment, and social security, to name just a few. By driving targeted groups of people to the place where they will have the biggest effect, MCA helps organizations have a concrete impact on legislation.
