> Dear friend, 
> 
> Can you help us get on the IL ballot for our presidential campaign by signing our petition?  Please read this letter to find out how: 
> 
> Across the state of Illinois, the Party for Socialism and Liberation has been actively involved in all the struggles that affect the people of our state, especially in recent months of the pandemic, helping to produce and distribute PPE to frontline workers, providing groceries to impacted families, and organizing car caravans to demand a cancellation of rents and mortgages for the duration of the pandemic.
> 
> Now, since the uprisings that began in Minneapolis and have spread across the nation, we have been out every day marching, chanting and standing with the people to demand justice for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and all victims of racist police terror.   
> 
> We know that this revolt against racism must continue.  The people right now are demonstrating their great power to bring about real change and to shake the foundations of this racist, capitalist system. 
> 
> Today, we are asking you to help further our political work in Illinois.  A recent injunction has, for the first time, allowed e-signatures to be collected on nominating petitions for the IL presidential race, and with the easing of these undemocratic ballot access laws, we want to put the movement for justice, housing and equality on the Illinois ballot.
> 
> We are campaigning to get longtime labor and immigrant rights activist Gloria La Riva and fighter for Native sovereignty and political prisoner Leonard Peltier on the ballot in Illinois in 2020.  We want to use this campaign to raise the demands of our 10-point program (https://www.larivapeltier2020.org/program <https://www.larivapeltier2020.org/program?e=5d8ed79c072ddbd69a32aefe54447443&utm_source=psl&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=request_for_2020_petitions&n=7&e=2df3a13664f8a0322319b0ddae502747&utm_source=psl&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=larivapetition&n=2>), including an end to police terror, respect for Native sovereignty and treaty rights, guaranteed housing, free healthcare and education for all, and much more.
> 
> Part of our campaign's goal is also to raise Leonard Peltier’s profile so that people know of his freedom struggle, and the struggle to free all political prisoners. You can find more information from his support group, the International Leonard Peltier Defense Committee (WhoisLeonardPeltier.info <http://whoisleonardpeltier.info/>), as well as on our campaign website.
> 
> We are asking for your assistance today! Please help us get more signatures to assure that we can get on the ballot.
