BARS FOR ILLINOIS

This is an in-person event. Please bring a book of postcard stamps (20) or $12 to cover postage!

Since 2019, Swing Left Chicago volunteers have written tens of thousands of letters to voters—and we’re not stopping now. The key to defeating the GOP is voter turnout, and postcard writing is one of the most effective ways to boost turnout among likely Democratic voters.

Join us to get a head start on postcards for the 2026 election! We’ll write motivating messages, giving us plenty of time to make a big impact in key Senate races. We'll have tables set up in the front room at the brewery.

What to bring: Yourself (and friends!), plus a book of stamps or $12 (Cash, Cash App, Venmo, Credit Card, or if you must BTC). We provide the postcards, pens, blurbs, and addresses. No experience? No problem! We’ll show you everything you need to know.

Bonus: Mondays happen to be is/was brewing's Skee Ball league. Come out, write some letters in the front, roll some skee ball in the back, and meet new friends along the way.

We ask that attendees purchase something to eat or drink to thank our generous hosts (and don’t forget to tip your server!). Questions or accessibility needs? Email swingleftchicago@gmail.com.
