The Road to November: Join Southwest Washington’s GOTV Events!

The 2026 midterm election is fast approaching, and there is still plenty of time from Sierra Club Members to make a difference in Southwest Washington. From knocking on doors and connecting with neighbors to making signs and celebrating with fellow members, there are many ways to help Get Out the Vote (GOTV) and build momentum for climate champions across our region.

The decisions made by our elected leaders shape the future of salmon and orcas, the health of our public lands and waters, and the well-being of our communities. This fall, we have an opportunity to help elect climate champions who will stand up for a healthier, more sustainable future.

Join Sierra Club Washington for one or more of our upcoming GOTV events! Whether you are a seasoned volunteer or getting involved for the first time, we would love to have you on the team.

Knock Doors for Marie Gluesenkamp Perez

Southwest Washington’s 3rd Congressional District is shaping up to be a highly competitive race this November. With control of Congress at stake, this is an important opportunity to connect with voters and build support for Representative Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (MGP).

Join Sierra Club volunteers and fellow supporters as we hit the doors in Vancouver. Conversations with neighbors can make a real difference, helping voters learn about the election and encouraging them to participate.

Sign up for the WA03 volunteer weekend!

Want to make a weekend of supporting climate champions in Southwest Washington? We’re inviting Sierra Club members and state leaders to join us in the 3rd Congressional District for a weekend of grassroots organizing, community building, and voter outreach.

We’ll kick things off Friday evening at Ballots & Boos, connecting with fellow volunteers and getting ready for the weekend ahead.

On Saturday morning, we’ll head out to Canvass for Marie Gluesenkamp Perez in Vancouver. After knocking doors, we’ll gather for a Sierra Club lunch before heading to another special event in the early evening. More details about that event are coming soon!

On Sunday, we’ll wrap up the weekend with breakfast before everyone heads home.

Whether you can join us for the entire weekend or only for part of it, we’d love to have you there. This is a great opportunity to connect with Sierra Club members from across Washington, meet fellow advocates, and help build grassroots momentum for candidates committed to protecting our climate, public lands, clean water, and communities.

Make Ripples This Fall!

Every conversation, every volunteer shift, and every reminder to vote can help build a stronger, healthier future for Southwest Washington. You don’t have to be an experienced organizer to get involved. Bring your enthusiasm, invite a friend, and find an event that works for you.

Beyond joining an event, there are plenty of ways to help make a difference:

  • Make your voting plan. Research your ballot, complete it, and return it before the deadline.
  • Encourage friends and family to vote. Share your voting plans with family, friends, and neighbors.
  • Spread the word. Share these events with your community and invite others to get involved.
  • Stay connected. Join the Sierra Club community in Southwest Washington and help build grassroots power beyond Election Day.

Our lands, waters, salmon, and communities deserve leaders who will fight for their future. Let’s make every conversation count and finish this election season strong!

Ready to get involved? Choose an event above, sign up, and join us on the road to November.

Together, our ripples can create a tidal wave of action across Southwest Washington!
