The Progressive International hosts #YourElectionOurLives

Your Election, Our Lives! On the planetary impact of the US election.

From Mexico to Palestine, the US election will have an impact far beyond its borders. This is why the Progressive International (PI) launched a campaign called #YourElectionOurLives that empowered their members to share their experiences about how the US elections impacts their lives. Participants recorded short videos explaining how the US elections will impact theirs lives as well as those of their loved ones.

Now, the PI brings together MPs & activists from around the world to discuss the planetary impact of this historic election.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR: #YourElectionOurLives will be held on 11 November.

It’s like the whole country is holding their breath, waiting to see what happens, knowing that the fate of their loved ones rests on the choices made a few thousand Americans in a couple of counties in Pennsylvania.”

The incredible line-up for next Wednesday’s event will include:

  • Tatiana Clouthier, Diputada Federal, Mexico
  • Guillaume Long, Former Foreign Minister, Ecuador
  • Dr. Yara Hawari, writer and activist in the Palestinian feminist movement Tal3at
  • Ammar Ali Jan, Haqooq-e-Khalq Movement, Pakistan
