Do you think CBS should air Tim Tebow's anti-choice ad during the Super Bowl?
Yes. As long as both sides have equal time.
No. CBS promised that it wouldn't air "advocacy ads" of any kind.
I don't care. Who's Tim Tebow?

Has your college campus recently made condoms more difficult to access?

Is your school board making a decision about what sex education curriculum will be taught in your schools?

Did your local paper run an op-ed against same-sex marriage?

Is your state legislature considering legislation that limits access to abortion?

If so, you find yourself in a position where you need to mobilize people to act quickly. However, you might not have a database of activists at your fingertips, or have the resources to create an easy form for people to act.

But that's where Amplify comes in!

Amplify is proud to offer our new feature, the Create Your Own Action Alert. All you need to do is fill out our online form providing us with the target(s) contact information, a draft of the Alert Email, and the Letter to the Target. We enter it into our system, and then send you an email with a link to send out (here's what the alerts look like). We can also send the alert out to Advocates for Youth's ginormous youth activist network in your area if you’d like us to. It’s as simple as that!

I encourage everyone to check out this feature and see if you can use it to mobilize people to act in your own community. You no longer have to wait for organizations to do the work that is needed... you can just do it yourself!
