Phone2Action

Advocacy

Phone2Action is an advocacy tool that houses legislative advocates in a database and gives you the capability to reach out to your supporters via one-way SMS. Advocates can reach their lawmakers via email, Facebook, Twitter, and patch-thru phone calls. The platform also includes a suite of GOTV tools and a new emailer to email your supporters.

Problem it Solves

How can I engage my advocates to take action on important legislative issues while making their experience as easy as possible?

Use Case

The director of a ballot initiative wants to collect signatures online and via SMS. Supporters can join by signing the online Phone2Action landing page or text “XXX” to a 5 digit number and are connected via SMS to the petition/campaign link.

Biggest Drawback

Phone2Action does not sync to VAN and is not a Field Organizing tool. As with other texting platforms, as your volume of texts increases, so does the cost. Since they do not have publicly available pricing materials, the price may be out of reach for some campaigns.

Does it Sync with NGPVAN?

No.

Republicans have spent decades cultivating talent and investing for the long run, and right now we’re paying the price. Republicans control 30 state legislatures, 28 governors mansions, and are just a few seats away from regaining control of Congress. Together with an activist Supreme Court, they’re enacting policies that turn back progress on everything from abortion to voting rights to climate change. 

Arena is building a new generation of political leaders who will lead the fight to save our democracy and build progressive power for the long run. It’s going to take all of us to make change. Join us in this work.
