Unifying • Mobilizing • Empowering the fight for democracy
Spread joy and unity to help defend our democracy.
THE STRATEGY
FIRST: Join our team at Jingles For Democracy
The non-adversarial music videos will uplift hearts while automatically empowering the real-world defense of our democracy. Then the videos lead people back here to sign up with Common Cause and their coalition of pro-democracy organizations fighting and winning in the courts, legislatures, and public movements where it counts the most.
You will receive no more than 2 emails per week from me (Corky Siegel). (opting out is easy, no donations). Each email announces the launch of a new video about democracy that you can click on. The more clicks, the more people will show up here to join this movement. That’s all!
Why Common Cause?
Please sign up now with Common Cause. This is the single place where we can meet to consolidate all our power. We chose Common Cause as our unifying institution (with its 1.5 million members) because they are a leading organization in the coalition of pro-democracy groups, are a well-equipped, effective, nonpartisan watchdog and a major force in winning for our democracy, in courts, legislatures, and public movements, for over 50 years. Common Cause offers many different opportunities for involvement, or you can just stay signed up and be counted.
Engaging with the videos and sharing the JinglesForDemocracy.com link with your friends and networks will bring much needed light to the discourse and in turn can spark an exponential growth leading millions to stand together behind the work to save our democracy, our rights, and our freedoms.

The Midterms?
The growth of this movement now, will give the get out the vote and protect the vote initiatives a giant head start. You can stay in the peaceful oasis of positive action and opt-in for the email notifications or just share the videos on your own - spreading joy and protecting our voices and our votes, now and into the future.
And Who are we?
We are a small but growing community of musicians, but mainly music lovers, and lovers of democracy, creating a movement spearheaded for now by Corky Siegel. The intention is to empower those who are fighting in the trenches to protect our voice—like a Trojan horse of art and music, riding straight into the heart of the battlefield where our freedoms are at risk.
So sign up both at Common Cause and Jingles For Democracy to help turn this into a movement for change.
You are encouraged to join all the pro-democracy groups you can like the ACLU, NAACP, League of Women’s Voters, local and national, but I chose Common Cause back in 2010 for the same reason I chose them this time. Importantly, they work with all the pro-democracy organizations and initiatives.
Disclaimer: No-one on Jingles for Democracy team is a spokesperson for Common Cause nor represents them in any way, though I helped start the new Common Cause Illinois chapter in 2010 and served on the advisory board for 25 years.
