Talking Points:

• For years, people have been working to Stop Cop City. Now, over 116,000 people demanded Cop City be put on the ballot - DOUBLE what was required. We elected our Senators and City Council and their job is to listen to their constituents. They represent us.

• Put Cop City on the ballot, now. No more tricks or games.

• The 67 million taxpayer dollars (our money!) going to Cop City should be invested in schools, housing, resources, and in making Atlanta stronger. How would you rather see $67 million invested in Atlanta? What do you need in your neighborhood?

• It’s our electeds’ job to stand up for the people they represent, even when it’s not politically convenient.

• The Mayor has used city resources, paid for by taxpayer dollars, to continously interfere in the people’s right to be heard. From fighting it in court to misleading memos and press statements, he's damaged the trust in City Hall, democracy, and hurt Georgians.

• If the City Council chooses to ignore over 116,000 people that they represent, it will forever break the trust that Atlanta has in its leadership. Already, so many people do not have faith in our leadership — this would do irreparable harm.

• Collecting these signatures was not easy! Organizers were out in heat, storms, and through the summer. This was hard. Honor that work.

• Talk about your experiences canvassing! Tell stories about voters you personally talked to, and why canvassing was important to you.

• Talk about the number of volunteers in your area that you know and worked with! If it was your first time canvassing, talk about what drew you to canvass and get involved.
