Creating a Campaign on Veeto

The most compelling advocacy is built on authentic personal experiences and expertise. Your campaign should tell a story that connects your audience to the real-world impact of the legislation you're addressing.

Consider how your background uniquely positions you to advocate for or against this bill. Perhaps you're a healthcare worker who has witnessed firsthand the issues this legislation seeks to address, a researcher who can identify critical gaps overlooked in the bill's language, or a startup founder who can explain how new regulations would directly affect your industry.

Share relevant personal anecdotes, professional experiences, or specialized knowledge that makes you a credible and passionate advocate. Your story helps contributors understand not just what the legislation does, but why it matters through the lens of real human experience.

1. Basic Campaign Information

The foundation of your campaign starts with essential information that helps contributors quickly understand your mission and goals. Take time to carefully consider each element:

Relevant Legislation

One bill per campaign

First, identify the specific legislation you're addressing. Search for your target bill by either its number (e.g., AB, SB) or title. This is a required field, as it anchors your campaign to specific policy action.

Project Title

Project titles can be between 10 and 100 characters

Your title is the first impression of your campaign—make it count. Choose a clear and concise description that immediately communicates what you're trying to achieve.

For example, "Support SB-42 for Fair Campaign Financing" or "Bodycam footage helps keep EMS and patients safe during high-risk calls: Oppose SB-691"

Stance

Clearly indicate whether you "Support" or "Oppose" the identified legislation. This required field will be prominently displayed on your campaign page, making your position immediately clear to potential contributors.
