Actions! 4.22.2024-4.28.2024

This is a jam-packed week! And whether you are celebrating the opening day of Trump’s Criminal Trial, holding a Seder, attending one of the many important events on offer — or remembering that the Supreme Court will hear arguments on Thursday about why Trump is above the law — there is something for us all.

And something for us all to do.

Pick an action (make a call, send a text, contact the Supremes!) and keep up the momentum. Together we are strong. Together, we are Indivisible.

Sample posts:

💵  Justice delayed because the justices were paid. #JusticeCantWait

🇺🇸 We will not allow justice delayed to become democracy destroyed. #JusticeCantWait

🕒 May 20th is the deadline for SCOTUS to throw out the immunity claim so Trump finally faces a jury of everyday Americans for his criminal conspiracy to overthrow the will of the voters. #JusticeCantWait

April 25
The Central Valley Matters:
Jane Fonda and Dolores Huerta
Hosted by SwingLeft
Thursday, April 25, 2024
5 - 7 PM Pacific
Virtual event

RSVP

Join us on April 25th when we gather in support of Central Valley Matters’ grassroots groups!

Our featured speakers, Dolores Huerta and Jane Fonda, will discuss “Why the Central Valley Matters." We'll learn how, when people can come together, organize, and take direct action, they can protect their rights.

Many of us take fresh water and clean air for granted, yet thousands of people who live in CD22 don’t have access to clean drinking water, breath dirty air, and the region has highest childhood asthma rates in the nation. Thanks to our contributions, residents there learn they can elect people who will represent their interests and work to improve healthcare, working conditions and the local environment.

Join CVM and meet Jane Fonda and Dolores Huerta on zoom!

Are you thinking about canvassing, but don't feel quite ready? If you've never canvassed before (and even if you're a fellow introvert), or just need a refresher, join the Bay Area Coalition every Tuesday, 7 pm (PST) to talk about what your canvassing day will look like.

CALLS TO MAKE

Democrats must, as AOC says, either be seen to be winning, or caught trying. That’s what our calls are for - to encourage them to try and, hopefully, to win.

To keep fighting for our freedoms. To make that fight consistent with our actions, both at home and abroad.

Let’s make some calls!
