Indivisibles, 

It’s been an eventful two weeks since we last sent out our Newsletter.
Donald Trump vowed to never give up on the fight to roll back the ACA
([ [link removed] ]here’s an in-depth look at our winning history with the Affordable
Care Act (ACA) from our own Sarah Dohl) and last Friday, George Santos was
expelled from the House after his web of lies finally came home to roost
([ [link removed] ]read more about that and our plans for the other 17 Unrepresentatives
here). 

It’s important to remember that both of these men have been supported by
the Republican Party through lies, deception, and insurrection. The only
reason Republicans finally agreed to expel Santos was because, following a
year of compounding instances of impropriety, the [ [link removed] ]House Ethics
Committee released their report concluding that Santos, “sought to
fraudulently exploit every aspect of his House candidacy for his own
personal financial profit.”

Even still, 116 Republicans voted against expelling Santos. 

Whether it’s outright fraud, insurrection, or the repeal of health
insurance for over 40 million Americans, Republicans will always choose
the party over the people. That is why it is so important that we get
ahead of the curve organizing for 2024. 

Republicans, and their supporters, will back every type of treachery as
long as it means they maintain their hold on power. We do things
differently (better) -- we’re honest about the things we can and will
deliver for the American people if we win a true trifecta. 

But, the good news is that the people are behind us -- they just need to
know it! 

When the people get the honest truth about what Democrats can and have
delivered on, they support the candidates. It’s on us to make sure they
hear that message. 

If you’re ready to be a part of those efforts, [ [link removed] ]sign up to be all in to
defeat Trump, and be one of the first to hit the ground to talk to voters
when we roll out critical tools over the next several weeks and into the
new year!

[ [link removed] ]All in to Defeat Trump >>

With that, here are your weekly to-dos:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Your 5 weekly to-dos 

 1. [ [link removed] ]Register for our final National Campaigns Call of 2023 this
Thursday, December 7 at 8pm ET/5pm PT. Join activists across the
country as we celebrate the incredible accomplishments of Indivisibles
over the past year and take a look ahead to the exciting campaigns and
strategic plans for 2024. 
 2. [ [link removed] ]Write a letter to the editor (LTE) warning your community that No
Labels is a threat to our democracy. No Labels is planning to run a
spoiler candidate in the 2024 presidential election in order to deny
any candidate the 270 electoral votes needed for election. That would
send the decision about our next president to the MAGA-controlled
House of Representatives and clear the way for a second Trump
presidency. Make sure your community knows just how dangerous No
Labels’ plan would be for our democracy.
 3. [ [link removed] ]If you have a Republican Member of Congress (MoC), write an LTE
demanding that they denounce Trump’s threats to the Affordable Care
Act. In 2017, our collective efforts, town halls, and constituent
pressure made the difference in ensuring the ACA was here to stay.
With Trump, once again, putting our health care in his sights, make
sure your representatives know that they must publicly oppose taking
away healthcare from millions of Americans.
 4. [ [link removed] ]If you have a Democratic MoC, write an LTE about Trump’s threat to
repeal the ACA. We need to make sure every American knows that he’s
planning to strip away healthcare from millions of people. This is a
direct attack on the health and safety of the people alongside what
would have a devastating impact on our economy. Make sure your
community knows what’s at stake next November.
 5. [ [link removed] ]Write an LTE on Trump’s dangerous positions on abortion. Trump is
once again trying to lie to the American people and position himself
as moderate on abortion. Let’s be clear -- Trump is no moderate. It
was his SCOTUS nominations that sealed the deal on overturning Roe, he
can’t go back now and scrub his legacy for votes now that he knows
abortion is one of the most mobilizing issues of our time. We know
where he stands, make sure your neighbors do too.



P.S. If you've completed your weekly to-do's and are looking for more ways
to support this movement, [ [link removed] ]consider making a donation today. Your
contribution will help keep our call pages up and running, fund the tools
we use to mobilize volunteers, and continue all the work we're doing this
year.

2024 Indivisible Endorsements Guide

[ [link removed] ]Check out the 2024 Indivisible Endorsements Guide.

[ [link removed] ]Endorsements Guide >>

The 2024 elections are just around the corner!

In addition to doing the essential work of rooting out MAGA extremists at
every level of government, we have the opportunity to elect the strongest
Democrats to champion progressive priorities and defend progressive
values. Since 2018, our movement has been doing just that: building power
by helping to elect the next generation of bold leaders at every level of
government. Indivisible groups across the country have pushed candidates
on issues that matter, contacted thousands of voters, and shown that the
power of our movement is impossible to ignore.

If your group is considering getting involved in 2024 elections, one of
the most powerful ways you can have an impact is by [ [link removed] ]making
endorsements. We know elections can be intimidating! We also know that an
endorsement, done correctly, is one of the most powerful tools to create
change. This guide demystifies the process with advice on how best to
engage in both primary and general elections.

Your Opinion Needed: Mehdi Hasan and MSNBC

For the last three years, MSNBC journalist Mehdi Hasan has passionately
hosted The Mehdi Hasan Show and used his platform to fearlessly speak
truth to power. He’s covered the most pressing issues our network cares
about, and he takes seriously the existential threat against our democracy
from Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans. 

Last week, MSNBC suddenly announced that he would no longer be hosting his
own show -- and everyone from Members of Congress to prominent media
leaders to actor Mark Hamill spoke out in praise of his talents. [ [link removed] ]As
Ezra wrote on Threads, “Mehdi's a real journalist - and a healthy
democracy needs more journalists like him with big platforms.” 

We know that Indivisibles care about how media outlets report the news and
who gets to have a platform, and we want to understand how you feel about
this decision. Weigh in now through our survey -- do you follow Mehdi
Hasan’s journalism, whether on MSNBC, Peacock or social media?

[ [link removed] ]Yes - I trust Mehdi

[ [link removed] ]No - I’m not familiar with Mehdi

Call for a Humanitarian Ceasefire

**Content Warning: Talk about the current Israel/Palestinian conflict.
Jump to the line break if you need to avoid this topic.**

The temporary humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza ended on Friday, closing what
was relatively the safest chapter in a brutal crisis that began when Hamas
murdered over 1400 Israeli, American, and foreign citizens and took more
than 200 hostages on October 7. The ceasefire marked the largest exchange
of hostages since the crisis began, and we continue to call for the
immediate release of all hostages while condemning Hamas’ brutal October 7
attacks. 

With the end of the ceasefire, Israel now continues its campaign which
Netanyahu claims is to eliminate Hamas, but which has claimed over 15,000
Palestinian lives including at least 6,600 children. 

We must, as a civilized nation, be clear about one thing: The price of the
elimination of Hamas cannot continue to be thousands of murdered children.
Those children have no choice in where they live or whether they can
escape and are fully and unquestionably victims of this crisis. 

As the bombardment resumes, over [ [link removed] ]60 Members of Congress have called
for a ceasefire or cessation of hostilities. They believe that the way to
sustained peace cannot be paved by indiscriminate bombing and that
[ [link removed] ]driving Palestinians from one “safe” zone to another while restricting
aid and destroying infrastructure is unsustainable. 

We need more Members of Congress to join them. Make a call and send an
email today:

* [ [link removed] ]Call your representative and urge them to call for a humanitarian
ceasefire publicly and to use their position to push for an end to
hostilities, to deliver urgently needed humanitarian assistance, and
to ensure the hostages are released.
* [ [link removed] ]Call both your senators now and ask them to do the same.
* [ [link removed] ]Email your MoCs and tell them that the bombing has to stop. This
crisis is a challenge to our humanity. It is hard to witness brutal
acts of violence and not believe that violent retaliation is the only
response. But we must eschew those instincts and find a pathway to
peace.
