Indivisibles,

It’s debate time. 

Tomorrow, Future President Kamala Harris and insurrectionist Donald Trump
will take the debate stage in our first chance this cycle to watch her mop
the floor with him before she does it again in November. 

One thing we know: Donald Trump will lie. Donald Trump will evade. Donald
Trump will do everything he can to avoid answering direct questions with
policy positions because he knows his policies are widely unpopular with
the American public. But he’ll continue to dance around the truth because
[ [link removed] ]his freedom is on the line. 

VP Harris, on the other hand, is poised to bring her message of joyful
progress to a larger audience -- reminding the country that she has the
policies and the experience to back up the wave of support she is riding
right now. 

The difference between these two candidates couldn’t be clearer and will
be on full display. We can’t wait for everyone else to see just how
prepared Kamala Harris is to lead this country and be reminded how
incompetent and deceitful Trump can be.

Let’s get ready together.

[ [link removed] ]SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: We’re bringing Future Speaker of the House Hakeem
Jeffries to our pre-debate call tomorrow, Tuesday September 10 at 8pm
ET/5pm PT. 

Rep. Jeffries will be joining us to talk about the stakes of the next 56
days, exactly what we can do to win, and just how important it is to make
sure VP Harris and Coach Walz have a Democratic Congress to back them up. 

We’ll wrap up with the future Speaker, and then focus on what we expect
from the debate and how we will ensure a Harris/Walz victory in November.

Tuesday, September 17 at 6pm ET/3pm PT. Wisconsin is a key state in
this year’s electoral map, let’s make sure our turnout is strong

November 5. We’ll make sure to always highlight the next upcoming
phonebank in these to-dos, but if you want to get ahead of the curve
and block off some dates, [ [link removed] ]use this page to register for upcoming
phonebanks, set up your own phonebank, or participate in the many
other ways we have to contact voters this election. 
 2. [ [link removed] ]Join us alongside partner Vote Forward for a virtual letter writing
party on Thursday, September 19 at 4pm ET/1pm PT. We’re writing
letters to voters in key House districts as part of The Big Send -- a
collective effort to send 10 million letters to voters this year. Not

 5. [ [link removed] ]Check out our Project 2025 resources. You asked for more specific
resources on Project 2025, its impact, and how we need to talk about
it to win in November, and we answered. Project 2025 is the most
thorough blueprint we have ever seen from MAGA Republicans on how they
plan to strip away our rights, protections, and freedoms if they
achieve power. But as dangerous as their plan is for the American
people, it is just as damaging to their electability. But only when
people know about it. We have to make sure people understand just how
extreme Project 2025 intends to be, and here’s your literature to do
it.

* [ [link removed] ]Donald Did This -- A guide to how Trump ripped away abortion
access by ending Roe v. Wade and how he’s planning to finish the
job.
* [ [link removed] ]Project 2025 Explained -- An in-depth analysis of the MAGA
playbook

Local Voices, Local Power Round 4 Endorsements

[ [link removed] ]Local Voices, Local Power (LVLP) is our group-driven endorsements
program that puts money and resources into our local groups’ hands to
power wins for Democratic champions all across the country, up and down
the ballot. 

Check out our final round of candidates, the groups who endorsed them, and
a quick summation of why they endorsed in their own words:

[ [link removed] ]Muncie Resists endorses Sue Errington for Indiana State House District
34

Sue Errington is endorsed by [ [link removed] ]Muncie Resists for Indiana State House
District 34. Sue Errington has been tireless in her advocacy for Muncie
residents and all Hoosiers. She has served us well in the State House
since 2012. Her values and policy stances align well with Muncie Resists'
values. She is an advocate for reproductive rights, having worked for
Planned Parenthood before beginning her career in electoral politics. She
is a former teacher and a strong advocate for public education. She has
fought against gerrymandering and for fair redistricting. She is a strong
advocate for climate, and she has fought for solar in Delaware County. She
also worked to secure legislation to support our local land bank. Her
leadership in the state house has been productive in pushing policies for
the people of Muncie and prioritizing progressive legislation in a
legislature that sees little progressive progress elsewhere.

[ [link removed] ]Firelands Indivisible endorses Marcy Kaptur for OH-09

Marcy Kaptur is endorsed by [ mailto:[email protected] ]Firelands Indivisible for Ohio’s 9th
congressional district. Marcy Kaptur is the longest-serving woman in the
US House of Representatives, having served Ohio since 1983. We are honored
to support her. Rep. Kaptur has a truly admirable record of
accomplishments. In contrast, her opponent Derek Merrin (OH House-42), has
a record of being either ineffective or harmful as a legislator. Marcy
Kaptur has worked across party lines to promote the creation of jobs,
economic growth, vital infrastructure, and support for veterans and our
military. She advocates for economic and health security, striving to
create a level playing field for all. Marcy Kaptur is known as a "Fighter
for Working Families."

[ [link removed] ]Indivisible NWI endorses Frank Mrvan for IN-01

Frank Mrvan is endorsed by [ [link removed] ]Indivisible NWI for Indiana’s 1st
congressional district. Congressman Mrvan has been a champion for the
people of Northwest Indiana and the entire country. He is one of only two
Democratic US Congress members from Indiana. He has enabled our area of
the state to be one of the few progressive districts, championing
progressive causes and working tirelessly to combat backward legislation
in the US House of Representatives. He gets things done. He brings back
funding and countless new projects to our state and especially to
Northwest Indiana.  A loss of this office to the Republicans would have
consequences for us all. He has a strong moral compass, a fantastic work
ethic, he can (and does) work across the aisle to get things done, and he
is hugely responsive and approachable. He has been a great friend to
Indivisible NWI -- always keeping us abreast of new legislation and
projects coming to our district.

 

These candidates reflect our local groups’ commitment to finding and
supporting candidates who reflect a Democratic ideal that will drive the
sorts of change we desperately need. Whether that’s enshrining
reproductive freedoms on the federal level, or fighting for the dignity of
all people across a single city, we are looking for true Democratic
fighters who will defend democracy and champion the will of the people
come November.

Demand Your Members of Congress Call For A Ceasefire

**Content Warning: Talk about the current humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Jump to the line break if you need to avoid this topic.**

 

An estimated 750,000 [ [link removed] ]Israeli citizens took to the streets on Saturday
protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s failure to secure the return of hostages
and a ceasefire. This follows months of internal protests in Israel and
thousands of protesters taking to the streets last week after the recovery
of six more hostages found dead in Gaza. 

Even his own citizens realize that Netanyahu’s government is only
succeeding at prolonging the bloodshed. 

Unfortunately, while the push to get Netanyahu to actually work toward a
ceasefire continues to play out, [ [link removed] ]an American citizen was killed by IDF
forces while protesting in the West Bank -- on the same day a 13-year-old
Palestinian girl was also killed.

This conflict in Gaza, and increasingly spreading to the West Bank,
continues to claim the lives of innocent people. Officially, over 40,000
Palestinians (including over 16,000 children) have been killed since Oct
7th. It is past time for elected leaders on all sides to bring it to an
end.

Congress must use every tool at its disposal to secure a ceasefire, the
return of all remaining hostages, and the free administration of
humanitarian aid. The strongest tool they have is withholding offensive
weaponry from Netanyahu’s government, and we must employ that pressure. 

Call your representative and tell them we need a ceasefire today.
