Indivisibles,
With only 29 days until the election, the future of our democracy teeters
on a razor’s edge. As early voting begins across the nation -- with 9
states already underway -- we find ourselves caught in a spiral of
constant news-watching and poll-checking, fueled by the burning question:
Will we win??? The truth is -- we don't know!
As Leah wrote over the weekend: “We’re tantalizingly close to a win that
can deliver a Harris presidency and the Democratic majorities needed to
enshrine reproductive freedom, democracy reform and voting rights, and a
bold economic agenda to help working families…
And we’re also terrifyingly close to a loss that puts the architects of
Project 2025 in office and us back in a desperate fight for our
democracy.”
We are faced with a clear choice, not just between candidates, but between
two diverging paths for our nation. And let's be unequivocal -- the
outcome hinges not on fate, but on the effort each of us is willing to put
in.
Now is not the time for hesitation or doubt. It’s time for work.
So let’s make these final weeks count. Whether it's making calls, texting
voters, or knocking on doors, your participation can -- and will -- make
the difference.
With that, read on for your weekly to-dos:

Preventing Another January 6th
[ [link removed] ]Register for our National Call featuring Rep. Jamie Raskin, our own
Ezra Levin, and the creators of The Sixth tomorrow, October 8 at 8pm
ET/5pm PT. We’re opening up our final Majority Over MAGA Action Team call
to the full Indivisible network because we think this is a panel you won’t
want to miss. January 6th was a modern tragedy and a dire showing of the
lengths to which MAGA extremists will stretch to hijack our democracy.
Hear from Rep. Jamie Raskin -- who was in the Capitol during the attempted
insurrection -- alongside Ezra Levin and the powerhouse duo behind The
Sixth documentary, filmmakers Andrea Nix Fine and Sean Fine. Join us

A Message from Indivisible's Leah Greenberg on the One-Year Anniversary of the
October 7th Attack
**Content Warning: Talk about the current humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Jump to the line break if you need to avoid this topic.**
“Today, we mourn the Israeli, American, and other lives taken in Hamas’
horrific attack of October 7th, and stand with the victims -- those who
lost their lives, lost family, were taken hostage and have been killed
since, and those who remain in captivity. We join with the families of
remaining hostages in calling for their immediate release and for a
ceasefire deal that would bring them home. We recognize the pain of this
day for our Jewish community and members, compounded by the rise in
antisemitism around the world, and hold in our hearts everyone who is
grieving for family or friends lost or harmed.
In the year since October 7th, the Netanyahu government’s military
response has taken an horrendous toll on Gaza’s people, with tens of
thousands of civilians killed, overwhelming numbers of families displaced,
large-scale risk of starvation, and suffering on an almost unfathomable
scale. Again, a ceasefire and step back from the regional escalation
currently underway is desperately needed. And we commit ourselves to
linking arms with our Muslim and Arab community members to oppose the
dangerous rise of Islamophobia and anti-Arab bigotry, both in the US and
globally.
None of this was inevitable. The path to safety and dignity for Israelis
and Palestinians alike depends on a different course.
The souls lost in the past year deserve a justice that political
leadership has not provided. Extremists on both sides of this conflict
have put their political agendas ahead of innocent lives. Israeli Prime
Minister Netanyahu has repeatedly undermined efforts to chart a path for
peace and security for everyone in the region -- instead pursuing a brutal
military campaign in Gaza that indiscriminately kills Palestinian
civilians, including children, refugees, and hospital patients. While
families of Israeli hostages beg him to prioritize the return of their
loved ones, he instead puts his own political goals first.
Netanyahu’s destructive path has unfortunately received continued support
and legitimization from the US government, in the form of diplomatic
efforts at the UN and through the direct provision and sale of ammunition,
bombs, and other military supplies. While humanitarian aid is restricted
by Israeli military operations, the weapons continue to flow unabated.
This falls short of our human rights obligations, and pushes further into
the future the day when everyone in Israel, Palestine and the entire
region can live in safety, security, and dignity.
The October 7th of today is also a day of mourning. A different path has
been available and can still be taken. Indivisible continues to urge the
Biden administration to use all the tools and leverage at their disposal
to put an immediate end to the bloodshed and finally begin working towards
peace.”

Activist Care Circle: Caring for You So You Can Care for Others
Even though we are experiencing positive momentum, activists still carry a
heavy emotional load. We’ve got important work to do, and people are
counting on us. Taking care of ourselves must be a priority. We can’t
fight for our future if we have no fight left in us.
Give the movement, this election, your family, and most importantly YOU,
your best. [ [link removed] ]Join us on October 10 at 7:30pm ET/4:30pm PT and create a
