Friend -- We haven't heard from you yet! Will you fill out our
poll and help direct Courage California's next steps?

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

Friend,

In just a week, Donald Trump has issued 37 executive orders spanning
everything from abortion to federal grant funding to LGBTQ+
populations.(1)

Some he has already rescinded. Some have been blocked by the courts. The
chaos is purposeful -- Trump is hoping to overwhelm us so we are caught in
the whirlwind and can't fight back.

We refuse to let Trump direct the narrative. We are not backing down! We
are a grassroots organization, and we are only as strong as our members
and their commitment to the cause. So we have a few important questions to
ask you in this pivotal moment.

right now? Please take five minutes to fill out our Courage California
member survey!

We can't let the Trump tornado take our eyes off our ultimate goal -- a
more just and equitable California for all.

California is by far the wealthiest state in the nation, and we have led
on many first-of-the-nation policies to make California a sanctuary for
immigrants, reduce carbon emissions, and increase pay and expand rights
for workers. We can -- and must -- do amazing things, even with Trump in
the White House.

But it’s going to take us raising our voices above the billionaires
running the White House. It's going to take us fighting their selfish
agenda to raid the programs we all depend on in order to enrich
themselves. It's going to take us focusing on the issues we care about the
most and rising above the noise.

Thank you for being with us.

–Irene, along with Annie, Angela, Isidra, Cecilia, Jen, and Lindsay (the
Courage team)
