Indivisibles,
It’s a beautiful week to flip the senate: [ [link removed] ]join us for our third
Windivisible Week of Action!
[ [link removed] ][IMG]
We’re entering the most critical period of this election with a whole new
set of challenges -- which is why we can’t afford to slow down. As if we
needed another reason to stay vigilant, Trump and his enablers in the
Senate are going forward with confirming a conservative to replace Justice
Ginsburg on the Supreme Court with just 36 days before the election. It
doesn’t matter that Amy Coney Barrett is the nominee, this whole process
flies in the face of RBG’s wishes and the will of the American people.
That’s why we’re mobilizing to remind our elected officials that, at the
end of the day, we have the power to hold them accountable at the polls.
All week, Indivisibles will make calls, send texts, and write letters to
make sure people are prepared and informed to cast their votes. We know
voters will be paying attention this week -- between the fight for SCOTUS,
[ [link removed] ]news about Trump’s strategic tax avoidance, and the first presidential
debate tomorrow -- so we’re ready to capture this energy to help drive
voter turnout. If you’re ready to get involved in all our Windivisible
actions this week, [ [link removed] ]sign up for a phonebanking shift to start making
calls and lean on other Indivisibles by [ [link removed] ]joining an event (virtual or
socially distanced) near you.
It’s a busy week, so let’s jump straight into your weekly to-dos:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your weekly to-dos
1. [ [link removed] ]Call your Senators and demand that they refuse to confirm any new
Supreme Court Justices until we have a new president. Trump and Mitch
McConnell didn’t miss a beat when they said they would rush to confirm
Amy Coney Barrett -- we have no time to waste. We need to call every
day until we win. Watch our [ [link removed] ]Emergency National Activist Call to get
some insight into our strategy for blocking her confirmation.
2. [ [link removed] ]Click here for all of the actions you can take right now to save
SCOTUS. Find all the actions you can take right now here on our Save
SCOTUS hub.
3. [ [link removed] ]Watch this video to learn how to get started with phonebanking. We
recorded this training to help you navigate phonebanking so you can
start making calls this week.
4. [ [link removed] ]Sign up for a Windivisible phonebanking shift before our National
Phonebank Day of Action on Sunday, October 4. Phonebanking is the
easier way to talk to voters in key states to make sure they know
what’s at stake this election and how they can join our movement.
5. [ [link removed] ]Find more ways to make an impact on the outcome of the election by
taking a look at this list of action items. We made this list when we
still had 50 days to go before Election Day. Now, with just 36 days
before November 3, make sure you and the people you care about are
doing everything you can to send Trump and his friends in the Senate
packing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
2020 Update
Tomorrow night, Joe Biden will take the stage as the Democratic nominee
for president in a head-to-head debate with Trump. We already know Trump
will be lying and deflecting blame all night, which is why [ [link removed] ]Biden needs
our support more than ever. Trump might think he can keep busy hurling
insults at Democrats, we’ll be listening closely to how he answers
questions about his failed leadership on COVID-19, racial justice and the
economy.
During the debate, Trump will say and do everything he can to try to
distract us from his failures. He’ll spend time talking up how his Supreme
Court nominee, Amy Coney Barrett, will overturn the Affordable Care Act,
but will forget to mention that he has no plan to replace coverage for
millions of Americans and their families during a pandemic. More likely
than not, he will even use this opportunity to bash the legitimacy of our
elections, all while sabotaging the Postal Service and lining the pockets
of corporations who want to privatize it.
We’re asking you to take action this week because it’s critical for voters
to know just how much is at stake in this election. We’re taking to social
media to show our support for Biden before the debate by flooding Twitter
from 5 pm to 8 pm ET -- [ [link removed] ]use this form to join us on Twitter! Once
you’ve tweeted, we encourage you to [ [link removed] ]phonebank with friends or with
other Indivisibles before and after the debate by joining any one of the
over 280 events on our map. To keep up the fun, invite this same group to
a virtual debate watch party tomorrow night at 9 pm ET with the Washington
Post livestream open in one tab and Zoom in another!

Defend RBG's Legacy on the Supreme Court
We can’t let Trump build a decades-long ultra-conservative majority on the
Supreme Court. So now we’re working nonstop to stop the Senate from
confirming Amy Coney Barrett and to elect a president and senators who
will protect the integrity of the judiciary.
We already needed to raise over $1.4 million to fund our election plans,
and now we’re pouring resources into a historic Supreme Court battle: we
added $285,000 to expand our peer-to-peer texting program, $65,000 in
direct support to candidates, and an extra $20,000 spend on ads last week
alone -- not to mention hundreds of hours of staff time. We rely on
grassroots support to fund our work: [ [link removed] ]donate $10 today to fund all the
resources we need to win in November, protect the Supreme Court and
democracy, and support all our work.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
May Her Memory Be a Revolution
[ [link removed] ][IMG]
The last week has been an absolute whirlwind but we’re so inspired by how
quickly Indivisibles jumped into action to honor RBG’s legacy. As we kick
off our Week of Action, we’re motivated by the initiative of Indivisibles
in Wisconsin, who not only made calls to help us beat Trump and Save
SCOTUS but also found time to make some pretty effective signs. Thanks for
everything you do, we're excited to see what you get up to this week.
Let's get to work!
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
