A quick preview of the core issues we’re planning to fight for next year and how you can be a part of that fight right now Indivisibles,
2021 is fast approaching -- and with it, the chance to win so many of the progressive priorities we’ve been building toward for four years. Today, we want to give you a quick preview of the core issues we’re planning to fight for next year and how you can be a part of that fight right now (spoiler: one big way is to give to help us prepare for all this work).
We have five main issues we’re expecting to focus on in 2021:
- Democracy reform. Unrigging our democracy is our top priority next year -- not only is it the key to building a government that’s responsive and representative, but it’s also a crucial prerequisite for permanent wins on everything else we care about.
- Economic justice. Between growing wealth inequality, a pandemic-accelerated unemployment crisis, and a long list of policies that serve to line the pockets of the wealthy white elite at the expense of everyone else, it’s time to demand an economy that works for the people.
- Climate. We don’t have time to waste to combat climate change -- we need bold, transformative policies that will reimagine everything from energy sources to transportation and will protect communities, especially immigrant, low-income, and communities of color, from the worst effects of the climate crisis.
- Health care. We’ve been fending off attacks on the Affordable Care Act since our earliest days -- and the COVID-19 pandemic has made it clearer than ever that access to affordable, equitable health care is key to a justice-oriented society that empowers vulnerable communities.
- Immigration. The anti-immigrant nativism that’s gripping much of our politics must be stopped, and we’re committed to winning relief and rejecting efforts to further entrench our punitive enforcement system.
Through all these issues runs a connecting thread of racial justice -- which we’re committed to recognizing and prioritizing as we develop our action plans throughout the year. And of course, though these are our core priorities, we’ll be responding to new developments and policy proposals as they come along as well.
These are issues that Indivisible groups have repeatedly said they want to prioritize. But just like we can’t do any of this work without you, we also can’t fund it without you -- click here to make a $10 gift to make this and all our work possible.
We’re hard at work building out what our plans look like on all these advocacy issues, but here’s what we know right now:
- Administrative advocacy will be a big part of our strategy -- we know none of our fights will come easy, and we’re going to need to make sure the Biden administration pulls every lever they’ve got to undo the damage of the last four years and build something better.
- Our digital organizing efforts will continue to be crucial -- with the uncertainty of a pandemic still over our heads, we’ll need to deploy and refine all the digital tactics we’ve used in 2020 to reimagine what advocacy looks like in this era.
- Grassroots Indivisibles are key to the movement's success -- our deep network of local groups working for change in their communities have accomplished amazing things, and we’re constantly building out our suite of resources, tools, and trainings to help empower and support those groups and strengthen the movement.
We’re getting started by prepping for all this work right now, and we’ve got a goal of raising almost $200,000 in these last two months of the year to help us hit the ground running. All our digital tools and advertisements, the resources we provide to groups, the hundreds of hours our policy experts will spend fleshing out plans for each piece of our agenda -- it all costs money. We rely on grassroots supporters, not corporations or politicians, to make that possible: give $10 to fund our advocacy efforts and support all our plans for next year.
