Indivisible,

This week, we’ve been thrilled to see Democrats starting to speak out on
the filibuster. Mitch McConnell and Republicans in the Senate are counting
on making this issue seem like a complex, wonky rule, but it’s really
pretty simple -- the filibuster is what Republicans in the minority use to
stop progress. From civil rights legislation in the 1960s to our 2021
progressive agenda of desperately needed COVID-19 relief, healthcare,
immigration, climate, economic justice, voting rights, D.C. statehood, and
more, conservatives use the filibuster to obstruct when they're not in
power.

With a Democratic trifecta in the federal government, all these priorities
are within reach -- but only if we achieve long-overdue democracy reforms
to make sure our government is accountable to the people. That starts with
taking away McConnell’s favorite obstructionist tool, the filibuster.

We’ve got a plan to make it all happen. It’s going to take a lot of work:
writing resources and in-depth policy explainers, building websites,
hosting calling tools, and helping develop activists on the ground across
the country. The stakes are high, and the costs are too -- all in all,
we’re looking at a multi-million dollar effort to enact real change this
year. We rely on grassroots support from people like you to make it
possible.

Here are two ways you can get involved and help save democracy:

 1. Today: [ [link removed] ]Donate to Indivisible to keep our call page active, fund our
continually updated policy guidance, and keep us working on this and
all our upcoming fights this year.

 2. First thing Monday morning: [ [link removed] ]Call your senators to demand that they
hold firm and not give in to McConnell’s gambit to hold on to power in
the Senate.

From the Trump tax scam and protecting the Affordable Care Act to building
a nationwide grassroots network of policy activists, Indivisibles have
been hard at work for years in service of a vision for what this country
can become when we give power to the people. We have a chance to
accomplish major progressive change this year on all our priorities, and
it all hinges on creating a democracy that serves us. We’re ready to make
it happen -- and we’re thrilled you’re here with us.

In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
