Indivisibles,
It’s happening: Senate Republicans just filibustered the For the People
Act, blocking movement on crucial democracy reform provisions to curb
money in politics, expand voting access, and more. This is the nail in the
coffin for any illusions that the GOP will suddenly quit their partisan
obstructionism and decide to support these widely popular measures.
We don’t have any more time to waste playing their games -- we need to
pass the For the People Act by the end of July (that’s the Deadline for
Democracy) to make sure it’s in effect before next year’s midterms. It’s
time to eliminate the filibuster and pass real, transformative democracy
reform. And we need to do it as soon as the Senate returns from recess.
That’s where we come in. Indivisibles have what it takes to build a
massive mobilization and show our senators we demand real change. And with
Congress’ two-week-long recess starting in just a few days, it’s the
perfect time to make sure they hear us. So right now, we’ve got two big
things for you to do to make this mobilization a success:
* Before anything else, head over to the [ [link removed] ]Deadline for Democracy
website, find an event near you, and sign up to attend over the next
three weeks. Or, if there isn’t an event on the map in your area, get
a few friends together and [ [link removed] ]register your own event by clicking
here. Getting as many people in the streets and in Senate offices as
possible, and building enough media attention that senators can’t
ignore us is crucial to succeeding this recess. We need you to join
in. It worked for the Tea Party, and it worked for us when we saved
the Affordable Care Act. It will work again now if you can join.
* Then, [ [link removed] ]click here to make a donation to Indivisible. For this recess
alone, we’re planning to spend over $505,000 on things like digital
ads and recruitment, event swag, postcards, and more to ensure a
successful mobilization -- and it’s all a part of our bigger democracy
reform budget. We’re grassroots-funded, which means people like you,
giving an average of just $23, make our work possible.

Watching the Senate GOP fight tooth and nail to keep the people’s voices
out of our government is infuriating. They’re doing it because they can’t
win on their policy positions: we have the people on our side.
We knew months ago that a situation like this was coming, and we’ve been
preparing for it. It’s time to put all those plans and all that energy
into motion and win. And no matter what happens, we’ll keep fighting,
because we the people deserve better, and we know just how much we can
accomplish when we work together. Every person -- including you -- can
make the difference in this fight, in whatever way works.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
