Indivisibles,
Wow! Over the past week and a half, activists in 40 states and DC have
hosted or planned nearly 400 [ [link removed] ]Deadline for Democracy events calling on
our Senators to pass S. 1, the For the People Act.
The photos have poured in from all over, from [ [link removed] ]drummers and dancers
outside Sen. Tillis’s office in North Carolina and Rep. Jimmy Gomez
[ [link removed] ]standing on the back of a truck to rally Los Angeles Indivisibles, to a
[ [link removed] ]rolling billboard in Arizona and a [ [link removed] ]newspaper ad in Colorado, to
Tennessee Indivisibles demanding their Senators [ [link removed] ]stop trashing our
democracy. As we say when we’re marching: this is what democracy looks
like. Not just voting, but holding our elected officials accountable every
day.

If you haven’t yet made it to an event, there’s still time -- [ [link removed] ]check out
our event map and see if there’s an event near you. But if your local
event has already happened, never fear! There’s a lot more left to do.
🥇 [MOST IMPORTANT] Set yourself a daily reminder to [ [link removed] ]call your senator
every day and tell them to pass S.1 (the “For the People Act”). Phone
calls and in-person meetings are the most effective ways to influence your
senator, and since we need to pass this bill before August recess, calling
daily now is truly crucial. We know it might feel odd to call over and
over, but please know that your second and third calls are just as
important as the first one. Click on one of the links below, and we’ll add
a reminder to your calendar with all the details:

🥈 Mark your calendar for Saturday, July 17th. We’re partnering with other
progressive organizations on John Lewis Democracy Vigils all across the
country that night. [ [link removed] ]You can find an event near you here -- more are
being added every day.
🥉 If you have a few bucks to spare, [ [link removed] ]click here to donate to fund
Indivisible's work. We’ve budgeted over half a million dollars on our
democracy campaigns this year, not to mention all our other work, and
things like the mobile billboards, the newspaper ad, materials for events,
and the technology to get everyone organized all cost money. Anything you
can give will help us keep this work going for the long haul!
It’s been inspiring and heartening to watch the stories and photos pour in
over the past week, and we know it’s making a difference. Thank you, thank
you, thank you.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
