Indivisibles,
The next seven days are crucial for us to pass a big, bold, inclusive
recovery package that prioritizes all the progressive issues we care about
most. We’ve been busy navigating the shifting terrain on Capitol Hill,
pivoting to meet the urgency of the moment, and we’ve got one week left to
sway the last House Dems to pass the reconciliation package before the
September 27 deadline. Don’t forget -- this deadline was forced by ten
conservative Democrats who wanted to water down the recovery bill and pass
the bipartisan infrastructure framework in its stead.
All month long, we’ve been using a three-pronged approach to be most
effective -- we’ve been supporting House progressives to hold the line;
we’ve been putting the heat on conservative Democrats to fall in line; and
we’ve been supporting Indivisible groups whose members of Congress sit on
key, decision-making committees. Now with an impending vote in the coming
days, we need to make sure we get this reconciliation bill passed. [ [link removed] ]Call
your members of Congress (House and Senate!) and demand they support an
inclusive recovery package. Then, keep calling.
We’re confident that we can make a real impact on this piece of
legislation, but it takes consistent, applied pressure on our elected
officials. Whether we’re talking about recovery or the upcoming democracy
reform showdown in October, Indivisibles have all the tools to win. With
that, here are your weekly to-dos:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your weekly to-dos
1. [ [link removed] ]Make calls on an inclusive recovery package before it’s too late.
We’ve only got a few days left to make this recovery as big and bold
as possible, so [ [link removed] ]click here to call your representative now. [ [link removed] ]Then
click here to call your senators and demand they pass the bill
immediately after the House sends it over.
2. [ [link removed] ]Tell your representative to protect Roe v. Wade now. Call your rep
now and demand they cosponsor the Women’s Health Protection Act, and
vote to pass the bill when the House takes it up this week.
3. [ [link removed] ]Call your senators and demand they eliminate the filibuster to
protect our democracy. Senate Democrats released a new version of
their democracy reform bill, the Freedom to Vote Act, which builds on
the For the People Act. We need them to eliminate the filibuster now
to pass the bill.
P.S. We rely on your support to keep call
pages up and running, fund ads to get the word out, and continue all the
work we’re doing this year. [ [link removed] ]If you’re able, click here to donate to
help fund our work.

[ [link removed] ]Senate Recovery Action Workshop -- Tuesday, Sept. 21 at 8pm ET / 5pm
PT Democrats have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make the biggest
expansion of the social safety net since the 1960s. The only thing getting
in the way? Other Democrats. [ [link removed] ]Click here to join us for a special
combined Climate, Healthcare, and Econ Justice Working Group focusing on
our strategy for passing this all-important recovery bill and getting

O’Neill, and Julia Santos will walk us through our key policy priorities
and give tailored strategies and talking points to lobby every senator:
moderates, progressives, key committee members, and everyone in between.
We’ll end with an action workshop to contact our senators and let them
know we want an inclusive recovery now!
