Indivisibles,
Two key threads ran through President Biden’s State of the Union address
this week -- easing the lives of working class families and ensuring our
country is set up to prosper long into the future. Whether looking at the
war in Ukraine, cracking down on corporations that are price gouging basic
necessities for families, or creating jobs for millions of Americans,
these two themes were the underlying building blocks of President Biden’s
view for our collective future.
We agree! But…how do we get there (and what can I do)?
We start by addressing the debt crisis overwhelming millions of Americans
and doing everything possible to turn back the clock on climate change.
The best part? There is a simple action, directly in the hands of the
president, that could immediately jumpstart the effort to address these
issues. It’s called executive action and [ [link removed] ]here’s a deeper dive into what
Executive Action means and how it works.
So, Let’s Go Joe!
Through executive action, the president could cancel large swaths of
student loan debt with the stroke of a pen. He could take bold action and
declare a national climate emergency to transition our country to a green,
renewable energy future. He could use federal contracting and tax
regulations to reverse Trump-era giveaways to corporations. And, he could
address the rampant price gouging being performed by pharmaceutical
companies directly impacting everyday Americans -- just to name a few.
How can you help?
By doing what Indivisibles do best -- pressuring our representatives
through clear messages of support for a strategy of executive action with
a new campaign we’re calling Let’s Go Joe! The first actions look like
this:
1. If you're represented by a Democrat (i.e. the ones President Biden is
most likely to listen to): Call your senator(s) with the [ [link removed] ]Democratic
Senate script here or your House representative with the [ [link removed] ]Democratic
House script here and let them know you need them to encourage the
president (Let’s Go Joe!) to take action.
2. If you're represented by a Republican or you don’t have congressional
representation: [ [link removed] ]Use this script to advocate with the White House
directly. Honestly, we know it’s not as effective as calling your own
representative (which is why if you have Dem. representatives, you
should call them!) but it does give the president a strong platform to
show Republicans these policies are popular in their districts too.

us understand what is most important to the movement and what you’d be
most excited to work on.
This is the beginning of a new endeavor for Indivisible, but it is
grounded in the same grassroots advocacy that has been the backbone of our
movement from the beginning. When Indivisibles activate, we change the
direction of America for the better. Thank you for continuing on this ride
with us.
In solidarity,
