Indivisibles,

First and foremost: Shana Tova to all of our Jewish Indivisibles
celebrating!

On this Wednesday at 1pm ET/10am PT, there is another January 6th
Committee hearing as they continue to meticulously track and document the
attempted coup on the White House. These hearings have been instrumental
in laying out the case for how the attempted coup occurred, who was
involved, how they were involved, and why. (Bonus: Ginni Thomas, wife of
extremist Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, has agreed to speak to
the committee, though we don’t yet know when this will happen.) 

As a reminder, [ [link removed] ]FiveThirtyEight published this interactive webpage
detailing how 60% of Americans will have an election denier on their
ballot this year. That means the majority of voters in our country will
choose whether to vote for the truth or an attempted coup concealed by a
fictitious attempt to claim voter fraud. 

The choice is clear. 

Lies can not be the basis of our democracy. Our elected leaders must agree
on some fundamental understanding of free and fair elections. When
extremists, determined to force their defeated candidate into the
presidency, gain control of local and federal political office, the will
of the people is no longer the foundation of our government -- we are no
longer a democracy. 

There are ten key races we’ve identified in our [ [link removed] ]Give No Ground campaign
that are vital to protecting that democracy. What are you going to do to
ensure we win?

With that, here are your weekly to-dos:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Your 5 weekly to-dos 

 1. [ [link removed] ]Click here to register for our joint phonebank for Mandela Barnes,
Matt Cartwright, and John Fetterman on Sunday October 2 at 2pm ET/11am
PT. Mandela Barnes’ opponent, Ron Johnson, actively worked to support
the January 6th plot to overturn the election. Though he has since
tried to distance himself, the text messages uncovered by the House
committee clearly show Johnson attempting to aid the coup. All three
of these candidates are battling MAGA extremism in critical races. Hop
on the phones this weekend and protect our country from MAGA mayhem.
 2. [ [link removed] ]Click here to register to Give No Ground. Click “volunteer” in the
top right corner. If you are a part of an Indivisible group, register
as a group, if not you can register as an individual. This is where we
will do the work for the next 42 days to hold the House and achieve a
real majority in the Senate. To win, we must get the message out. Give
No Ground is our home for opportunities to phonebank, textbank,
canvass, postcard, and more so that when November comes around, we can
say that we gave it our all for democracy. MAGA Republicans are
mobilizing, but there are more of us than there are of them. Let’s
make sure we show it!
 3. [ [link removed] ]Click here to sign up for the Indivisible Truth Brigade.
Propaganda, false characterizations, intentionally misleading
messages, and outright lies threaten our democracy and even our lives.
We can effectively combat disinformation, despite the well-funded
machines that drive it. People believe sources they trust! Lies are on
the ballot this November and when lies are on the ballot, we have both
a moral and an existential responsibility to stop them from winning.
Sign up to learn how to fight disinformation in a way that drives
change and protects our communities from the threat of extremism. 
 4. [ [link removed] ]Click here to call your senator and demand they pass the Markey
Court Expansion Bill. Even as Democrats work to expand our rights, the
threat of them being overturned by the Supreme Court looms large. We
must expand the court after Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell conspired
to pack it for generations to come. The only way to re-legitimize the
court is to expand it. Contact your senator and, when you’re done,
[ [link removed] ]click here to contact your representative and tell them to pass
Rep. Mondaire Jones' House version of the bill.
 5. Do you live in a rural area? [ [link removed] ]Click here to join our National Rural
Program. We have special election resources and calls specifically for
our rural Indivisibles where you can learn more about strategies and
issues specific to Indivisibles living in rural areas. If you want an
idea of what that looks like, [ [link removed] ]click here to check out our agenda
and notes from previous meetings.

 Upcoming Phonebanks 

[ [link removed] ]Give No Ground Candidate GIF featuring Mark Kelly, Katie Porter, Mike
Levin, Raphael Warnock, Lauren Underwood, Andy Kim, Jamie Mcleod-Skinner,
Matt Cartwright, John Fetterman, and Mandela Barnes

With 42 days until the November 8 midterm elections, we want to start
highlighting action events Indivisibles can participate in to Give No
Ground this cycle. We’ll use this section to list out the upcoming
phonebanking opportunities so that you have quick and simple access to
information about how to defend democracy. Sign up for one, or sign up for
them all. Either way, commit to going one step further until November. 

Tomorrow, September 27:

Georgia is a key state in this year’s election cycle (remember, it was
run-offs in Georgia in 2020 that gained us a majority). Raphael Warnock is
back on the ballot and he needs all of our help. [ [link removed] ]Click here to RSVP to
phonebank for Rev. Warnock at 6pm ET/3pm PT. The phonebank will be hosted
by Indivisible Georgia District 10 and Indivisible GA-04, two local groups
who organize year-round in Georgia. 

This Wednesday, September 28:

Oregon features another one of our Give No Ground races: Jamie
Mcleod-Skinner for OR-05. This race is currently rated as a toss-up and is
pivotal to stopping her MAGA extremist opponent who still refuses to
acknowledge Biden won the 2020 election. [ [link removed] ]RSVP here to phonebank for
Jamie Mcleod-Skinner at 8pm ET/5pm PT. Don’t worry if you’ve never done
something like this before, we’ll provide training on the candidate and
the calling tool. This phonebank repeats every Wednesday until the
election. 

This Thursday, September 29:

Are you fed up with MAGA Republicans rolling back our right to choose?
Come to our Deep Canvassing Phonebank focused on abortion access for
candidates on the West Coast. We know that voters are moving toward us on
abortion and MAGA extremism. But there are still folks out there with
conflicting beliefs, and through deep canvassing, we can move them to our
side! We’ll call voters who are likely pro-choice but don’t always vote
for Democrats, have open conversations about their stake in abortion
access, and move them to act on their beliefs by voting for progressive
candidates. [ [link removed] ]RSVP for our Deep Canvassing Phonebank to conflicted
Pro-Choice Voters in AZ & OR-5 from 8pm-11pm ET/5pm-8pm PT. We’ve been
moving around 10% of voters we talk to, a massive electorate shift
especially in close races! Please note this is a 3hr event: you’ll receive
a 1hr training on deep canvassing fundamentals, followed by a 2hr
phonebank + debrief for the Give No Ground candidate of your choice in
Arizona or Oregon.

 National Events 

[ [link removed] ]Click here to register for Indivisible Rural Caucus’ September monthly
call on Wednesday, September 28 at 8pm ET/5pm PT. Join the Indivisible
Rural Caucus to learn about some new resources available for electoral
funding. As usual, we’ll be focusing on topics pertaining to rural
organizing, but all are welcome. Stick around until the end of the call
for a special action opportunity to support Oregon rural candidate Jamie
McCleod Skinner!

[ [link removed] ]Click here to RSVP for the Jan 6th Justice Activist Call: Mobilizing
this Fall and How to Take Action to Protect Our Elections on Thursday,
September 29 at 4:30pm ET/1:30pm PT. The January 6th Select Committee has
shown that Trump and his MAGA allies planned, promoted, and paid for a
criminal conspiracy to overturn an election they knew they’d lost. We must
hold them accountable. Join Indivisible along with Public Citizen to learn
how to take action to defend our democracy.

[ [link removed] ]Click here to RSVP for Unrig the Courts’ Supreme Court Preview: What’s
Next from the MAGA Court on Thursday September 29 at 8pm ET/5pm PT. The
conservative majority on the Supreme Court is out of control, and have
already attacked our voting rights, our access to abortion, our
environment, and so much more. But they're not done -- the Supreme Court
will return for its October term next month, and will be hearing even more
cases that have the potential to further erode our constitutional rights.
RSVP for this event now, and tune in to hear from experts about what's at
stake and how we can fight back. Join Indivisible and partners in the
Unrig the Courts Coalition for this livestream event featuring special
guest Representative Mondaire Jones!

 Messaging to Win in 2022 

[ [link removed] ]We decide what's possible

[ [link removed] ]Join Indivisible and partner organizations in the Protect Our Freedoms
coalition on Mondays at 4pm ET/1pm PT for our Messaging to Win in 2022
briefings. In these sessions we’ll cover the latest intel on key
battleground races and share tested messaging on what it will take to
protect our freedoms. We’ll present up-to-date research into attitudes of
key voting segments, as well as talking points, messaging, and calls to
action to mobilize our base to the polls and swing conflicted voters to
our side.

let that happen. For the next 42 days, we work for truth.
