Indivisibles, 

According to a new NYT/Siena poll, Republicans have gained ground in the
outlook for the upcoming midterm elections:

[ [link removed] ]Republicans Gain Edge as Voters Worry About Economy, Times/Siena Poll
Finds

The Times specifically notes that women who identified as independent
voters swung from favoring Democrats by 14 points in September to favoring
Republicans by 18 points in October. That is a drastic change in the
electorate just weeks before the election. 

Now, juxtapose that poll finding with this Truth Social message from Trump
this weekend:

[ [link removed] ]Donald Trump Truth Social Post: "No President has done more for Israel
than I have. Somewhat surprisingly, however, our wonderful Evangelicals
are far more appreciative of this than the people of the Jewish faith,
especially those living in the U.S. Those living in Israel, though, are a
different story - Highest approval rating in the World, could easily be
P.M.! U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they
have in Israel - Before it is too late!"

This is what we are up against. This is the end result of complacency --
the return of antisemitism, racism, ableism, and misogyny to the forefront
of American politics.

As Republicans pivot the focus of the midterms to a bland, unsupported
version of “we’re better for the economy,” the American people are left
with extremists like Donald Trump and his supporters. MAGA Republicans win
when progressives get comfortable.

Since the fall of Roe, we have seen a shift in what appears possible for
the upcoming midterm elections. There is an actual outside chance that
Democrats can hold the House and increase our majority in the Senate. 

That will not happen without the work of Indivisibles like you. 

We are watching independents once again be swayed by an “economy first”
argument which has done nothing but continue to fuel the separation
between the rich and everyone else. We cannot sit on the sidelines while
MAGA Republicans lie their way back into power and push their hateful
agenda. 

We are in the home stretch -- just three weeks from Election Day. From now
until November 8, we must stand up for the country we believe in. Get your
friends. Get your family. Get active. Get vocal. Get ready to do the work
to defend democracy. 

Losing is not an option.

With that, here are your weekly to-dos:

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

 Your 4 weekly to-dos 

 1. [ [link removed] ]Click here to register for our Deep Canvassing Phonebank to
Conflicted Pro-Choice Voters (East/Central) tomorrow Tuesday, October
18 from 5pm-8pm ET/2pm-5pm PT. MAGA Republicans are targeting
independents with messaging about the economy, deep canvassing is how
we reach out to those voters and remind them that Republicans are
looking to enforce a national abortion ban if they gain power. We can
not allow voters to forget what is actually on the line. Deep
canvassing allows us to have meaningful and fulfilling conversations
with voters across lines of difference moving ~10% of voters we
contact and ~30% of the voters considered movable. This is where we
make a difference. 
 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 three weeks 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] ]Join Indivisible and partners for a virtual letter writing event
this Wednesday, October 19 at 8pm ET/5pm PT. At this virtual event,
you’ll learn about how Vote Forward letters have been proven to
increase voter turnout, get tips and training on refining your message
to voters, and have your letter writing questions answered by the Vote
Forward team -- all while hearing from experts about what's at stake
during the midterms. Join us for The Big Send 10 million handwritten
letter campaign. 
 4. [ [link removed] ]Join Indivisible and the Progressive Caucus Action Fund for a free
webinar this Thursday, October 20 at 1pm ET/10am PT. This term, the
Supreme Court will consider more cases where our rights hang in the
balance -- from voting rights to clean water to tribal sovereignty,
our ability to reign in corporate monopolies and likely even Dreamers’
right to stay in their home. What will the cases before the Court this
term mean for our families and communities and how do we fight for a
Supreme Court that will truly protect our rights and freedoms? Join us
for Next on the Docket: A Supreme Court Preview with our very own
Meagan Hatcher-Mays as a special guest.
