We need your support to continue the grassroots organizing that makes progressive victories possible Indivisibles,
Do you know what tomorrow is? Trick question. It’s actually two things: Giving Tuesday AND the kickoff of a grueling several weeks in Congress -- the final weeks, for at least two years, when we’ll have a Democratic trifecta to pass progressive, pro-democracy legislation.
And for Indivisible, those two things are closely related because our $130,000 Giving Tuesday goal represents our advocacy budget for the rest of the year -- the funds we’ll need to work around the clock and make every minute with our Democratic majorities count.
Can you chip in to help us reach our $130,000 Giving Tuesday goal and ensure we have everything we need to push through progressive legislation in these last few weeks?
If you haven't already, be sure to read our message from Saturday to see our final session priorities. Together, we'll make sure Democrats make full use of the majorities we helped to deliver.
In solidarity, Indivisible Team

Indivisibles,
We know your inboxes over the past few months have been absolutely deluged with fundraising emails from every campaign, party committee, and organization under the sun.
We know some of those emails were from us. And we know you dug deep this election to ward off a red wave and help secure victories for our candidates up and down the ballot.
But as you know, the work doesn’t end on Election Day. Even after the polls close, elections end, and campaigns pack up shop until the next time they need to ask you for money, Indivisible is still here, doing the grassroots organizing 365 days a year that makes progressive victories -- at the ballot box and in Congress -- possible.
And in fact, some of the most important work ahead of us begins right now, as we strive to use every moment left of our Democratic trifecta to pass our agenda and minimize the harm MAGA Republicans can do when their House majority begins.
We don’t send fundraising emails for the sake of fundraising emails. We’re reaching out this Giving Tuesday because we’re up against a ticking clock, and we need your help to make the most of every minute between when Congress returns for its final session and January 3 (when the next Congress is sworn in).
Can you chip in $10 to help us reach our $130,000 Giving Tuesday goal and ensure our final session work is fully funded?

If you missed our recent post-election strategy briefing, our plan for the rest of the 117th Congress is straightforward: We delivered Democrats the House, Senate, and White House in 2018 and 2020, and we’re going to demand they use every remaining moment of the trifecta to do what we elected them to do.
That means:
- Putting viable bills up for votes before Republicans can use their House majority to block them -- We’ve already seen progress on the Respect for Marriage Act, but we’re not stopping there. There’s more this Congress can do to protect our freedoms and reinforce our democracy. We’ve listed some priorities here.
- Protecting Social Security and Medicare by lifting the debt ceiling -- Again and again (and again), Republicans have tried to hold the debt ceiling hostage to demand cuts to programs depended on by millions of Americans. They’re already threatening to do it again -- unless Democrats agree to slash Social Security and Medicare. Lifting the debt ceiling during THIS Congress will take the detonator out of MAGA Republicans’ hands.
With major budget decisions coming this month and crucial programs in Republicans’ crosshairs, the stakes are HIGH. But we’re ready to rise to the challenge, providing our entire grassroots movement with the infrastructure, digital tools and training, messaging guidance, and real-time legislative updates that’ll be necessary to win.
We just finished up a grueling midterm cycle where so much was asked of all of us. Unlike the other side, we don’t do all that work just for the sake of winning and holding onto power.
We build power so we can use it to make this country a freer, safer, and more just place for everyone who lives here. And we have a chance, over the next month, to push the House and Senate majorities we fought so hard for to do just that.
That’s why we’re reaching out today, as emails are likely piling up in your inbox once again, to ask you to chip in toward Indivisible’s $130,000 Giving Tuesday goal.

The single largest source of funding for Indivisible is small-dollar donations. So we mean this when we say it: Literally none of this is possible without supporters like you pitching in.
Thanks so much for all you do to fuel this movement.
In solidarity, Indivisible Team
P.S. -- Just as we don’t send fundraising emails for the sake of sending fundraising emails, we don’t include arbitrary goals just because they sound good. Our $130,000 Giving Tuesday goal represents the cost of our advocacy work -- and all that goes into it -- through the end of the year. Because we’re running a fundraising gap heading into December, reaching that goal is crucial to our final session work.
