Protests planned and Indivisible has a TO DO LIST...

Protests planned and Indivisible has a TO DO LIST...
Your 4 weekly to-dos :

1. Sign up to make some calls connecting voters to senators to connecting voters to sen ators to demand a complete and fair impeachment trial. We’ve said this already, but we’re halfway to our goal of calling one million constituents of the 13 senators who really need to hear from them (senators who are vulnerable because they’re up for reelection next year and folks who are retiring and worrying a lot about their legacies). We're asking you to call voters in those states to turn up the pressure on their elected officials. It’s a simple four-part process:
2. You call a progressive voter in a key state with one of these 13 Republicans. These folks are your friends—they attended the Women’s March and/or fight for progressive causes.
You explain how they have power now. You’ll remind them why the continued fight for impeachment is so important—and why they have particular power in this moment.
You ask them to use their power. Then, you’ll ask them to call their senator and make their voices heard on why we’re demanding courage in this moment.
You push a button and connect them to their senator’s office. The call tool will allow you to automatically patch them through to the senator’s local office.
3. Register or find a Trump is Not Above the Law Impeachment Eve event now. The night before the House of Representatives takes a historic vote to impeach Trump, we'll head to every congressional office and public square to declare that Nobody Is Above the Law as representatives finalize their positions and senators look on. There are more than 265 events on the map as of now with more being added every day. Take a look to find (or host) one near you.

Hundreds of Thousands Expected to Join 'Historic Nationwide Mobilization' on Eve of Trump Impeachment Vote

"The night before the House of Representatives takes a historic vote to impeach Trump," progressive groups said of the anticipated action, "we'll head to every congressional office and public square to declare that nobody is above the law."

A coalition of progressive advocacy groups on Friday announced plans for a "historic nationwide mobilization" across the U.S. on the eve of the House's yet-to-be-scheduled vote on articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump.

Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to take to the streets around the country, said the "Nobody Is Above the Law" coalition, which includes MoveOn, Public Citizen, Indivisible, and Stand Up America, as well as more than a dozen other organizations.

There are several in my city. I know that calling and writing to others in red or purple areas is very effective. They have something for everyone to do and it doesn't cost money or make you travel to have an impact on other Americans. You can do a lot from your own home.
