Your weekly to-dos

By | |
  1. Phonebank for Indivisible endorsed candidate Julie Gonzales (CO-Sen) tomorrow, Tuesday, June 23 (7:30pm ET/4:30pm PT). Gonzales is up against a Democratic incumbent who has voted to confirm more of Trump’s cabinet nominees than any other Democrat not named Fetterman. Coloradans deserve a progressive fighter in the battle against authoritarianism, not a centrist. Gonzales’ primary is in just over a week on June 30, so your calls can make a big difference right now. Paid for by Indivisible Action. Not authorized by any candidate or candidate committee.
  2. Continue to urge your Members of Congress to demand dignity for detained immigrants at Delaney Hall and detention centers across the US. Just last week, Members of Congress were denied access to immigrants detained at Delaney Hall during an oversight visit after previously being allowed to speak with people inside. We must insist that Members of Congress do everything in their power to escalate their oversight actions and bring attention to the horrifying conditions and human rights abuses at Delaney Hall and Trump’s concentration camps around the country.
  3. Keep calling your US senators and urge them to oppose AI mass surveillance. FISA, an infamous spying law that opened the door for warrantless surveillance of American citizens, expired earlier this month. Unless our Members of Congress want to be complicit in the continued chilling of our freedom of speech, they must hold the line for our civil liberties.
  4. Once you’ve called your US senators, call your US representative and demand the same. Given FISA’s potential to be supercharged by AI and abused by this regime, serious guardrails on this legislation are more important than ever. You can follow up with a quick email to all of your Members of Congress.
  5. Register for our Immigrant Justice Summer Training Series, beginning July 9, to learn how to build a safe, hyper-local, immigrant-aligned response when ICE comes to your community. ICE announced it’s offloading 7 of the 11 warehouses it bought for mass detention after communities across the country organized, sued, and showed up. With $70 billion in new DHS funding, the fight isn’t over. We need to be prepared on how to respond in our own communities. Immigrant Justice Summer will give you the tools you need.
