KEEP CONTACTING YOUR SENATORS!

Keep making your voice heard! We need our electeds to STAND UP and FIGHT against this authoritarian coup. Keep up the pressure!

And yes, thank them when they do something good and right (we all need encouragement), then make another ask. They need to stall and delay and use every tool in their toolbox that they forget they have!

KEEP CENTERING OUR HUMANITY!

Many of our groups are giving time and effort to their communities and to mutual aid. Indivisible Metro Detroit has come up with this great Mutual Aid primer - share widely and embrace it!

We are stronger together.

And on a global scale, share this widely:
