Support voting right legislations

Call your Senators and ask them to act on S.1 (the For the People Act). If they support it, ask for  their plan to pass it in the Senate. 

And thank your Representative if they supported the For the People Act (H.R. 1) and ask them to support D.C. Statehood. (H.R. 51)

Select California Bills we want to support as a group

On the state level, the California Indivisible groups will soon be choosing which bills to focus on for 2021. We can make up to 5 recommendations as a group, with a March 1 deadline. If there is a bill you think is important, especially if it is one that hasn't received a lot of attention, please let us know ASAP via email or on Slack. If you'd like to look for worthy bills, this site allows you to search using keywords. Happy researching!

Attend Voting Rights Lab briefings

Recently some of us have attended briefings by Voting Rights Lab in conjunction with other groups. The information and messaging advice in these meetings, which happen roughly once a month, has been outstanding. We highly recommend signing up at Voting Rights Lab so that you have a chance to find out about and attend. One of the most important points is that many of our values, such as freedom, voice and inclusive democracy, are shared by the overwhelming majority of Americans. We should lead with those values when discussing objectives. For example, embrace phrases such as "freedom to vote" or "protecting our freedom to vote," which have strong support and generate emotional intensity.
