Indivisibles,
   I’m going to keep this intro short, because when you’ve got the goods,
   it’s better to show than tell. And last week we showed what democracy
   looks like! This last week was the Senate’s first and the House’s second
   congressional recess of the year. And Indivisibles showed up everywhere --
   we tracked about 200 local events nationwide. 
   Republicans: Out of sight, but not out of mind. The vast majority of the
   local events were Republican “missing member” town halls -- ie, town halls
   held on behalf of Republicans who are currently hiding from their own
   voters. These took place in states [ [link removed] ]Maine, [ [link removed] ]Alaska, [ [link removed] ]Montana, and
   [ [link removed] ]North Carolina -- states with the most vulnerable Republican senators
   up next year. The 15 most vulnerable House Republicans did not show up for
   public town halls last week -- but in every single one of those districts,
   there was an Indivisible group (and many partners!) holding a missing
   member town hall. We saw empty chairs, [ [link removed] ]cardboard cut outs,
   [ [link removed] ]ridiculous masks, and [ [link removed] ]chicken costumes galore. The message broke
   through with dozens and dozens of [ [link removed] ]local, [ [link removed] ]state, and [ [link removed] ]national
   media stories about all these cowardly Republicans.
   How we’re encouraging Dems to fight back. With a few exceptions, like
   no-show Fetterman, the Democratic district and state events generally
   looked like normal, old-fashioned town hall events with the actual Members
   of Congress. Indivisible pushed these members to fight back with
   everything they’ve got. Two of them -- [ [link removed] ]Glenn Ivey in Maryland and
   Delia Ramirez in Illinois -- called for Chuck Schumer to step down from
   Senate leadership. Over the weekend, I was talking to a Member of Congress
   who hadn’t yet called for Schumer to step down. “Why not?” I asked. “Well
   nobody has asked me at a town hall yet -- if they did, I probably would.”
   [ [link removed] ]As I told Chris Hayes after his Schumer interview last week, we get
   the Party we demand -- if you want something better, demand it. 
   April 5 is coming up next. We’re now building the largest one-day
   mobilization in years: the April 5 Hands Off! day of protest. As of this
   morning, there are more than 600 local events planned, and we’ve got
   nearly two weeks to go. Nothing stops authoritarians in their tracks like
   organized people power -- and we’re organizing it in communities
   throughout the country right now. All this work depends on real life
   people taking real life action. 
   See below for some practical things you can do this week to tell the
   authoritarians to keep their grubby little hands off our families, our
   schools, our communities, and our democracy. As you think about how to
   take action locally, feel free to hit [ [link removed] ]me or [ [link removed] ]Leah up on BlueSky, or
   [ [link removed] ]join us for the weekly What’s The Plan live Q&A on Thursday!

                               Your weekly to-dos
    1. [ [link removed] ]Find or register an event for our April 5 mass mobilization.
       Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They're
       taking everything they can get their hands on, and daring the world to
       stop them. On April 5, we're taking to the streets nationwide to fight
       back with a clear message: Hands off! Click the link above to find or
       plan an event near you.
    2. [ [link removed] ]Join a phonebank to get out the vote in Wisconsin. With just one
       week to go until Election Day, we need all hands on deck to stop Elon
       Musk from buying a seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Sign up for
       one of our six upcoming phonebanks to help boost turnout and keep our
       liberal majority on the state supreme court. 
    3. [ [link removed] ]Call your Democratic senator(s) and tell them Schumer must step
       down. With Trump and Musk actively working to dismantle our democracy,
       we need Democratic leaders who recognize the crisis we’re in and are
       willing to fight back as hard as we are. Through his words and
       inaction, Chuck Schumer has told us that he is not that leader. If you
       have a Democratic senator, call and tell them Schumer must step down.
    4. [ [link removed] ]Process the news with Indivisible co-founders Ezra Levin and Leah
       Greenberg this Thursday at 3pm ET/12pm PT. Every Thursday at 3pm, we
       take a step back to absorb the news of the past week, draw inspiration
       from the work Indivisibles and allies are doing all across the
       country, and talk about how we fight back. 
   P.S. -- With social media companies bending the knee to Trump, Project
   2025 purging the government of dissenters, and corporate media companies
   caving in the face of speech-chilling lawsuits, it’s never been more
   important to invest in organizations you believe in that are willing to
   speak out and defy autocracy. [ [link removed] ]Please consider chipping in with a
   monthly or one-time donation to help us keep up the fight.

            Join the Families Over Billionaires Rally this Wednesday
   Congress is coming back from recess and Republicans in Washington must
   decide whose side they are on: hardworking Americans just trying to get
   by, or their billionaire donors demanding tax breaks at the expense of
   everyone else.
   Their draconian budget proposal would cut Medicaid by $880 billion, take
   food away from children in need, increase housing and grocery costs, and
   more. Meanwhile, Elon Musk is slashing funding for veterans, Social
   Security, and public education. All of this chaos and harm, just to fund
   tax cuts for billionaires. 
   We’re fighting back and teaming up with Families Over Billionaires to
   welcome Republicans back to DC with a major mobilization. [ [link removed] ]Rally with
   us on Wednesday, March 26 at 10:15am to tell Congress no tax breaks for
   billionaires on the backs of working families.

                         Trans Day of Visibility Rally
   Trump and Republicans are using every tool at their disposal to scrub
   transgender people from America. But trans and queer people were always
   here. Women were always here. Immigrants were always here. All of us,
   together, are America. Our freedom is ours, and it cannot be bought by a
   billionaire or stomped on by a dictator. We’re not going anywhere.
   Next week, for Trans Day of Visibility, thousands of people will gather
   alongside transgender rights advocates, organizations, and allies in DC to
   send a clear message: Our freedoms are bound together.
   [ [link removed] ]Join us on Monday, March 31 at 4pm to rally, hear from activists and
   over a dozen members of Congress, and show Donald Trump that we’re not
   giving up in the fight for trans rights.

        Red state and rural Indivisibles: Join our March 26 caucus call
   One of the most common questions we get is, “I’m in a deep red
   district/I’m in a rural area with little party infrastructure -- what can
   I do?” Our Rural and Red Caucus calls are a great place to find the
   answers! 
   Each month, grassroots leaders from rural areas and Republican-dominated
   districts/states come together to strategize about messaging and tactics
   that we employ to change hearts and minds in our communities and build
   grassroots political power. 
   [ [link removed] ]Join our next Red and Rural Caucus call on Wednesday, March 26, at 8pm
   ET/ 5pm PT.

         Help combat disinformation with the Indivisible Truth Brigade
   Disinformation thrives in our overwhelming “attention economy,” where
   human attention is the most valuable resource driving profit and political
   outcomes. Algorithms and sensationalism exploit our emotional responses,
   luring truth-seekers into false narratives. In a society where sound
   decision-making depends on access to accurate information, inattention
   poses a serious threat.
   [ [link removed] ]Join us on April 9 at 6:30pm ET/3:30pm PT for a discussion on how to
   protect truth, combat misinformation, and restore focus on what matters
   most in today's media landscape.
