Hey Everyone,
Our thoughts continue to be with the storm victims. This past week we donated $100 to the tornado recovery efforts. If you're interested in donating, you can contribute to the Team Kentucky Storm Relief Fund ([link removed]) .
Thank you for all your resistance efforts this prevous week. Working together, we are making our voices heard and pushing back against harmful legislation. Check out the actions you can take this week below. It is essential that you can contact our senators about the budget reconciliation bill now!
Also, we thank you for your donations so far to assist with our purchasing audio equipment. We've been renting audio equipment for every rally—but we're in this for the long haul. It's time to invest in our own sound system so we can keep showing up loud and clear in this fight for democracy.
Maybe we can get it in time for the protest on June 14? 🤔 🙏
Our goal is $1,500. You've helped us reach almost 30% of our goal!
We can’t do it without you. Chip in now—every dollar makes a difference!
