Indivisibles,

Remember the night Trump’s first reconciliation bill failed and we saved
the Affordable Care Act?

I do. It was July 28, 2017.

After months of nonstop calls, packed town halls, and rallies in
blistering Arizona heat, every sign pointed to defeat. Republicans
appeared to have the votes to kill Obamacare, and we had our “we lost”
email written, proofed, and ready to send. But we should have known
better.

Because in those months, weeks, and days leading up to that vote,
Indivisibles never stopped fighting.

Activists like you showed up at Susan Collins’ Fourth of July parades with
signs and bullhorns. You stood outside John McCain’s Phoenix office in
100-degree heat. You flooded the Senate with calls. And at 1:29am that
July morning, McCain gave the most famous thumbs-down in Senate history --
joining Collins and Murkowski to kill Trumpcare for good.

That wasn’t luck. That was power -- your power. We fought until the gavel
fell, and we changed the course of history.

So, why am I telling you this story?

Simple.

Moments ago, almost 8 years to the day after we killed Trumpcare, the
Senate passed Trump’s Medicaid-slashing, billionaire-enriching, big ugly
bill. Republicans are celebrating, and we understand if you’re feeling
angry and deflated. Lord knows, we’re angry.

But this fight isn’t over. Not by a long shot.

You’ve already moved the needle. You made Medicaid the defining issue of
the debate. Senator Thom Tillis broke with Trump on national TV, called
out the cruelty of this bill, and announced he wouldn’t seek re-election
rather than betray his state’s Medicaid recipients. That didn’t happen in
a vacuum -- it happened because North Carolinians showed up, called in,
rallied at Hands Off events, and refused to let him look away.

The bill now heads back to the House, where Republicans can only afford to
lose three votes. It barely squeaked by with a single-vote margin the
first time, and it’s only gotten more divisive since:

The so-called deficit hawks are fuming about the $3 trillion this adds to
the debt.

Vulnerable “moderates” understand that ripping health insurance away from
17 million people and kicking 11.8 million more off SNAP in order to
shovel $4.5 trillion to the ultra-rich might not be a winning message back
home.

Anyone who tells you this is a done deal doesn’t know what the hell
they’re talking about.

Is it an uphill battle? Yes. But so was 2017.

So no matter where you live or who your Member of Congress is, here’s what
you can do right now:



If You Live in a Republican House District

📞 [ [link removed] ]Flood the phones. Tell your representative that a vote for this
bill is a vote to destroy lives -- and you’ll remember it. Then, [ [link removed] ]send
an email to drive home the point.

💪 [ [link removed] ]Fight back with friends. We’re stronger together, so encourage your
friends and family to take action to stop the cuts to Medicaid and SNAP.
Sign up and get access to Empower, an app that has everything you need
to text your circle about the Republican tax scam: ready-to-use scripts
and messages with links they can use to call their own Members of
Congress.

🧑‍💻 [ [link removed] ]Help spread the word about what’s in this bill using our social
toolkit. When people know what’s in the bill, they overwhelmingly oppose
it -- but a lot of people still aren’t aware of the details. You can
help change that.

📤 Forward this email. Five texts. One group chat. You never know who’s
in a swing district until you ask.



If You Don’t Live in a Republican District

📞 [ [link removed] ]Call folks whose GOP representatives are flippable. If you can
spare 1-2 hours for the fight, join a phonebank to call people in
vulnerable Republican districts, sound the alarm about this bill, and
patch them through to let their GOP representative have it. Anyone can
join a phonebank; you just need a phone and a computer.

know? Don’t risk it. Hit forward.

We already changed the trajectory of this fight in the Senate. We may have
come up a vote short, but all the pressure we’ve built is now being felt
by the House.

Will we win? I don’t know.

But this is what movements do. We rise when they expect us to fold. We
organize through the setbacks. And we win the fights they say are
impossible -- because we refuse to give up.

You ready?

Let’s finish what we started.

In solidarity,

P.S. This isn’t a fundraising email -- calls and door knocks and district
office visits matter more to us than dollars. But if you’ve got cash
itching for a fight, we’ll put it to good use: turbo-charging expanded
House phonebanks to patch folks through to their Members of Congress,
fueling door-knocks in key House districts, and plastering billboards in
key states and districts that scream, “You voted to rip away our
healthcare.” [ [link removed] ]If you want to chip in, click here (and thank you in
