Indivisibles,

We are looking at a winning week: 

* Last week, President Biden issued a directive to roll back Title 42
restrictions on asylum seekers, which will go into effect on May 23
(read more on that below).
* Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court nomination will head to
the Senate towards the end of this week, and she looks to have a clear
path to confirmation! 

We have cause to celebrate and room to keep pushing -- the best possible
combination for Indivisibles. 

With that, here are your weekly to-dos:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Your 4 weekly to-dos 

 1. [ [link removed] ]Click here to contact your representatives about the climate
crisis. There has been an upswing of reporting on President Biden
possibly using the Defense Protection Act to massively ramp up our
ability to manufacture clean energy technology, transition to
renewables, and create millions of jobs. We need to keep the heat on
to get this done, apply it broadly, and then get the President to
declare a national emergency, unlocking the full power of the
executive to address climate change. 
 2. [ [link removed] ]Click here to urge President Biden to take immediate action on
student debt. We eagerly await an announcement from the Biden
administration on student loans and hope that it includes an extension
of the payments pause and plans to cancel at least $50,000 of debt all
together. This would strengthen our economy and be a big step towards
addressing the massive racial wealth gap we have in this country.
 3. [ [link removed] ]Sign up for Indivisible’s National Rural Caucus. Whether you've
been organizing in your rural community for decades or are just
getting involved, our rural program provides space to connect with one
another, engage in rural electoral and advocacy work, and celebrate
rural resistance and power building. Sign up to receive a monthly
rural newsletter geared specifically towards organizing for change in
rural communities. 
 4. [ [link removed] ]Click here to demand swift confirmation of
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson if you have a Republican senator. [ [link removed] ]Click
here to urge your senator to support Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson for
the Supreme Court if they are a Democrat. This is likely the final
week to make an impact and ensure her confirmation. Judge Jackson has
already been confirmed three times in the past on a bipartisan basis
for her previous roles. She is clearly qualified. Call on your
senators to confirm Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson without delay. And, if
you need help, [ [link removed] ]click here to access a resource for pushing back on
right-wing lies about the Supreme Court nomination.

P.S. We rely on your support to keep call pages up and running, fund ads
to get the word out, and continue all the work we’re doing this year.

 Let's Go Joe 

[ [link removed] ]President Biden will end Title 42

We did it! On Friday April 1, President Biden ordered the phase-out of
Title 42, which will take effect on May 23. Through activists’ dedication
(and the leadership of partner organizations), we have been able to help
pressure the Biden administration to roll back this cruel policy left over
from a Trump administration more concerned with fear mongering and racism
than public health. Title 42 closed our borders to asylum seekers fleeing
persecution under the guise of public health during a pandemic while, in
practice, allowing Trump to block Brown and Black immigrants from entering
this country by legal means. 

Recently, the Biden administration exempted Ukrainians fleeing the war
from the impact of Title 42, and we are glad to see that compassion
extended to all Brown and Black peoples who have been disproportionately
harmed by this policy. Let’s celebrate this win -- [ [link removed] ]click here to tweet
your thanks at the White House and add a little encouragement to implement
this change immediately so that no person is sent back to imminent danger
under the fictitious guise of public health.

 Ukraine 

💔🇺🇦💔

The news out of Ukraine, and especially Bucha, has been absolutely
horrifying. Russia’s apparent war crimes once again show the lengths Putin
will go to attack democracy around the world. Despite what warmongers say,
escalating the violence through a no-fly zone, US troops, or hyped-up
military budgets is not the solution. Diplomacy and negotiations are the
only way this conflict ends. ([ [link removed] ]Which we joined over a dozen other
groups in saying last week.) 

One action you can take is to help disrupt the rampant disinformation
about the conflict. Our Truth Brigade’s Big Truths webinar on April 13
shines a spotlight on how corporations and right-wingers are using
disinformation to shift the blame for inflation fueled by the war in
Ukraine away from Putin and fossil fuel dependence. [ [link removed] ]Register here for
the Truth Brigade’s Webinar on Wednesday, April 13 at 6:30 ET/3:30 PT.
