Trump and the GOP continue to attempt to undermine the protections of the ACA. The latest effort extends the purchase of short-term junk insurance plans (which are not covered under ACA regulations) from 3 months to 1 year. Call to oppose weakening the ACA.

In mid January, the Trump administration released new guidance allowing states to impose work requirements for those receiving Medicaid. Since this policy change, 10 states have implemented new requirements.

The death of Stephon Clark, an unarmed Black man standing in his own backyard, is just one example of the 270 people killed by police so far in 2018. States legislators are responsible for passing laws that allow for de-escalation training and for holding officers accountable for misconduct and excessive use of force. Call to reduce police violence.

Tell your Senator to oppose S.J. Res. 57: they should be backing, not blocking efforts to crack down on abusive car lending.

As the walls close in on Trump, he has taken to Twitter to lash out. His assault on the Russia investigation has intensified with Trump singling out Robert Mueller. Some Republicans have finally taken notice and will be hold a committee vote on a bill that would protect the special prosecutor. Call to protect the Mueller Investigation.

But it is unacceptable that our elected officials aren’t doing more to stop gun violence like the Parkland shooting. Like so many other issues, policymakers need to feel the pressure in order to take action. At the federal, state and local level, Indivisibles can have an impact in preventing gun violence. Here’s what you can do.

But state attorneys general are not having it. Within minutes after the FCC vote, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman announced a multi-state lawsuit against the agency to preserve the regulations. At least 18 states are joining in and taking action in opposition to the FCC, including Illinois, Oregon, Massachusetts, and Washington. Particularly, Schneiderman cited the flood of fake comments in the public record as a corrupting influence on the FCC’s process. He led a months-long investigation into the fake comments, which often used real people's names and addresses without their knowledge.

Governors are also not having it. Washington Governor Jay Inslee already started outlining creative measures to ensure net neutrality on the state level. California state Senator Scott Wiener promised to draft similar legislation.

Senators Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), Mark Warner (D-VA) and John McCain (R-AZ) have introduced the bipartisan Honest Ads Act to update standards for political advertising and reduce the potential for foreign interference in future elections. The bill would mandate that all online ads include a disclosure statement identifying the ad as a political one.

Brian Benczkowski has been nominated to lead the Department of Justice Criminal Division, which is responsible for enforcement of all federal criminal law. His nomination is highly concerning given his history with Alfa Bank, the Russian bank under investigation by the FBI for potential connections to the Trump organization.

Lawmakers in the House and Senate have proposed several bills to close the boyfriend loophole, protect victims of stalking, and limit abusers' access to deadly weapons. Congress must act now to prevent perpetrators of domestic abuse from accessing deadly firearms.

Clark's career of fighting environmental protections and his history of opposition to common sense environmental regulation demonstrate that he can’t be trusted to enforce and protect the DOJ’s environmental laws. The Senate must oppose his nomination.

Donate now, and we will run hard-hitting billboards to show which politicians hate the Internet and support the FCC’s plans to destroy it. The public deserves to know which politicians are working to ruin the web ASAP.

Given the intensity of his promotion of Trump’s political interests as well as his reported clandestine collaborations, companies that sponsor Hannity’s show are essentially supporting financially a partisan operation. 21st Century Fox (Fox News’ parent company) has yet to hold Hannity accountable for his extremism, deceit, and reckless conspiracy peddling.

Call: Your 2 senators and 1 House Rep (lookup).

Script : Hi. I’m calling to ask Sen./Rep. [name] to support the bipartisan bill S. 1419/H.R. 2978 (the Voting Rights Amendment Act). Gerrymandering silences minority groups, so preventing racial discrimination in voting matters to me. I would like [name] to support voting rights and co-sponsor this bipartisan bill.

Script: ProPublica has revealed that Facebook allows rental agencies to create discriminatory ads that exclude people based on race, age, wheelchair use, and religion. Bias in housing is a violation of the Fair Housing Act. Please keep your word and bring your company into compliance with civil rights. (If applicable, mention you will stop buying ads if this continues.)

The Clean Power Plan is a set of policies and guidelines issued in 2015 under the Clean Air Act, the nation's longstanding air pollution law. The plan sets carbon emission targets for coal, gas and other power plants, and gives each state the ability to design their own methods to achieve them. If fully implemented, the Clean Power Plan is projected to cut carbon emissions by 32% nationally (relative to 2005 levels), save the US $20 billion in climate-related costs, and add $14-$34 billion in added health benefits. The shift toward clean renewable energy sources will also save the average American family money due to their overall lower cost.

The grassroots organizing in black communities by groups such as local NAACP chapters was more muscular than it had even been in the 2016 general election.

If we are going to win in 2018, we need to read the writing on the wall. All-of-us must stop ignoring this key voting block.

Coast-to-coast and across party lines, states are taking advantage of renewable energy, such as as wind and solar; energy efficiency; as well as electric vehicles, and embracing the health and economic benefits that come along with a clean energy transition.

Now more than ever, continued state leadership is necessary to keep up this nationwide momentum. Write your state legislators today and tell them: keep accelerating on clean energy!

It’s like, IndivisiSchool. At each two-day Regional Institute, Indivisible group leaders will receive core organizing trainings, improve connections and collaboration with other groups, and deepen their sense of shared purpose as part of this movement. The Institutes will be aimed at these two two goals:

1. Increase capacity to lead civic engagement actions and campaigns through skills training on organizing, developing campaign strategy, and creating a stronger sense of shared purpose;

2. Improve collaboration within and between groups by teaching techniques for creating shared decision-making processes within groups, building relationships in person, and developing tangible, joint actions.

North Korea has now tested its sixth and most powerful hydrogen bomb, prompting an emergency session of the United Nations Security Council. Given the extremely volatile nature of the situation, and that North Korea has intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of hitting major U.S. cities, we need measured leadership that leverages every diplomatic tool to de-escalate tensions—not reckless tweets that fuel the flames. Ask your Members of Congress to do everything they can to stop Trump from leading us into nuclear war.

TacSwipe is designed to let people buy and sell guns and gun accessories to strangers in their area -- no questions asked. The app provides no information for getting background checks -- leaving it up to buyers and sellers to do the right thing. In fact, they don’t even mention background checks at all - not even in the terms and conditions where the developers try to absolve themselves from anything that happens with items sold on the app. And, while the app recommends that you don’t download it unless you are 17 or older, there is no way to prevent this - and in most areas, you need to be 18 to buy a gun.

Apple and Android have rejected many apps before because of simulated violence. Tell them today to reject this app that could cause real-world violence and even death!

After a decade of uncertainty created by the Supreme Court and the previous administration, the Obama administration finalized a rule to protect 60 percent of the nation’s streams and millions of acres of wetlands including the drinking water supplies for more than 117 million Americans.

Unfortunately, the President is determined to put the interests of polluters ahead of clean water, including the quality of the water your family drinks.

Entrepreneurs, researchers, innovators, and citizens rely on public government data for everything from making business decisions and calculating college costs to forcasting weather and helping farmers. Taxpayer dollars fund this data's collection, and in return, the public should have the right to access and use such data. As Senator Gardner stated, "Once data has been published and made available to the public, it should remain available to the public."

Yet too many of our elected officials deny the science of climate change. Along with their polluter allies, they are blocking progress in the fight against climate change.

Find the deniers near you—and call them out today.

We need your help to continue providing these resources and developing new tools to turn this country blue again.
