Quote of the Week:“Early voting has begun in many states across America. Our energies should be directed to voter turnout—especially those who are undecided about voting and those who did not vote in 2020. A particularly fruitful source of votes for Kamala Harris and Democrats is younger voters, who tend to favor Democratic and progressive candidates. If there are any young voters in your lives, help them register and encourage them to vote. But don’t stop there! Be a nudge to everyone in your lives and remind them to vote!!”--Robert Hubbell, Today’s Edition Newsletter, Oct. 11, 2024 Help Our Candidates Win! Now’s the time to support our candidates!

The important thing is that you DO SOMETHING! So let’s do it! Click here for Olympia Indivisible Campaign Support Calendar Federal Action:Stand with Amazon Workers Photo Source: Wikimedia Commons. ,by Joe Piette Current and former Amazon workers are exposing the injuries and injustices they've endured—and demanding accountability. Since July, they’ve urgently requested a meeting with Amazon’s VP of Global Workplace Health & Safety, Sarah Rhoads, to address the company’s injury rate, which is more than double the industry average, and their experiences of being silenced and discarded after on-the-job injuries. They’ve been mauled by dogs, forced to work through torn ACLs, suffered miscarriages and amputation. Some have family who lost their lives working at Amazon. Many were denied medical help, fired illegally, and pushed into poverty and homelessness by Amazon’s refusal to honor workers’ comp claims. Amazon refuses to listen. On July 15, injured workers tried to deliver a letter with their stories to their NY office and were shut out, denied even the chance to step inside the building. This must stop. Amazon workers are counting on you to stand with them. Action: demand Amazon meet with their workers and take action to protect them. Local Actions:Sign up to Sign Wave!
