Quote of the Week: “In June, over 5,000,000 Americans gathered at more than 2,000 No Kings protests to take a stand against Trump’s rising tyranny. Saturday could be even bigger -- the biggest, loudest peaceful protest in modern American history…We'll win this fight for democracy if we stand together bravely, resolutely, and in numbers bigger than ever before.” – Ezra Levin, Indivisible National Team newsletter, Oct. 15, 2025 Get Out on the Streets:  Photo by zaya odeesho on Unsplash Want the scoop on upcoming rallies, marches, and related events?

Any ballots postmarked after 8 pm on Nov 4 are tossed out, and current post office systems jeopardize that. Instead, locate a designated ballot box and be sure to cast your vote during the state voting period Oct 18 – Nov 4. Sign up!
