What if I told you there was a way to get involved in politics that doesn't feel icky, and actually helps us win? There is — it's friend-to-friend organizing and Red Wine & Blue helps women like us do it so well. Watch Katie Paris's TED Talk about why it works, and how it's way more fun than traditional politics! This clip is a sneak peek, and you can watch the full talk at the link. Then, let's get to work and make a difference right now in the midterm elections!

I am so disappointed in Target. Local organizers in their corporate hometown of Minneapolis asked them to stand up against ICE — and Target ignored them! So this year, I'm taking my back-to-school shopping dollars somewhere else. Join me and educators nationwide who are pledging to skip Target and shop with our values this year. Read more and sign the pledge at the link.

The Supreme Court just took away legal protections for 300,000+ immigrants who can't safely return home due to war, violence, or humanitarian disasters, and Trump wants to deport them! We must demand that Congress protect our neighbors. This form makes it easy — wouldn't you want people to speak up for you?

Have you head about this? The FCC wants to require family-focused TV shows to add a warning label if they include LGBTQ+ characters or themes! Diverse representation in TV shows accurately reflects American families — that is not dangerous and does not need a warning label! Please join me in supporting inclusive TV shows by telling the FCC to stop their proposal of this discriminatory rule. This link makes it easy.

Extremist politicians are ordering school superintendents to testify in front of Congress just for having policies that promote welcoming and inclusive schools! I just signed this petition to say that congressional hearings shouldn't be used to bully school leaders. Join me in standing up for kids, educators, and welcoming schools!

The Supreme Court just gutted the Voting Rights Act and states are already scrambling to change their voting districts before this year's elections. We have to stop these attacks on our voting rights once and for all. Join me in sending a message to Congress to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act! This link makes it super easy.

I just learned that governors are being asked to sign on to a nationwide school voucher program that will take funding away from public schools, and the program doesn't even have all its rules and regulations figured out yet! Join me in telling our governor to opt out, or at least wait until we know all the facts before committing our state to this program. Our kids and our public schools deserve more thoughtful consideration.

Our states should not be handing our private data over to ICE! Join me in sending a message to your governor and state representatives today. This form makes it easy to tell them to stop ICE from accessing our driver's license and motor vehicle data!
