RESIST DAY #35: What You Can Do Today

Resistance in your community, across the country, and around the globe

Thursday, February 23, 2017

  • Stand With Trans Students
    Tell your elected representatives to publicly condemn the Trump administration's attack on transgender students' civil rights.
    • Call (844) 241-1141 today; More details here.
    • Voice your support online (and see others doing the same) using the hashtag

  • Confront your member of Congress today... #ReclaimRecess Continues
    With congressional lawmakers in their home districts this week, the following tools have been established so you can find the Town Hall or public event nearest you:

    • Reclaim Recess -- The organizers behind the "Indivisible Guide" have created this online tool to locate (or create) upcoming actions, as well as a "Missing Members of Congress Action Plan" to help if your representative is dodging your concerns. On Twitter: #ReclaimRecess
    • Town Hall Project -- Just enter your zip code to find a Town Hall or similar event in your area.
    • Recess Resistance -- Organized by MoveOn members, another effort to hold lawmakers accountable. Check here for an event near you. On Twitter: #ResistanceRecess
  • Take the "We Will Replace You" Primary Pledge (and Get Your Elected Democrat to Do the Same)
    #WeWillReplaceYou continues its efforts to make sure Democrats are resisting Trump with everything they have. Learn more and take action here.

  • Tell Trump's secretary of education Betsy DeVos that you support teachers, not her attack on public schools
    The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) offered these example tweets:
    • @BetsyDeVosEd should support public schools and ensure we have the tools needed to do our jobs. #Pencils4Betsy #LoveTeaching
    • Educators spend hundreds of $ out of pocket every year on supplies for their classrooms. We #LoveTeaching, but need support. #Pencils4Betsy
    • Chalk, books, markers, gym supplies, tissues and paper. Our schools need basic supplies, @BetsyDeVosED. #Pencils4Betsy #LoveTeaching
  • Sign Up to Attend Event Defending ACA, Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security this weekend
    Our Revolution is helping to organize rallies in communities nationwide on Saturday 2/25. Find one near you (or create one) here.
