We have new members join almost every day so let's all get together to get to know each other. Of course, we'll talk politics! We'll also plot and plan for future actions, maybe even get crafty with some protest signs and postcards.

Whether we agree with their positions or don’t agree, our representatives need to hear from us.

Be sure to tell Senator Duckworth and Congressman Mike Quigley that you appreciate their no vote on the CR.    

Unfortunately, Senato Durbin voted with 10 other Democrats to approve the CR. 

You probably know that balance of the Wisconsin Supreme Courtis at risk. This election pits Susan Crawford, a current Wisconsin circuit court judge endorsed by all current liberal judges on the court, against Brad Shimel, a Musk-backed Republican who is currently a sitting judge. If Crawford wins, liberals will lock in their majority for at least three more years. We helped elect Janet Protasiewicz and let’s do the same for Susan Crawford.

Sign up for Wisconsin Wednesday Phonebank and/or Saturday Canvassing in Milwaukee.

Both our Senators are non-committal and need to hear from us before the vote. The phone numbers for their Washington offices are below. If you cannot get through, please send a fax, either directly, if you can, or by using the link to the free fax service below. Sending an email is also possible using the links below:

Let’s prove Tom Homan correct about Chicagoans being “too educated” about immigrant rights and join ILS as we canvass businesses in the 47th ward.  We will make sure they know what to do if ICE comes knocking. 

We'll share materials to help guide their response in case ICE arrives at their workplace, and that they can share with their employees.

Indivisible Chicago and the National Treasury Employees Union (NTEU) call on Congress to step up and protect the CFPB and vote NO on any budget proposal that does not require the Executive branch to maintain the CFPB.

By now most of us on social media have heard of this boycott of major retailers like Amazon, Walmart and BestBuy. Where did it all start and should you participate?

To learn more go here and here.

Despite the bitter cold, 50 hardy ILS members showed up to urge Congressman Mike Quigley to Hold the Line against Trump’s outrageous, cruel and illegal policies. 

Other Indivisible groups are also rallying at their US representatives.  Go here to learn more.

The Trump Administration is out of control, attempting to exercise a mandate they do not have to dismantle our government and harm our neighbors. They are attempting to take power from Congress by canceling federal loans and grants, firing nearly all workers at USAID, shutting down the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and giving unelected billionaire Elon Musk access to the Treasury and our personal information.

 Democrats cannot be complicit in Trump's coup.

ILS is already hard at work with postcarding, canvassing and phone banking to elect Susan Crawford, candidate for the Wisconsin Supreme Court, in the general election April 1.  Here are some other races to watch.

From Indivisible Chicago Alliance:

 Democrats must get on board and join us in actively opposing his administration. Democrats have to shut it down. No more allowing nominations to pass through the Senate as normal order. No more treating legislation as business as usual. We need our Senators to slow down the process of the Senate by every means they have at their disposal. This includes:
