SUMMARY:"We Ain’t Buying It” Economic Blackout
DESCRIPTION:With the holiday season approaching\, let’s make our dollars count. \nWe have power as consumers and we can leverage that power to protect our democracy and send a powerful message to companies: When you support Trump\, we don’t support you. \nJoin the We Ain’t Buying It campaign and take action over Thanksgiving to pressure companies to stop colluding with the Trump administration and enabling their authoritarian overreach. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nOUR TARGETS:\nWe’re focused on companies that are capitulating to the Trump administration and going along with their harmful\, authoritarian policies. \nTarget caved to Trump and rolled back their diversity\, equity\, and inclusion policies.\nHome Depot has done nothing to protect immigrants in their stores as ICE continues to conduct violent raids on their property.\nAmazon has funded the Trump administration through donations and discounted government contracts (including for ICE)\, all in exchange for massive corporate tax breaks.\nThese corporations think that they profit when they go along with Trump’s attacks on our democracy. But we can make it clear that there is a price to pay for enabling authoritarianism. \nOUR ASK:\nOur ask is simple: Target\, Home Depot\, and Amazon must stop undermining our democracy by collaborating with\, and enabling\, the Trump administration. Reinstate their DEI policies\, refuse to cooperate with ICE\, and withhold funding to Trump’s authoritarian regime. \nTAKE ACTION:\nJoin us for a full Thanksgiving black out. From Thanksgiving Day through Cyber Monday (11/27 – 12/1)\, don’t buy anything from Target\, Amazon\, or Home Depot. Don’t give any money to the companies that are undermining our democracy. \nInstead\, support small\, local businesses or mutual aid efforts in your community. \nWHY THANKSGIVING WEEKEND?\nThanksgiving weekend is a peak shopping time. Last year\, more than 196 million Americans shopped over the holiday weekend. So it’s an opportune time to send a message to Target\, Home Depot\, and Amazon: if you collaborate with Trump\, we won’t shop with you. They’ll be forced to take notice when they don’t get the record numbers of shoppers they’re anticipating. \nSOCIAL MEDIA + GRAPHICS\nYou can generate posts for various social media platforms using SoSha templates or Canva templates specifically for Instagram. \nYou can find additional promotional graphics here. \nRESOURCES\nLearn more about this campaign at weaintbuyingit.com. \nIf you have any questions\, feel free to reach out at pillars@indivisible.org

SUMMARY:IDEM needs to hear our voices!
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDespite an ongoing petition and letters from city officials requesting an extension of public comment and a public hearing on the Project Maize air permit for backup diesel generators\, IDEM has failed our community yet again and scheduled a public meeting for December 9th. \nA pubic meeting\, unlike a hearing\, does not admit our comments into the public record. Even though the air permit is over 100 pages long and difficult to understand\, IDEM has refused to extend our comment period. This is an egregious dismissal of our right to understand and comment on a permit that will affect the air quality of an already impacted community. \nWe will not let them ignore us! We need to pack the house for this public meeting and provide written comments that must be entered into the public record. WE NEED YOU THERE! \nSave the date: Tuesday\, December 9th\, 6 PM at the Michigan City High School Auditorium. \nRegister at this link: https://mobilize.us/s/ZQ2KYU \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Support Starbucks Baristas
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’re writing from The Labor Force because the Starbucks Unionization campaign has reached one of the most important moments since workers first stood up and demanded the respect they deserve. \nBaristas across the country are organizing a mass flying action on December 15th — a coordinated escalation to show Starbucks that workers and customers are united\, and we won’t back down until a fair contract is won. \nAnd to build the power we need\, we’re bringing together supporters everywhere for a National Mass Mobilization Call on December 14\, plus volunteer phone banks leading up to the big day. \nThis is the moment where our solidarity needs to be loud\, visible\, and undeniable. We need you with us. \nStep 1: RSVP for the Mass Mobilization Call — December 14\nA live briefing from organizers\, baristas\, and leaders in the movement. \n  \nJoin the Call »\n  \nStep 2: Join the Flyering Action on December 15\nThis is the big one. Be part of a national collective action to stand with Starbucks workers fighting for a fair union contract. \n  \nFlyer with Us Dec 15 »\nWorkers are showing tremendous courage. Together\, we can match it with tremendous solidarity. \nIn the fight\, \nThe Labor Force Team \n  \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
