INDIVISIBLE Guide updated "The Offense".

https://indivisible.actionkit.com/mailings/view/37055?t=15&akid=37055%2E232934%2E8v8CHJ

Short-version: Now that we won a ton of elections(!), we're launching two new, big guides outlining the Indivisible strategy for the next two years. Indivisible on Offense demystifies what the new Democratic House Majority means, and how you can use it to make your voice heard. Our new state guide describes how to take the Indivisible philosophy and push for state-level policy change with your state representatives. Read our note below for how we got here.

Rachel Maddow announced this last night ton her MSNBC show. INDIVISIBLE is now updated for Dems who want to move forward in strength and numbers. You can get info and download the guide at the link.

RESISTANCE IS PATRIOTISM!

On our area, we have talked about the necessity of letting our conservative Democrat, Dan Lipinski, know that we are watching him, and we are voting. He barely won over his challenger, a very progressive woman named Marie Newman.

My view is that we need to appear at his very few local meetings, and if he refuses to engage, perhaps more action will be needed.

They were instrumental in getting Issa out by standing outside his office every week for over a year. They have also been organizing protests/rallies, GOTV, town halls, etc. I am so impressed with their level of professionalism, determination, time, and so on. It took my local group no time at all to get organized after the first guide came out. I am in awe of them.

Our church based group has also been active in local protests and election work. Tomorrow we will be speaking at an event and noting that the actual Nazi than ran for Congress in our area won over 56,000 GOP votes.

All I can find is Google Docs - not terribly useful to read on my phone or tablet when I'm not connected to the 'Net!

Big Box/blue picture on the left "read the guide". I tapped it and it asked me if I wanted to download it and I hit YES. I am a moron with tech so that is all I can come up with, sorry.

On my laptop, I had to choose Download, click on the only option Google Docs, and then wander through the Google Docs menu to find the Download option. Not user friendly, but at least I have my copies now!
