Income inequality erodes democracy.

Stand with workers striking for fair wages. Boycott Starbucks.

What's your favorite local coffee shop in Dane County?
While baristas are on strike, our job is simple: DON’T SHOP AT STARBUCKS.

They’re striking for fair pay and respect and we’re standing with them.

Show the billionaires our solidarity is stronger than their greed.

The Starbucks CEO earns 6,666 times more than the typical worker at the coffee chain.

Stand with the local baristas who are striking for higher wages. Boycott Starbucks and buy your coffee at a local coffee shop instead.

Take time today to cancel your Spotify.

Resubscribe when they quit running ICE ads.
Instead of Spotify, we're trying out apps including Tidal, Apple Music, Libby, Bandcamp, & the NPR app. What are your favorite sources for music, audio books, & podcasts?
Spotify is running ads recruiting more ICE agents to infringe our rights and terrorize our communities, so we’re calling on users to stop paying for or using the app until Spotify stops streaming fascism: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

When we all pay our fair share, there is more than enough for our families, neighbors, and communities to thrive.

Tax the rich.
Most of us work hard for our families, but the system has been rigged to redirect resources to the rich.

​Together, we can demand our lawmakers rewrite the rules so nothing stands in the way of us providing a great life for our families. Call your reps today.

Contact Senator Tammy Baldwin today and tell her no deals with Trump.

If yesterday's election results show us anything, it's that Trump is too much. We shouldn't cave to a wannabe king.

The vast majority of us are not living our lives in a Gilded Age.

Call Baldwin and tell her we need more than vague assurances.

We need affordable health care and food for those struggling to make ends meet.

Reports below that Tammy Baldwin is among a group of Democrats ready to cave on healthcare demands.

👉 contact her today at (202) 224-5653 or www.baldwin.senate.gov/contact to tell her you expect more than vague assurances in exchange for the sacrifices made to shutdown the government.
As the shutdown paints Donald Trump in a worse and worse light, some Democrats may be willing to fold over possibly empty promises from senate Republicans. From @ddayen.bsky.social:

Republicans are weaponizing hunger and health care in order to preserve tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.

It's obscene.
