Is it really another day in Jacksonville if we aren’t watching the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office get everything they want while real community services suffer?

What a time to zone out, right?
Trust us, we have choice words regarding Donna Deegan’s proposed budget. Throwing more money to JSO and increasing their pay while giving a shoestring budget to programs like parks, libraries, and housing services is WILD work.

Councilman Arias is perfectly happy to sell food from other cultures, but the people? He'd rather they starve.

Save the dates: 7/4 & 7/17, our next days of action! 🚨

On July 4th, 50501 chapters will be hosting a community day of action. Some will also be protesting on the 4th.

On July 17th, 50501 chapters will be organizing a mass mobilization in coalition with other orgs. Some may also host community aid.

We must DEMAND Mayor Donna Deegan veto bill 2025-0138 and prevent this horrible bill from becoming local law!
SPEAK OUT AGAINST HATE - VETO 0138!

What’s Scaredy Cat Carrico scared of THIS time?
You’d have an easier time listing what he ISN’T scared of! But lately he seems to be scared of Matt Carlucci! That’s right, a member of his own party! On May 30th, News4Jax posted an article regaling the tense event between these two council members.

We know it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. It’s easy to feel worn down by our democracy being chipped away.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE IN THIS FIGHT.

Look at this map of NO KINGS protests. There are OVER 1,800 in the US, South America & Europe! This is a GLOBAL stand.

Join us on JUNE 14th for NO KINGS ❌👑

Jax Deserves Better than for our voices to be silenced and our participation to be unwanted.
Jacksonville’s City Council has done everything but outright state that they don’t actually want to hear what their constituents have to say.

Where's Carrico?

This is one of the hundreds of times Kevin Carrico has not shown up to work while on the taxpayer's dime.

When you don't show up to work, you lose your job. When Carrico doesn't show up to work, he gets elected City Council President.

Make it make sense.

Jax Deserves Better than for our activists to be arrested for sitting down.
Let’s be clear--the people arrested at the city hall were not actively protesting anything.
