These bills are not getting a lot of mainstream attention but those of us who work for nonprofits are tracking them. It is really important to keep the nonprofit sector free and clear, especially with the government sector on precarious footing. Please call!
Please call. Tell your family and neighbors to call. This is their second attempt at the nonprofit killer bill. If passed, it will allow Trump to have Treasury label any nonprofit that is politically inconvenient for him as “terrorist” to shut them up and mess up their funding.
As promised, updated scripts here for HR 9495, which will be headed back to the floor around Wednesday.
Yes, this is the bill that gives the Sec. Treasury powers to strip non-profits of their C3 status.
1. For House members,
2. For Senators,
3. For New Yorkers to call Schumer.

“Remember, progress is a slow and stubborn river.
It carves through stone,
not in haste, but with steady persistence.
And though some cling to the crumbling edges
of their outdated beliefs,
we will keep building bridges,
even as they try to burn them.”

Another must read that shows how we can do the four essential things: 1) Protect People 2) Defend Institutions 3) Disrupt and Disobey 4) Build Alternatives. Do what you are drawn to and #3 is the key. Fascist can’t Fascist when enough of us refused to cooperate. wagingnonviolence.org/2024/11/10-t...

An important piece about shows like SNL buying into (and perpetuating) the sexism rather than standing up to it. And why it matters.
I almost never write personal pieces. Here's today's, on:
*SNL's capitulation in advance
*why Bill Burr's hacky backlash was a betrayal by a comedy institution
* and how it feels to be a woman in America right now, awaiting the 2nd reign of Handsy McGrabsalot

Well said. Gossip often reveals more about the speaker than the subject. Surrounding ourselves with those who uplift rather than tear down is key.

Does anyone else notice that we’re picking ourselves up faster than 2016? We’re not astonished by the chaos because we expect it. We’re ready for this. Keep at it friends.
