I find this helpful because in some cases, especially if you live rural, there are no good choices.

But this helps you pick the lesser of two evils and sometimes that’s good enough.
Friends, we can’t let the perfect be the enemy of good, but we can be more selective about where we spend our coin.

If you're stressing out about tomorrow, there are now over 400 local immigration groups listed on this spreadsheet across all 50 states, DC and Puerto Rico - take a minute, find one near you, and commit to spending an hour volunteering with them.
To mark "Trump will declare a national emergency for mass deportations" day: here is the initial spreadsheet of our crowd-sourced *local* immigration advocacy/support organizations.

Please share widely, put to good use, and keep letting me know about more organizations folks can connect with.

The CEO of ASPCA, Matt Bershadker, makes $1,000,000+ a year.

He's made more than $7,000,000 since becoming CEO.

If you want your donations to help innocent animals instead of millionaires, give to your *local* shelter.

In 1979, Jimmy Carter installed solar panels on the White House. In 1986, Ronald Reagan tore them down along w/Carter’s clean energy funding.

This sums up the difference between the two men & political parties. Investing in solutions for the future vs canceling progress to score political points.
