Tuesday, December 5 - No Labels is a Threat to Our Democracy / Chicago Chanukah for Ceasefire 12/7

Action You Can Take Today

Action 1: No Labels is a Threat to Our Democracy

In case you missed the recent memo from Third Way on how No Labels’ plan will re-elect Donald Trump, catch up here. But, here’s the TLDR: No Labels has made clear that their new plan is to put a Republican at the top of their “unity” ticket — and because they can’t win the presidency outright, they now plan to have power over the eventual nominee by denying both parties the 270 Electoral College Votes (ECVs) they need to win, throwing the decision about who becomes the next president to the House of Representatives, and ensuring a second Donald Trump term.

Their strategy is dangerous — and with the news that they’ve secured a place on the ballot in North Carolina, Alaska, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, Nevada, Oregon, South Dakota, and Utah — and have their sights set on all 50,  it’s time to sound the alarm and ensure voters see through their empty talk of unity.

Submit a letter to the editor now demystifying No Labels’ strategy for your neighbors and warn them about how dangerous it is for our democracy.

Action 2: Chicago Chanukah for Ceasefire 12/7

During Chanukah, we remember a time of miracles; of light shining through horror, even when it feels impossible. On that first night, Jewish ancestors lit their menorah, not knowing what would happen the next night. And then the impossible happened, again and again.

This Chanukah, we come together to create light, say that every life is sacred, and remain grounded in humanity, even in the face of all the violence and despair. Fight for a future of freedom and safety for Palestinians, Israelis, and all people.

We need a ceasefire now, an end to the siege on Gaza, freedom for all being held captive, and a rededication to equality, justice, and lasting peace for everyone.

Join IfNotNow Chicago to light Chanukah candles, mourn for the dead, and rededicate ourselves to fighting like hell for the living. Come to Chicago Chanukah for Ceasefire on Thursday, December 7 at 7 p.m. at Welles Park (2333 W Sunnyside Ave)
