Action 1: Get Ready for the Feb. 28 Municipal Election
With Election Day fast approaching next Tuesday, February 28, Indivisible Chicago Alliance is calling its members’ attention to the dangers posed by mayoral candidate Paul Vallas. In an email sent today to all members this morning, ICA called Vallas a “dangerous choice for Chicago” and urged members to share Vallas’ disastrous record and extreme positions with family, friends and neighbors.
Also provided was a link to ICA’s guidelines for evaluating candidates and links to information resources on candidates for local police district councils who also are on the ballot.
Make sure you share this information with all your friends so we can fight for a more progressive Chicago!
Action 2: Give Your Energy to Wisconsin
Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race is the MOST IMPORTANT ELECTION many haven't heard about. Here we can help elect a Progressive, Judge Janet Prostasiewicz to fill an open 10-year seat on the Wisconsin Supreme Court. This would move Wisconsin towards more democracy and protect basic freedoms. Next year this Court is likely to hear cases contesting the extreme gerrymander of Wisconsin electoral districts; overturning the current 1849 law banning almost all abortions; and various restrictions on the ability to vote, enacted by the gerrymandered GOP legislature. YOUR TIME MAY MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN THIS ELECTION !
Canvassing door-to-door is one of the most effective ways to increase our voter turnout. Especially in a typically low-turnout election, our efforts are likely to have a
big effect. Come canvass before the April 4 election with an Indivisible Chicago Alliance group and our WisDem hosts. Indivisible Chicago Alliance will arrange car pools and canvassing partners and familiarize you with our canvassing tools. Our time will include orientation before canvassing. You will be invited to participate in our post-canvass debrief over lunch.
Join a canvass session:
Canvass in Ft. Atkinson-Jefferson Co. on Saturday, March 25, 9 AM-4:30 PM
WisDems and Bay View Indivisible Milwaukee Saturday Canvass in Milwaukee (Not affiliated with ICA)

While some of these Daily Actions come from our own work as Indivisible Chicago Alliance, others are from our many partners working to advance the progressive agenda. We invite you to join us in supporting their work. Postings from partners do not imply Indivisible Chicago Alliance endorsement of specific policies and positions.
