Action 1: Volunteer for Brandon Johnson
The time is now to end the parade of Mayors who put corporate interests ahead of people, protected failed policing policies, and perpetuated a city that works best for its wealthiest residents.
Brandon Johnson stands alone in this race as a leader whose progressive policies will create opportunities and a Chicago that works for us all. This is why the Indivisible Chicago Alliance Council has voted unanimously to endorse Brandon Johnson for Mayor.
His opponent, Paul Vallas, would trample civil rights with failed policing strategies, has a catastrophic record of mismanagement that runs educational systems into the ground, and is backed by right-wing extremists. He is a dangerous choice for Chicago.
Please click here for the news release we issued to announce our endorsement. It details the compelling case for electing Brandon Johnson to lead our city in a bold new direction.
Share the details about the exciting change Johnson will bring to our city, and make sure your family, friends and neighbors understand the importance of voting in this election.
But it’s not enough to talk about why we support Johnson and fear Paul Vallas’ extremist platform. With national MAGA donors pouring money into Vallas’ coffers, we must actively campaign for the policies we believe in. We have to do the work.
Sign up now to help boost voter turnout for Brandon Johnson by joining phone banks, canvassing, and other activities scheduled in the few short weeks before the April 4 runoff. Wear your Indivisible gear and look for our Indivisible leaders who will be there to support your work.
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 carpools 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)
Other ways to help:
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.
