Action 1: Tuesday Night Postcard Party TONIGHT
Come enjoy the camaraderie of writing postcards to voters in swing states with fellow Indivisible Chicago activists.
We're back at the Gideon Welles pub in Lincoln Square every Tuesday evening from 6:30 to 8:00pm, writing postcards to get our voters to the polls in November.
If you can sign up in advance, it helps us let our GW hosts know how many people to expect, but last-minute walk-ins are always welcome.
Feel free to bring your own postcards if you've already ordered them from Postcards to Swing States, or just show up and we'll provide you with postcards, scripts, address lists, and pens.
Donations are welcome, either monetary or in the form of postcard stamps. We look forward to seeing you there!
Other ways to obtain postcards
If you’d like to write postcards on your own or host your own gatherings, go to www.turnoutpac.org/postcards, click on “Sign up for postcards,” complete your order and you’ll be mailed your free postcards along with messages to write and voter lists. (Note: If you enter “Indivisible Chicago” to the optional question on the form, “Are you ordering for a grassroots group?”, we can also let you know when postcard parties are scheduled nearby. Postcards will be provided at the parties or you can bring the postcards you’ve ordered.)
Indivisible Evanston is also distributing postcards for the Postcards to Swing State Campaigns. There are two pickup locations in Evanston, one in Deerfield and one in Buffalo Grove. Sign up here.
Postcard writers are responsible for providing the postcard stamps (currently 53 cents), handwriting a short message and addressing the cards. The instructions include a specific mailing date in October, so you have until then to write the postcards.
Action 2: Training for Milwaukee Voter Project
There's still time to get involved with the Milwaukee Voter Project (MVP) and help to register voters in comfortable, indoor offices in Milwaukee.
We are a grassroots group of non-partisan volunteers who are working to ensure that all citizens, especially those in under-served communities, are registered to vote and are aware of upcoming elections. We register voters in warm, indoor offices (DMV’s) in Milwaukee disadvantaged neighborhoods and give citizens the opportunity to register to vote.
Training sessions last about an hour and are via Zoom.
Attend one of the next training on by sending an email to info@milwaukeevoterproject.org:

Action via Milwaukee Voter Project
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.
