Remember the @indivisible.org national spending blackout from Wednesday, November 26th thru Cyber Monday, December 1st. Americans collectively impacting their bottom lines for even just a few days is noticeable.
AV, support local businesses in Lancaster and Palmdale. Shop at union grocery stores.
Since TG is close, AVDC is still having its food drive today! Just drive up to Transplants in Palmdale from noon to 2:00. You don't even have to get out of your car.
Donations go straight to Palmdale's SAVES, so we'll be out there. Drop by and share the info. You never know who you know in the AV!
We normally don't post events held by other organizations, but the AV Democrats for Change club is having a non-perishable food drive this Saturday at Transplants in Palmdale from noon to 2:00 PM. If you can drive by and drop off whatever you can, it would be greatly appreciated.
This should not happen at all, but it definitely should not happen without a fight.
There's an OLD BB King blues song, "The Thrill is Gone" that fits this situation.
Fighting UNITED? That's like returning to an abusive relationship because the partner says you're better together.
Sen Whitehouse, to quote BB, "we're free from your spell."
NEW: Jan 6 riot defendant arrested outside a Burger King in Cicero, Illinois.
Prosecutors allege a DNA test in August linked him to 2018 kidnapping and sex assault

We predict that #CA40 will be the Prop 50 district race to watch in 2026!
Under the new Prop 50 maps, Ken Calvert is now going to be in the same district as Young Kim. He has just announced that he will be running against her.
GOP v GOP. They're splitting the vote.
Can everyone cease using the phrase "Democratic party chaos"? The 2026 midterms are going to be insane.
California voters punched back in Trump’s redistricting war, voting to redraw the state’s congressional districts ahead of the 2026 midterms
You can track the official #Prop50 results here. At one point, YES was up to 68%. It will even out, but regardless it will be a DECISIVE win. Don't let anyone convince your community otherwise. That's designed to be voter suppression for 2026.

🪧 Greg Bovino has led the terror attacks against our communities here in Illinois. Protest outside Bovino’s court hearing & make clear that he + ICE + CBP aren’t welcome here!
Giving the government names of people who are exercising their First Amendment rights is disturbing. Even worse when it's a public university.

Lori Chavez-DeRemer: "When we're talking about the SNAP program, one of the other programs we're definitely concerned about is Unemployment Insurance. That will be the next thing that we have to be concerned about."

When everything gets to be too much, remember the great Rep John Lewis's words. If we ever want to get the John Lewis Voting Rights Act passed, first we have to get people to vote #YesOnProp50 until the polls close tomorrow.
Then prepare for the next fight to come, because that WON'T be the end.
Americans broadly disapprove of how President Donald Trump is handling his job, and a majority say he has gone too far in exercising the powers of his office, according to a Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll.
The Trump administration is ripping away SNAP benefits from millions of children.
House Republicans remain on a taxpayer-funded vacation for the sixth consecutive week.
You deserve better.
Translation for the Do Somethings out there. The ones knocking Jeffries. It's simple.
House GOP say "You can eat or you can go to the doctor. Not both. House Dems need to take what we're offering so THEN we can use our majority to make sure you can't do the other and keep our majority in 2026."
We're in GOTV mode! The absolute BEST way to get people to vote #YesOnProp50 is to talk to them. Canvassing is the most effective way to speak with voters. We now need to encourage them to vote in person. Come to this weekend's canvass, hosted by our friends AVDC!

Woohoo! More Supporters & Resisters for Yes on 50!
We will continue standing up against ICE.
Indivisible AV provided reminders today to vote #YesOnProp50 to the many commuting residents returning to LA. We will continue standing up against ICE invading SoCal and ALL American communities to terrorize our neighbors.
California, vote YES on Prop 50.
California, vote YES on Prop 50. Remember Rep John Lewis's words.
2026 premiums for many families are OUT OF CONTROL. Some in our community who aren't politically active OR liberal want House Dems to keep fighting to protect affordable health care.
We can win the fight. @ezralevin.bsky.social @leahgreenberg.bsky.social we encourage our Dem MOC to keep it up.
Can people PLEASE stop talking about the Nazi tattoo guy for JUST 5 MINUTES and talk about how you can help people in your state whose FOOD might be cut off? We need House Dems to stay the course. They may not be able to justify that.
People are starting to get 2026 health care enrollments.
NEW: North Carolina Republicans advanced a new congressional gerrymander that dismantles a historically Black-represented district by moving thousands of Black voters into GOP-leaning districts.
Former Rep. Eva Clayton called it “blatant discrimination.”
Everyone who has been ranting online about House Dems not doing anything:
They're doing something. It has very real consequences. Find a local food bank and ask how you can help. Maybe donate some money or canned goods this week.
House Dems need to stand firm and we all need to help them.
We are taking legal action to ensure Adelita Grijalva is sworn in. I will not allow Arizonans to be silenced or treated as second-class citizens in their own democracy.
