Write or call Mayor Greg Stanton 
Phoenix is proud to have a strong anti-discrimination ordinance. Protecting the civil rights of our residents is the right thing to do, but it's also good for business and our economy.  Let’s send a thank you to Mayor Greg Stanton who stood together as we pushed for progress at the UNITY & PRIDE EVENT.  Phoenix won't take a backward step on civil rights for our LGBTQ community.
Thank Mayor Stanton for his leadership in protecting the civil rights of ALL our city's residents.

FOOD for hungry school-aged children this summer
If you know of a school-aged student in need of breakfast and lunch this summer, simply text FOOD to 877877 and receive a message back to the closest place where they can get free summer meals.

This program is there for ALL kids, and this is one of the programs that makes our country great!

HEALTHCARE Needs Our Help

Because of the work of Indivisible groups across the country, it took the House five months to pass TrumpCare—something that every political insider thought would only take a couple of days. Now, the Senate is working behind closed doors to decide the future of healthcare.
The next few weeks will be critical. Call or visit your two Senators and urge them to reject any bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Tell them to vote NO on TrumpCare. Try to incorporate a personal story if possible.

From IndivisibleGuide.com:

Now is the time to defeat TrumpCare. Senate Republicans are planning a TrumpCare vote this month. Nobody knows how it will go—we can win this. To help, we have brand new resources to help you tell your Senators to stop TrumpCare:
Use this script to tell your Senators to Stop TrumpCare and protect the care of 23 million Americans.

Use our new state-by-state map of the impact of TrumpCare to inform your calls, letters to the Editor, and conversations with your MOC's.
While we hope you will call every day, be sure to call on
Wednesday, June 14 is National Senate Call-In Day to stop TrumpCare
