Join us to phone bank to voters in Illinois's 12th district. We ask them to pressure their Republican rep to protect Medicaid.

 In Illinois this includes almost half of our children, two thirds of our seniors in nursing homes, and 40% of all pregnancies. MAGA wants to cut this and other essential services (like SNAP) so that they can continue tax giveaways to the ultra wealthy. They are trying to fool folks that this will “trickle down” benefits, though this has NEVER been shown to work.

 But this budget is NOT a done deal.

Across the country, the judicial system—once a pillar of democracy—is under coordinated attack. From stacking the courts with extremist judges to criminalizing dissent and targeting judges that uphold justice, the Trump administration and its allies are working to dismantle the rule of law and bend the judiciary to their political will.

Join us for a critical conversation on how our courts are being undermined and what that means for civil rights, reproductive freedom, immigrant protections, and democratic accountability. Legal experts, organizers, and elected officials will break down the current crisis and offer real steps we can take to protect the integrity of our courts before it's too late.

Join Indivisible Illinois to help us call voters in the 3 Republican congressional districts in Illinois to let them know that their GOP congressperson is planning to make deep cuts to Medicaid, and what that would mean for them and their communities. These congresspeople are: Mike Bost (IL-12), Mary Miller (IL-15) and Darrin LaHood (IL-16). You do not have to be an Illinoisan to participate. This is the plan of the congressional GOP caucus. This is in the works in all of our states. We can call voters in these 3 congressional districts as part of a bigger project to make calls to voters in other states as well.

If you have never phone banked before, we train. You will need both a phone and a computer for this phone bank.

Congress could create a national school voucher program—snuck into a larger bill giving tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy paid for with cuts for everyone else, including healthcare, Social Security and our public schools!

The proposed federal voucher program could funnel more than $10 billion in public dollars every year to private—mostly religious—schools. Private schools can and do discriminate on the basis of LGBTQ+ status, disability status, religion, and more. In contrast, our public schools must educate all kids. But even though 90% of all kids in Illinois attend public school, the majority of our public schools still aren’t adequately funded!

Illinois just ended a state school voucher program (“Invest in Kids”) last year that sent millions of tax dollars to religious schools that discriminate. Help us stop vouchers from coming back to Illinois via a national school voucher program!

The US House has a Republican majority by only the slimmest of margins, and the truth is, most voters, including most Republicans, want more money for public schools, not for private school vouchers.

We'll be calling into Republican Mike Bost's district (IL12) to urge his constituents to call him to express opposition to any national voucher program.  Bost has been identified as one of a few Republicans nationally who may be moved to vote against legislation for a national voucher program.
