Some of our generous members are likely to purchase pitchers of beer to share. If you want the salad bar or soft drinks, you are on your own for those items.

The Knicks are heading into Game 4 tonight with their season on the line.

After decades without a championship and a brutal Game 3 loss, fans aren’t showing up because of the box score. They’re invested in the people, the setbacks, and the chance to be part of something bigger.

Voters aren’t much different. Facts matter, but people remember stories.

That’s why we’re hosting a free virtual training on How to Connect with Voters Through Personal Stories TODAY.

Jalen Brunson didn’t just become an icon because of stats, it’s because of the story.

SAVE YOUR SEAT

In this session, you’ll learn to identify the moments in a campaign when a personal story is exactly what’s called for and how to tell one that resonates.

You’ll get hands-on practice with the Story of Self framework — our proven tool for crafting narratives that connect — and you’ll work on tailoring your stories to fit different audiences and purposes.

The only cost is an hour of your day, and you’ll walk away with real, implementable skills.

On Monday, thousands of people booed right in Donald Trump’s face at Game 3 of the NBA finals. Nobody needed a press release to understand the message. Hey, communication comes in all forms.

That’s why every campaign needs a communications strategy.

Florida man booed by crowd.

SAVE YOUR SEAT

Later today, we’re hosting a free virtual training on Planning Your Campaign’s Communications Strategy. This is the session where we get into the nuts and bolts of what a real comms operation looks like at the campaign level.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

  • How successful campaigns develop a message and identity that stays cohesive across every channel and conversation
  • How to set communications goals that are actually trackable, not just aspirational
  • How to build a plan for earned media and rapid response before you need one

If you’re the person on your campaign responsible for how you talk to voters, supporters, and the press (even if that’s just one piece of a much bigger job), this training was built for you.

Register now. This is the kind of session that changes how you think about the work ahead.

It’s rough out there. The onslaught of political bad news, senseless violence, misogyny, and racism is enough to make even the most seasoned organizers want to throw up their hands. These are the exact times– when we’re tired and feeling hopeless– that we can get curious and be intentional about how we sustain ourselves in this work.

We’ll explore these topics and more next Wednesday, May 20 at 8 pm ET at a SURJ mass call, “White people’s work to not give up: a conversation on strategy and staying for the long haul.” We’ll be joined by Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson, former Director of the Highlander Center in Tennessee and movement strategist, and Scot Nakagawa, the Director of the 22nd Century Initiative and leading political thinker, who have been movement leaders for decades and bring hard-won lessons about how we stay in it.

Register now

On the other side of guilt, shame or feeling like we need to make martyrs of ourselves is a joyful, steady commitment. We’re working to get there together.

See you Wednesday–

These are difficult times for immigrant communities, with harmful policies and practices continuing to shape people’s lives in profound ways. And in this moment, Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP) is working to ensure that strategic, persistent legal advocacy can deliver real and impactful wins.

After years of litigation, NWIRP and our partners in co-counsel recently reached a settlement with the federal government in our challenge to its secretive CARRP program—a system that delayed and denied immigration applications, disproportionately targeting Muslim immigrants and communities from the Middle East, South Asia, and Africa, often without explanation or recourse.

This is a significant victory.

The settlement—once approved by the court, likely at the end of June—will rescind CARRP. It reflects years of legal strategy, persistence, and the willingness by those directly impacted to persevere through an enormity of hardship.

But it’s not the end of the story.

Programs like CARRP don’t exist in isolation. They’re part of a broader system that relies on delay, detention, and other harmful tactics to control people’s lives. Challenging one piece doesn’t dismantle the whole, we know, but it creates an opening.

This kind of legal advocacy work is slow. It’s strategic. And it requires sustained collective support.

GiveBIG, Washington’s annual statewide fundraising campaign for nonprofits, begins today and runs through next Tuesday, May 5.

This is where you come in.

Your donation today would help sustain the work that makes outcomes like these possible. Because the systems that created CARRP are still with us, and the need for justice and accountability hasn’t gone away.

DONATE

Thank you for making this work possible. With you and so many others on our side, we can meet the challenges of today while helping build a more just system in its place.

With care and resolve,

Malou Chávez (she/her/ella)
Executive Director

Hello Indivisible Red & Rural Caucus, 

As February comes to a close, we celebrate Black history and its deep roots in rural communities, from farming and land stewardship to labor organizing, mutual aid, faith leadership, and civic engagement. These often-overlooked stories show how Black people have shaped rural life and democracy for generations and remind us of the power of organized communities, power we will carry into our work together in 2026.

First Red and Rural Caucus Call of 2026

We didn’t get a chance to connect in February, but we’re looking forward to seeing everyone next month!

Our next Red and Rural Caucus call will be a little different. We’re meeting on Saturday, March 7 at 2:00 PM ET, a change from our usual schedule to avoid conflicting with all the No Kings 3 trainings happening during the week.

The session will be facilitated by our Campaigns Director, Gracey, a fresh face to guide our conversation on the plan for 2026, and Tim, our Mobilization Director, who will explore how members can plug into No Kings while building power in red and rural communities.

Register below to receive reminders. We have many exciting plans for 2026 and can’t wait to see you there!

Register to Join Us on March 7 

NO KINGS 3 

We’re gearing up for the next round of No Kings protests, and we’d love to hear from you. Let us know whether you’re planning to host a No Kings event in your community, and what kind of support you’d need to make it a success. Whether you’re just starting to think about it or already organizing, we’re here to support you.

Dear MoveOn member,

This weekend, Trump launched military strikes in Iran without congressional authorization.

If Congress doesn’t act immediately, this unauthorized military operation could spiral into a full-scale war. Whether Congress authorizes it or not, most Americans don’t support the U.S. going into yet another costly war.

Congress must act NOW.

At 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT TONIGHT, MoveOn, 50501, and Win Without War are hosting an emergency movement call to break down what’s happening in Iran and the Middle East, what it means, and how we can apply immediate, collective pressure to stop this war.

On this call, you’ll get …

  • clear context on what’s unfolding
  • the stakes for our communities and the world, and
  • a concrete plan for our collective action.

Our primary demand: Congress must pass a bill to rein in Trump NOW.

This is a moment for movement-wide action. Join the call to get context, as well as concrete next steps in the weeks to come.

Join us online TONIGHT at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT. No more expensive, deadly, unauthorized, forever wars!

Thanks for all you do.

–Nakia, Alexis, Sara, Joel, and the rest of the team

One of the most common questions we get at SURJ is: how do I talk to other white people about racism? The truth is, there is no magic set of words to learn– it takes practice. Whether it’s at your family dinner table or your neighbors down the street, our work to break the racist, anti-immigrant lies the billionaire agenda deployed towards white communities has never been more important.

Can you join us next Tuesday, February 17th at 6 pm ET for the first training and phonebank in our series, “Talk to Our Neighbors, Crack ICE”? We’ll be training you to talk to white working-class voters in the key congressional districts that will determine control of the House in the 2026 midterm elections. Using a deep listening method where you’ll engage around shared values, we’ll talk to people about their feelings on Trump’s immigration policies and deployment of ICE, and then organize them towards seeing what they stand to gain in choosing solidarity over MAGA’s racism. 

>> Register to join us

Support for ICE is at an all-time low. And we know that working-class people have so much shared interest in rejecting racism and defunding ICE. As grocery prices skyrocket and basic healthcare services send families into debt, all of us– white people included– will be better off in a country where our government funds communities and not ICE terror.

Trump’s aggressive and violent deployment of ICE is causing many white working-class communities to re-evaluate their views and beliefs on immigration. Right now, we have a chance to turn towards these folks, bring them into a vision of shared interest, and get practice being in deep conversation with other white people about racism and immigration.

Join us on Tuesday to start laying the groundwork to defeat MAGA in the midterms, push the mainstream Democratic Party to take a bold stance on ICE, and skill up. If you can’t make it next week, there are many other dates and you can join at any time.

In solidarity,
