Join us for the March Rural Caucus Call!

Hello Raucous Rural Caucus, 

This month, we’re getting ahead of election madness by talking to you about one of the most important tools you have as a group: the ability to run an exciting slate in a red state or rural area. From accessing support and resources for candidates up and down the ballot through our Local Voices, Local Power program, to creating quick, translatable event pages through our tools to launch your electoral work, we believe there is boundless potential for exciting electoral events in every state. This month’s Raucous Caucus Call is all about laying the groundwork now in order to finish strong in November’s elections. Whether it’s red state wins in 2024 or building local power to chase bad actors down, this month’s call will help you make it happen.

Register now! We look forward to seeing you on March 27th!

8:00 PM ET/ 5:00 PM PT

Moments ago, Women’s March activists including our senior leadership were arrested while exercising their First Amendment rights to let the politicized Supreme Court know that, no matter what their decision is, we will make sure that medication abortion will be available to anyone who needs it.

We will never stop fighting the attacks on reproductive freedom. There’s no future but the one we make. We have to continue to build with our communities to make sure the justices, politicians, and the justices who are politicians, understand that women wield immense electoral and political power.

Cops declaring our protest illegal won’t stop us. We will continue to escalate as they do. Won’t stop until we win back all the freedoms they took.

We didn’t choose this fight, this fight chose us. Donate $10 monthly to help us fight and win for women and us all. 

In struggle,

Women’s March activists are taking to the streets right now to let the partisan Supreme Court know that, no matter what their decision is, we will make sure that medication abortion will be available to anyone who needs it.

When the people vote on reproductive freedom, we win. When the compromised Supreme Court decides, we lose. When the court no longer works in favor of democracy and upholding the Constitution, it is time for reform. 

Today, we are talking about this decision regarding medication abortion. Tomorrow, we will be talking about the IVF ruling in Alabama. Or EMTALA, the law that says that hospitals that receive Medicare funds must provide abortion care if it’s necessary to treat a medical emergency. 

We cannot let even one legal attack on our communities go unchecked. Fund the resistance! Click here to give $10 monthly to keep our movement strong. 

There’s no future but the one we make. We have to continue to build with our communities to make sure the judges, politicians, and the judges who are politicians, understand that women wield immense electoral and political power.

We didn’t choose this fight, this fight chose us. Donate $10 monthly to help us fight and win for women and us all.

Yesterday, I woke up to a text.

It’s something that I’ve become used to. Extremist right-wing men harassing women activists is nothing new. 

However, in light of the target that the Heritage Foundation has put on feminist groups’ backs in Project 2025, it’s important to believe these extremists when they target us.

Go to JezebelShenanigans.com to sign up for updates on all our upcoming actions!

This particular extremist has posted about me, spreading misinformation that would make me less safe and less welcome in the community where I live. His followers have referred to me as the Amarillo Women’s March Jezebel.

And well, if the shoe fits. 🤷‍♀️

am shameless in my fight against extremists attacking our freedoms, our constitutionally protected rights, and democracy itself.

You a wicked Jezebel? Yeah, you are. Take action with us here.

We are wicked smart, and completely up to the task of defeating these bottom of the barrel bigots together. Again. Just like we did in 2020, 2022, and 2023. 

And the time for us to be right back on our Jezebel Shenanigans is RIGHT NOW. On Tuesday, March 26, we will protest SCOTUS in defense of medication abortion.

You up for some #JezebelShenanigans? Click here to take action!

Next month, we will get back on our Jezebel Shenanigans again as we fight the attacks on EMTALA and democracy itself, as SCOTUS hears the case that will decide if an insurrectionist can run for the President of the United States. 

These are trying times. But it’s all of us against all of them. And we have more people on our side. Culture on our side. Science on our side. And tell the truth… Who do you really want to be with besides Jezebels in 2024? 💃

See you in the streets, and on the right side of history,

Rachel

Worms at Work

Gee whiz will mix with science and business strategy Thursday with Russ Davis and his team, Sierra Smith and George Gamoff.

The “gee whiz” will open our eyes to a world of worms used to treat hazardous chemical streams. The science will take over as we think about just how it works, where it works, and the variables that make the difference. And ask Russ about the business strategy. He right in the middle of replicating the science and pushing it to build new applications.

Join us Thursday evening.

Worms defeat PCB’s!

“This new permanent water filtering solution at our Walla Walla facility has been operating at full capacity for many weeks now, and the facility is compliant with their wastewater permit conditions within the time frame that was set by the city,” wrote Sacconi. (Refresco)

An understatement. Refresco was facing plant closure for failure to meet City of Walla Walla effluent requirements. The problems were low pH and elevated PCB’s, “as much as 43 times the regulatory limit.” COVID gave them breathing room to June, 2022. They came into compliance May, 2022…after six million dollars of fixes, none of which worked.

Worms kept Refresco in business in Walla Walla. Worms and ingenuity. Russ Davis provided both. Using BioFiltro technology developed in Chile, Russ engineered the solution that saved Refresco.

Russ doing business as Organix and now as Perca has done proof of concept work with the Department of Corrections Penitentiary in Walla Walla and now is bidding on the DOC contract.

These business references for vermifiltration are important because the whole idea is so implausible. And no one is better than Russ for telling the story.

Join us next week. Learn possibilities and limitations. Ask about the variables.

Run for State Delegate – 8th LD

8th LD Democrats, good evening.

To date, we’ve had five people sign up to become delegates to the state convention. We have room for 15 more.

We need you to join in.

This is our chance to influence the state party. Never before have all legislative districts had the same allotment of delegates — the west side always had us at a disadvantage. But now, if we can show up with other east side LDs like our brothers and sisters in the 16th LD, we can effectively put east side values into the state Democratic platform.

You do not have to travel — this convention will be hybrid, allowing you the fullest possible participation from the comfort of your home.

However, you still need to register. Head to https://wadelegateregistration2024.com/ to sign up by March 31. Email chair Jake Dorsey (dorsey.jake@gmail.com) if you’ve got 8th LD questions, or email delegateinfo@wa-democrats.org for specific questions about the convention.

Thank you for the consideration!

18. March 2024 · Comments Off on Indivisible WIN Redistricting April 6, 2024 · Categories: Elections, Recent Events

If you are concerned with fair representation in Washington state, we invite you to join Washington Indivisible Network (WIN) for a People First Redistricting presentation and Q&A on Saturday, April 6th – 10:30am-12pm on zoom.

The Soto Palmer v Hobbs Federal lawsuit declared a Yakima Valley district (LD15) discriminatory towards Latino voters. Redrawing this district may force the re.drawing of 12 additional legislative districts in central Washington. The State has deferred to the courts to draw the maps. The new maps must be finalized by March 25th.

Join Alison McCaffree, from the LWV, to learn more about the change in the boundaries and how we can make systematic changes to the redistricting process that assure communities have the best chance to elect the representative of their choosing in the future.

People First Redistricting 

April 6th from 10:30-12pm
