Indivisible Rural Caucus

Hello Indivisible Red & Rural Caucus, 

Thank you again to everyone who joined our first Red & Rural Caucus call of 2026. It was wonderful to connect with organizers from across the country and spend time thinking about the work ahead. During the call, we shared updates on what’s happening at Indivisible, reflected on insights from our 2025 caucus survey, and discussed how rural organizers can plug into the No Kings campaign and upcoming mobilizations. Check out the recording below.

NO KINGS 3 Host Resources  

As you know, we’re gearing up for No Kings 3 on March 28th, and many of you will be hosting rallies in your communities. Based on the feedback from your survey responses, we’ve compiled a list of resources to help make your event a success.  Check them out below.

Coming Up 

Our next cal will be on April 14th at 7:30 PM ET. We’ll hear from rural No Kings hosts about lessons learned from their events, share practical tools for sustaining rural organizing and expanding local networks, and reflect on next steps for building community power. We can’t wait to share this space with you!

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.

Take Action Now

Republicans are once again pushing for a series of voter suppression bills—all variations of their infamous “SAVE Act”, which would create unnecessary obstacles for millions of eligible Americans trying to register to vote. 

Take Action Against Voter Suppression

Congress is negotiating new funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) at a moment when ICE and CBP are inflicting real harm on communities. This resource breaks down what we’re demanding and how you can take action.
