Dear Indivisible Roseville members,
We learned during Trump 1.0 that events which demand our attention and action will be occurring constantly. Trump 2.0 is FAR worse - chaos designed to overwhelm us and create feelings of helplessness. But we are far from helpless and will not give in. Democrats across the country are organizing in protest and resistance on a daily basis. We are standing up for those most impacted and demanding action from our elected officials. We are on the phones and in the streets, getting loud, and the world is paying attention.
Stand with Ukraine!
The appalling attack on a leader of an allied sovereign nation by the sitting president and vice president of the United States was horrifying to all Americans of good conscience. Liz Cheney expressed the outrage well. "Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine. History will remember this day—when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for.”
UKRAINE ACTIONS
Call your Members of Congress (MoCs) - Members of Congress must forcefully condemn both the behavior as well as the Trump agenda of siding with Russia over Ukraine. Phones should already be ringing off the hooks across the nation. Please call your three MoCs ASAP with the following asks.
If your MOC is a Republican - Say some version of, "Enough is enough. Republican members of Congress must publicly rebuke the President and Vice President for their behavior and agenda in the meeting with President Zelenskyy. We will remember what side you are on when we vote in 2026." Add your own personal reactions for extra impact.
If your MoC is a Democrat - Say some version of, "I call on the Democratic Caucus to host a multi-speaker press conference immediately to ensure strong media attention for the democratic response to the Trump/Vance attack on President Zelenskyy in the Oval Office." Add your own personal reactions for extra impact. Note: Check first via an internet search to see if your rep has already issued a personal statement and, if so, express your thanks.
Support Ukraine via social media
For those with social media accounts, please post graphics supportive of Ukraine such as the one pictured above. You will find many options by searching under, "I Support Ukraine."
We will keep you apprised of additional ways to support Ukraine as we learn more next week.
