Good Trouble Inland Empire
"Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America." -- John Lewis I don't know if I'm the right person to start this, but I see a need for progressive activism in the IE. Let's start small and see what we can do! I'm passionate about the systemic issues, the ones that make it impossible to vote for the candidates I believe in; instead, I have to vote defensively, wasting a vote for change in the necessary effort to protect the rights we still have. I want to see rank-choice voting in every state, every state should sign the Interstate Compact, Citizens United needs to be overturned. If we can generate energy for these changes, we have a shot at actually making a difference!

Upper Valley Voices for Democracy
In Heather Cox Richardson's 7-29-2024 letter, she recounts the moments in US history when Americans have experienced revolutionary moments. She ended with this: "When President Joe Biden announced just a week ago that he would not accept the Democratic nomination for president, he did not pass the torch to Vice President Kamala Harris. He passed it to us." She continued, "It is up to us to decide whether we want a country based on fear or on facts, on reaction or on reality, on hatred or on hope. It is up to us whether it will be fascism or democracy that, in the end, moves swiftly, and up to us whether we will choose to follow in the footsteps of those Americans who came before us in our noblest moments, and launch a brand new era in American history." The choice in November is a referendum on the two and a half century history of this country. Will we continue the too-glacial pace of making this a more “Perfect union,” or will we throw it away in favor of an autocracy that will carry out an extremist far-right agenda? Project 2025 is the comprehensive transition plan to deal a death blow to democracy. It includes policies ready to be enacted on Day One, recommendations for top positions in government, and a database of loyalists prepared to fill positions previously held by civil servants. During the first Trump administration, the former president was frustrated by patriots at all levels of government from generals to bureaucrats who would not do his bidding because it violated sacred, often constitutional, norms. These obstacles will no longer exist. Furthermore, the Supreme Court in Trump v. United States granted immunity for anything Trump does if he regains office. Let's make sure that Project 2025 never happens!
