Support Veterans and VA Workers
Ann Arbor Indivisible, the VA union, and other unions will picket the VA Hospital in Ann Arbor on Wednesday 17 September to bring attention to the plight of veterans and VA workers.
President Trump’s attack on the VA union is an attack on all Americans who want to be treated fairly at work. It's also an attack on veterans’ healthcare because of the firings and budget cuts. And so we will picket the VA to support them, and demand that the House pass the Protect American Workers Act, H.R. 2550.
If passed, H.R. 2550 would restore the union’s collective bargaining agreement. A discharge petition to require a vote on the House floor needs only two more signatures.
President Trump illegally terminated the collective bargaining agreement between the VA workers’ union and the Veterans Administration. He also cut the VA’s budget and fired VA workers. This has weakened VA healthcare for veterans, and VA union members now have no contract to protect them from arbitrary VA actions and ensure a good working environment.
Bring your signs and your friends!
When: Wednesday 17 September 2:30-4:30 PM
Where: Ann Arbor VA Hospital 2215 Fuller Road, Ann Arbor

Good Trouble Lives On!
Target abandoned its DEI programs,
so we picketed Target for their return.
On July 17th, Ann Arbor Indivisible made good trouble at our Target picket! We chanted, sang, recruited, and asked Target to fulfill the promises it made to the Black community in the wake of George Floyd’s murder. DEI is Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
Tricia Paff (AFGE), Yousef Rahbi (Washtenaw County Commissioner), and Carrie Rheingans (State Representative) inspired the crowd, as did the honks and cheers of rush hour drivers.

Parading Against Trump
Ann Arbor Indivisible’s marchers had fun at the Ann Arbor Independence Day Parade! Crowds applauded our “No Kings Since 1776!” and “Slow, block, defeat Trump” signs and banners. It was a perfect summer morning for marching, chanting, singing, handing out candy, and spreading the word that we are helping to build a massive, broad-based, non-violent movement to challenge Trump. Join us using the red "Join AA Indivisible" button above.
We had a great No Kings march in Ann Arbor!
No Kings Day was fantastic in Ann Arbor! We helped to organize this event where over 7,000 people rallied and marched! Over 2,000 No Kings events around the nation said to the would-be king in DC that we are standing up for American democracy, and rejecting his dictator-style $45 million birthday parade and the rest of his corrupt and authoritarian regime. We don't do kings in the USA!
No Kings Day in Ann Arbor
Help make No Kings Day the biggest protest so far against Trump's corrupt and illegal regime! If enough of us organize, we can bring down a dictator. Join Ann Arbor Indivisible with the red button above.

Everyone wants a secure retirement. Over 70 million people receive benefits from Social Security, and many depend on it to live. Maybe your grandmother? Father? Yourself?

DEMAND THE RELEASE
OF MAHMOUD KHALIL
💥 ACTION 💥
Urge our Senators to demand the release of Mahmoud Khalil, legal permanent resident and a soon-to-be master’s degree graduate at Columbia University.
Introduction
Mahmoud Khalil is a legal permanent resident and a soon-to-be master’s degree graduate at Columbia University who has been advocating for the school’s divestment from Israel. Khalil has been arrested in New York City by plainclothes DHS agents who barged in and claimed the State Department had revoked his status as a legal permanent resident (green card). Khalil, who is married to a very pregnant American citizen, was arrested with no verifiable judicial warrant, taken to an ICE facility, has not been charged with a crime, and is now detained in Louisiana.
Representative Debbie Dingell has signed a letter, along with 105 other Members of Congress, demanding answers from Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Department of State Secretary Marco Rubio regarding the detention of Mahmoud Khalil and stripping of his Green Card.
Action
Call and email our Senators to urge them to demand the release of Mahmoud Khalil.

BOYCOTT TESLA!
Ann Arbor Indivisible is calling for a boycott of Tesla, and asked its supporters and the public to picket the Tesla dealer on Jackson Road on Friday March 14. About 470 people answered the call! Unelected billionaire Musk is illegally and unconstitutionally damaging the government and abusing workers, but we can fight back with a boycott. Consider another EV. There are others just as good. Let's help to drive down Tesla's car sales, profits, and stock prices. Maybe the stockholders will fire Musk.

Suggested Shorter Script 1 -- Please choose this script if you have no preference.
Hello, my name is [NAME], and I’m a constituent in [CITY]. I’m calling to tell Senator [NAME] that I disapprove of [HER/HIS] YES vote on S.5, the Laken Riley Act. This Act would impose mandatory indefinite incarceration based only on accusation, without due process. I would like a reply explaining [HER/HIS] vote. My email is [EMAIL].
Thank you.
Suggested Longer Script 2
Hello, my name is [NAME], I’m a constituent in [CITY], and I’m a member of Ann Arbor Indivisible. I’m calling to tell Senator [NAME] that I disapprove of [HER/HIS] YES vote on S. 5, the Laken Riley Act.
Voting for this unconstitutional bill will aid Trump by allowing him to claim bipartisan support for it, when we need him to own it.
The bill would impose mandatory indefinite incarceration on any undocumented person who has merely been accused of burglary, theft, larceny, or shoplifting-related offenses, making it easier to criminalize and target all noncitizens. It’s bad policy that demonizes all immigrants and opens the door for more harmful and dangerous rhetoric about immigration. It will only serve to dehumanize and harm immigrant communities. We don’t have to guess what Trump and his allies would do with this new enforcement authority.
Senator [NAME] cannot allow Republicans to exploit the tragic death of Laken Riley in order to sow widespread fear and distrust of immigrant communities. That’s why I disapprove of the senator’s vote, and would like a reply with an explanation. My email is [EMAIL].
Thank you.
