Our goal isn’t just to eke out a slim House majority this year. It’s to win the midterms decisively—by margins too large to contest, with majorities too strong to fracture and powerful enough to govern—to lay the foundation for what comes next. That’s how we’ll build enduring Democratic power into the next decade.
Hands Off Our Vote is Indivisible’s national program to ensure all eligible voters get to cast their ballot, and that those ballots get counted. We’ll help you be ready to respond to any attacks, and we’ll shine a light on the bad actors threatening our basic constitutional rights. First meeting planned for July 30th.
VoPro Pros envisions a nation where every eligible voter can easily register to vote and cast a ballot, and where every election is conducted fairly.

Since the 2016 election, Indivisible has been dedicated to defeating Donald Trump and his authoritarian political project. Donald Trump rules as a wannabe king, dismantling our democracy with a league of sycophantic enablers at his side. Empowered by techno-fascists, corrupt self-dealing billionaires, and corporate cowards, this regime is killing the American experiment with death by a thousand cuts. We need a real opposition party if we're to have any hope of not just fighting back, but of winning. The simple truth is, we don’t have time to deal with weak leadership. We need a unified pro-democracy movement, and we need the Democratic Party to be the leading edge of it.
Force Multiplier rigorously researches where your donations will matter most, continually tracking the political landscape and updating our recommendations as opportunities and threats arise.

Voting for your rights this election helps lay the groundwork to protect against these threats. The ACLU is here to ensure you’re prepared for the fights ahead. VOTE YOUR RIGHTS!
Why is voting important? It’s a question that seems obvious—but the answer is more complex than it appears. While a single vote is unlikely to decide an election, voting plays a critical role in shaping democracy, influencing policy, and signaling what matters to the public. In other words, voting matters—even when the outcome isn’t close.
Christine Brown, a leader with Indivisible Acton Area, presented a strategy at our June meeting, about working towards winning elections in 2026.
