Join Seed the Vote to help influence voters in PA and other swing states
Tell the DCCC to start standing strongly with the Democratic Party instead of Republican-funded AIPAC candidates.
POSTCARDS
No matter who the Democratic Candidate is for President, losing is not an option. If we believe in our Democracy, we must stop Trump from returning to the White House. But there are Trump wannabe’s running for office in many states. Northwest Bronx Indivisible focuses on North Carolina. If we win in NC, our President will be a Democrat. Though we lost NC by a small margin in 2020, we think we can eke out a victory this year because the GOP candidate for Governor in NC is so toxic, Democrats will be energized to vote. With your help, we will elect Democrats up and down the ticket in NC by reaching out to infrequent voters reminding them to get to the polls.

It’s been one year since the federal Covid-19 public emergency ended and a massive ‘Medicaid unwinding’ began. During the height of the pandemic, states were barred by Congress from disenrolling Medicaid recipients from their rolls, but that came to an end last year. As a result, more than 20 million people lost their Medicaid coverage in the last year. About 1 in 5 people with Medicaid have been disenrolled, and nearly 1 out of 4 adults who were disenrolled are still uninsured today. Add your name to build pressure for Medicare for All!
Ro Khanna’s State-Based Universal Health Care Act would eliminate the “ERISA Problem” along with a number of other federal regulatory hurdles states might face in passing single payer systems. We should be pushing our New York delegation to sign on. Rep. Jamaal Bowman already has!

Take action to stop Project 2025 by working to take away their tax-exempt status!
Project 2025 would make it mandatory for high school students to take the military entrance exam -- and the Republican-led House has already passed a bill automatically registering men aged 18 to 26 for selective service. Let Congress know you oppose mandatory military service.
MAGA’s plan to install Christian Nationalism as the law of the land, dubbed Project 2025, is the terrifying end game we are fighting desperately to prevent in this election.
We have to make sure Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, and JP Morgan Chase can’t get away with hiding their funding of the Heritage Foundation and their support for Trump’s Project 2025. Demand Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, and JP Morgan Chase pledge no future funding of the Heritage Foundation and publicly denounce Trump’s Project 2025 now.
