The most important thing that needs to happen is everyone needs to get involved. If you’ve been looking for a way to participate but you aren’t sure what to do, here is a place to start. You can watch this weekly planning call recording with the Indivisible organizers and thousands of pro-democracy activists. I try to be on the live call each week so I can ask a question if I have one but if I miss the live, I never miss watching the recording. Ezra and Leah are incredibly good at this.
I’ve also posted Indivisible’s weekly homework of things you can do that are needed right now. That and links to resources are below the Zoom call. Also the link to RSVP to next week’s call. Join Indivisible IOWA on Facebook
Thanks for signing up for today’s What’s the Plan call with Leah and Ezra. If you couldn’t make it or missed any of the links we shared, no worries, we’ve got everything you need right here.
Spotify is running ads recruiting agents for ICE — the federal agency charged with the mass deportation and surveillance of immigrant communities. These ads target vulnerable populations, promise signing bonuses, and normalize fear and intimidation in our neighborhoods.

We are currently on day 30 of the government shutdown — setting a new record every day for the longest full government shutdown in history! If you haven’t already, check out the Stop the Trump Shutdown toolkit.
Starting in less than two days, on Saturday, November 1, over 22 million families who rely on the Affordable Care Act (ACA) will find out their health insurance premiums are going to more than DOUBLE next year unless Congress acts. Instead of averting these catastrophic price hikes, Republicans shut down the government and are refusing to negotiate a bipartisan deal to save healthcare and extend premium tax credits for people who use the ACA. Meanwhile, Trump is illegally withholding the SNAP benefits that more than 40 million Americans rely on to afford food.
To end the Trump shutdown, we need to call out this Republican Healthcare Heist and demand Donald Trump and congressional Republicans negotiate a deal to lower healthcare costs and fund our government!
