Thank you for all you do for us, Jess. I look forward to your emails every day. Tomorrow my mom and I will be attending a little Hands Off rally in our small rural Alaskan town. I don't know how many people will be there (probably not a lot) but I'm glad it's happening.
Update: about 70 people stood up in our red town in a red state (pop. approximately 3800). We got quite a few honks from people driving by, quite a few people who revved the engine menacingly, one who hollered "go trump!" out his window as he went by, and one who flipped us off. But the mood was generally positive and I got a couple more people to sign up for your newsletter.
I'll be attending a Community Pop-up Choir: Let the World Hear Our Song in Lancaster, PA. It is in support of LGBTQ+ community, Black and Brown community, and Immigrants. Next Saturday April 26th, I will be attending an Indivisible Event in Lancaster protesting Congressman NO SHOW Lloyd Smucker.
Why aren’t we hearing from North Carolina about the stoppage of FEMA funds? People there are still really suffering, but I haven’t seen anything about it. This was a red country during the election. We should be able to make progress there. Thanks for all you do.
One of the Republican reps. who signed the letter to Speaker Johnson to protect Medicaid was CA 22's Valadao.
He was one of the first to be targeted for pressure by Activate America postcards encouraging constituents to call him about medicaid, since more than half of the families in his community rely on medicaid for healthcare (I wrote around 30 of them).
Rob Bresnahan (PA), and Juan Ciscomani (Ariz.) who also signed this letter were also targeted by Activate America postcards on Medicaid.
Makes me feel good that the postcards may have helped push all three of them over the edge, hopefully the other Activate America campaigns will have similar effects!
Jessica Craven, I've never left a comment but I have to. I have to thank you. You help keep me going. And I in turn, help to keep others going. I'm just so grateful.
Dear Jessica - I LOVE your newsletter - THANK YOU. I'm hoping you may want to lift up this hilarious "ad" which offers help to those suffering from TESLA REGRET SYNDROME and which stars a few of my fellow actor friends in the Seattle area! I *think* it is produced by a group called https://www.troublemakerscommunity.org/ (I have just this minute found out myself about this group!) Anyway, here is the link to the video:
Tomorrow , I will attend a Day of Action (3:00-5:00pm) in Doylestown Pa and will be bringing a donation of toiletries and food for community pantries and shelters.
Thank you for the list of American Companies supporting Trump!
Unfortunately it leaves off Avelo Airlines which has signed on to do Deportation Flights for ICE. Any help spreading the news would be great. If anyone needs motivation to boycott them here is what the CEO had to say on the issue, a perfect example of choosing profit over human rights:
“We realize this is a sensitive and complicated topic. After significant deliberations, we determined this charter flying will provide us with the stability to continue expanding our core scheduled passenger service and keep our more than 1,100 Crewmembers employed for years to come," Avelo's founder and CEO, Andrew Levy, said in a statement.
A.k.a, we know it is morally wrong, but want the consistent source of revenue for "years to come"
Sorry everyone! The Reistbot code is PZMZQY! My bad.
Thank you for sharing my petition about NPR and PBS! Resist On!
Now that you've got the paragraph breaks in I will be sharing a lot of them! They're great!
What is the actual Resistbot code? PZMPQY didn't work and I want to sign it!
Try PZMZQY.
NM found it! PZMZQY
Do i have the wrong one in there?
Ack! Just fixed thanks!

Thank you!
You can email Senator Van Hollen to thank him if you are from any state. You just have to click off Maryland on the form.
He also has voicemail on his phone lines. My senators don't have the option of leaving a message. You have to call during business hours.

I want as many people to see it as possible and YOU can help make it go viral! Thanks for considering! Sincerely, Anne
That was fun!
Thanks - I think so too! Feel free to share!

Thanks for keeping our spirits up Jessica! I'm heading to a 50501 protest in Charleston, SC tomorrow
I have a question🖐️ have all the Dems confirmed no votes for the SAVE act? Because I'm not hearing or seeing things on that anymore.
Gary Peters (D-MI) JUST came out and said he will be voting no, joining Slotkin (other D Sen from MI). Great news today!
