ICE is dangerous. Call your reps. Demand they vote NO on any bill that doesn’t rein in ICE. Let’s FORCE MULTIPLY! Commit to talking to 2 friends who are upset but passive. Help them download 5Calls & become activists with you.
Action is STILL the antidote to anxiety.

Kristi Noem is unqualified to be US Secretary of Homeland Security. Under her “leadership”, our country is even more divided, violent, and dangerous. Call your reps and tell them to impeach her. Use the 5 Calls app: 5calls.org/issue/kristi...

PLEASE JOIN US TOMORROW ON THE OVERPASS, EXIT 16 OVER RTE I-95 (not the Merritt!). We’ll meet at 3 in the parking lot on Hendricks St. at East Ave & on the bridge 3:30-4:30.
MAKE A STATEMENT. Show up if you can. You don’t have to be a member of ReSisters! Just a concerned American citizen.

ReSisters were out on “our” bridge today—on a Tuesday—to commemorate the 5th anniversary of the Jan 6 insurrection. We joined Visibility Brigades all across CT the USA to get this message out & make sure that we never do forget that terrible day.

In 2022 a law was passed by Congress mandating a plaque honoring officers who defended the Capitol on Jan 6 to be hung in their honor. For 4+ years Speaker Johnson & Repubs have refused to hang it! It sits in storage. Waiting.
Call your Reps! Tell them IT’S TIME!

Insurance premiums are skyrocketing even as ACA tax credits just failed to pass the Senate again. The issue is back in the House NOW. So call your reps! Urge your friends with Republican reps to call theirs too. 5calls.org/issue/aca-he...

ACA premium tax credits will expire in three weeks if Congress doesn’t vote to extend! THIS IS GONNA HURT US ALL. Premiums will skyrocket. Millions will lose their health coverage. Use the 5Calls app TODAY and urge your reps to extend the credits.

This holiday season, shop local and support your community. Not the billionaires!
November 30, 2025 at 7:31 PM
BOYCOTTS WORK! From Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday, let’s hit the billionaires the only way they understand.
This holiday season, DON’T shop Amazon, Target, Home Depot, or other big corporate stores. DO support your locals retailers instead. WeAintBuyingIt.com

It’s the season for giving…back. Find your local food bank, food drive, or community pantry. Ask them what they really need. (It’s not always food.) Then, make it happen!
November 16, 2025 at 9:26 PM
GREAT AGAIN FOR WHOM…indeed.
Another chilly but worthwhile day out on the bridge. Next week, we move back to Wednesday. We’ll set up at 3:00. Out on the bridge from 3:30-4:30. Sign up here to join us: www.mobilize.us/ctdems/event...

First, the THANKS! Call your elected reps and local organizers to thank them for the hard work that resulted in last week’s incredible blue 🌊.
Then, the GIVING. Find and support a local food bank. Donate goods &/or funds to our friends and neighbors in need. Not sure how? Google “local food banks”.
