SUMMARY:Help flip the House.
DESCRIPTION:Hold Republicans accountable in rural and small town America! \n\n\n\n\n\nThe path to a House Majority runs through rural and small town America. \n\n\n\nThe Idea: The Rural House Accountability Project \n\n\n\nHelp Flip the House in the 2026 midterms by highlighting the impact of recent federal policies and budget cuts on rural and small town voters in House districts currently represented by Republicans\, and promoting popular policy alternatives. \n\n\n\nThis can be most effectively done by using hyper-local media to amplify the voices of real people in these communities whose lives and families have been hurt by Republican policies and actions. The specific districts are IA 01\, IA 03\, PA 07\, PA 08\, PA10\, and WI 03. \n\n\n\nHow it works \n\n\n\nThe project has four parts:  \n\n\n\n\nGenerate hyper-localized messaging about the consequences of Federal cuts and policies using voices of trusted local messengers. For example\, in WI 03 a video of a nurse about the danger of losing a local rural ER; in IA 03 a video about the cuts killing broadband funding. \n\n\n\nRecruit and train at least 12 rural creators and storytellers in partnership with RDI organizations on the ground in each district focusing on: parents\, educators\, small business people\, veterans\, farmers\, small-town mayors\, nurses\, and other working people.\n\n\n\nDistribute content across a selection of Real Voices Media’s 500 Facebook and Instagram pages such as Standing Up for the Working Class\, and Our Part of Iowa\, RDI partner organization social feeds\, and peer-to-peer distribution channels\, like church listservs and  neighborhood groups. \n\n\n\nIntegrate relational organizing to close the loops among content creation\, distribution\, and activation. \n\n\n\n\nWho is doing the work? \n\n\n\nThe Rural Democracy Initiative is convening the Rural House Accountability Project.  \n\n\n\nReal Voices Media builds local social media pages\, provides technical and digital media expertise\, and will take the lead in content creation\, training and distribution. \n\n\n\nRDI’s local partners such as Main Street Alliance\, Iowa Farmers Union and PA Stands Up will  identify local voices and integrate these messages into their on-the-ground accountability\, voter education\, and mobilization work. \n\n\n\nWhere does my money go? \n\n\n\nYour donation goes to RDI’s c4 Rural Victory Fund to support its partners including Real Voices Media.  \n\n\n\n\nDonation suggested but not required to get zoom link

SUMMARY:Boston ICE Party
DESCRIPTION:Join the Boston ICE Tea Party! \n\n\n\nWe call upon all patriots to join us on Dec 16th\, 2025\, the 252nd anniversary of the Boston Tea Party\, to retrace the footsteps of this historic protest and declare once more – America has No Kings! \n\n\n\nWe will gather at 7:15 pm at the Irish Famine Memorial Plaza\, across from the Old South Meeting House. We will march to Waterfront Plaza\, by the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum. And we will dump ice into Boston Harbor\, to declare loud and clear: No Kings! No Tariffs! No ICE! \n\n\n\nThere will be clean ice provided for dumping. Please do not bring your own ice. \n\n\n\n\nRSVP for updates\n\n\n\n\nFor over 250 years\, Bostonians have refused to bow down to tyranny. When King George III forced soldiers into Boston’s streets\, levied unjust taxes on imported tea\, and refused to hear the people’s voices\, the colonial patriots took a stand. On December 16\, 1773\, hundreds of colonists hurled tea into Boston Harbor in protest of King George’s tyranny\, in what some call the single most important event leading up to the American Revolution. \n\n\n\nToday\, a President who behaves like a king occupies the White House. He has sent ICE to harass our city and kidnap our friends\, families\, and neighbors. He has levied unjust tariffs\, and made our tea\, our coffee\, and our lives more expensive. Let us rise once more to take down tyranny! \n\n\n\nA core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
