Swing Blue Alliance Message Testing Phone Bank!
2025-09-18 14:00 - 16:00
How often have you wondered how effective is the messaging on our postcards and scripts used during our phone banks ?

For the first time Swing Blue Alliance’s Research, Phone Bank, and Mail teams are teaming up to test our messaging! —bringing together the power of our volunteer community to deepen our impact. We’re working with the Rural Freedom Network to get the word out to voters in Pennsylvania’s 10th District, where far-right Rep. Scott Perry is pushing cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

RSVP for Zoom Link

But this campaign isn’t just about reaching voters—it’s about listening, too. We want to know how people react to this message. Does it move them? Do they push back? Can they help us say it better? What we learn from this effort will help shape future campaigns—and make our messages stronger.

There are easy calls and we’ll provide full training and support throughout the phone bank and debrief at the end to share with each other.

Justice for All Thursdays
2025-09-18 11:00 - 13:00 | ICE Enforcement & Removal Operations Office, 1000 District Ave., Burlington, MA
Greater Assabet Indivisible Network (GAIN) invites you to stand in solidarity with immigrants and resistance to ICE and their cruel and lawless detention of our neighbors Thursdays from 11am-1pm, starting September 4. Regardless of any other political views, you are welcome to join us and demand Justice 4 All so long as you do so non-violently.

Our friends at Bearing Witness have been hosting gatherings at this location for many weeks. We are an unaffiliated group, but very much aligned with their values and mission. Our goal is to add to the total number of hours that citizens stand in non-violent opposition to the deplorable detainment conditions at this location. If you have been to Bearing Witness on Wednesdays, we would love to have you at Justice 4 All Thursdays.

Schedule (Starting Thursday, September 4 – more dates to follow)

11:00-11:30 Welcome; music; announcements11:30-12:30 Stand with signs along District Ave12:30-1:00 Optional short march down to Mall Rd.

What happens at this ICE office?

ICE personnel depart from District Ave. in unmarked vans with tinted windows on missions to abduct immigrants across New England. Immigrants may also show up at the office for appointments. The facility on District Ave was never intended to be a detention center, yet immigration lawyers and media interviews reveal that people are now being housed here in conditions that have been called “abysmal” and “unsanitary.”

What to expect at Justice 4 All?

We are committed to nonviolence, and we stand peacefully with signs outside the facility. We do not block the entrance, we do not physically approach ICE agents as they walk to/from the parking lot, and we do not block traffic on District Ave.

Signs

This is a very targeted action outside the ICE facility, so it’s not the venue for protesting other causes. Even though we care deeply about other issues, while outside ICE we must remain focused on immigration.

Parking and other tips

For parking, please use the Macy’s overflow lot (75 Burlington Mall Road, follow signs for Macy’s, see map). For those with mobility challenges, please keep in mind that the lots closest to ICE — the FAA lot beside ICE and the BAE Systems lot directly across the street from ICE — have both been blocked off. There are restaurants nearby (Clover, Pressed Cafe, Chipotle) to get food and use the bathroom. Before arriving, please consider your own self-preservation (citizenship status) and self-care (sunscreen, hydration, etc.).

Join the Email List

If you would like to receive updates on Justice4All Thursdays and reminders of our events, please add your email below to join our list. We’re excited to reinforce the work of our friends at Bearing Witness and to support our immigrant neighbors. We hope that you will join us.

See you in Burlington!

Fearless Four Fundraiser with Jess Craven
2025-09-17 19:00 - 20:30
Virginia is on track to be the South’s only state fully led by Democrats — governor and legislature. What happens in Virginia in 2025 will affect the balance of political power in 2026 and beyond.

If Democrats win key state house races in southeast Virginia, we not only galvanize a sweeping Democratic win—we also set the stage to flip a critical congressional seat (CD-02, southeast Virginia) in 2026. That’s why your support matters right now. And it is volunteers like us, the engines driving these campaigns forward and fueling victories in the Virginia and around the country, who are making a better future possible.

Catelin Drey’s 10-point special election win in Iowa proves it: Democrats win when we invest now and organize smart. Today, it’s Virginia’s turn.

Join us on Zoom 9/17 with the candidates and special guests:

Jess Craven (Chop Wood, Carry Water), activist and progressive content creator

Virginia Congresswoman Jennifer McClellan

We’re rallying behind four Democratic women challengers taking on Republican incumbents in 2025:

Mary Person (HD-83)

Cheryl Smith (HD-98)

Cat Porterfield (HD-99)

Liz Richardson (HD-100)

This is a movement led by us—the volunteers, organizers, and grassroots supporters who are building a better future from the ground up. These four highly qualified, deeply committed candidates share our values and are running to make life better for ordinary Virginians.

Today, we are 60 days out and early voting starts on Sep 19. Momentum in Virginia’s elections matters for the entire country. An early investment now strengthens our candidates, fuels voter turnout, and builds the infrastructure Democrats will need to win big in 2026.

Please consider a contribution—help make this the biggest upset in 2025.
