Judges in America are currently under siege. More than 1,000 serious threats have been made against federal judges in the past five years, including judges appointed by both Republican and Democratic presidents. Democracy functions only when all judges are free to make decisions based upon their understanding of the law – not based upon fear or coercion.
Indivisible LAB members of Support Our Courts invite you to join them outside the Chevalier Theater in Medford, where Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson will be speaking, to show support for the safety of every member of the judicial branch. This a non-partisan rally of support for the judges, not a protest and will be held rain or shine. Signage should be confined to this particular issue.

In 2020, the progressive movement defied expectations and precedent, coordinating strategy and messaging, tactics and objectives, to defend our electoral victory as a collective. We fought back fascist candidates across the US in 2022 and we must continue that same level of collaboration and messaging discipline to keep winning policies and campaigns to improve our lives.

A 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.
Our next meeting will feature an ice cream social and will include:
a brief rallying and encouraging message from OG Leslie (“Why We Fight and Why There’s Hope”);
a chat with Kyle Davis, candidate for Salem City Councillor At-Large, who will discuss his perspective on the challenges facing town governments under Trump;
a summary of the MA Democratic Convention that will have happened two weeks earlier;
and an important and informative report from Team Next, NSI’s response to the call for civil resistance and disobedience beyond protests and marches.

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.
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.

A ballot initiative we support to reform the corrupting stipend system in the MA legislature will appear on the November 2026 ballot. Our unique stipend system—by which our elected representatives are beholden to leadership for a significant portion of their pay—cements the stranglehold those leaders maintain on all legislation in the Commonwealth. This dynamic has helped create a major obstacle to accountability and the least effective and transparent legislature in the US. PDM wants MA voters to weigh in on this important reform.
Our panelists will be Jonathan Hecht, a PDM leader who served as Watertown’s State Representative from 2009 to 2020 and Brian Muldoon, an accomplished organizer, who is leading the newly formed Legislative Effectiveness and Accountability Project (LEAP) to support the ballot question. They will explain the significance of stipend reform, the campaign to get the question on the ballot and how you can help. To move the campaign forward, PDM needs your assistance to gather 100,000 signatures supporting the initiative, between September and November of this fall.
In solidarity with our besieged friends and fellow countrypeople in the amazing city of DC, I plan to stand out with the Groton First Saturday protesters this Saturday morning from 10 to noon , then come back to Littleton and stand out in the Common until 2 pm, or the rain washes me away.
Anyone who would like to join me in Littleton, join me on the Common around 1.
Extra credit for bringing one or more signs that proclaim freedom from being occupied by our own army.
