Take Action
Action begins the moment we decide that concern isn’t enough. We focus on strategic, non-violent actions to slow or stop the damaging policies of this current administration. Below are a number of opportunities you can take action on.

Protect Our Electoral Vote
If passed, LR24CA would place a constitutional amendment on the November ballot, to move Nebraska to a winner-take-all system for presidential electoral votes. Nebraska's current system ensures voters across different congressional districts have a voice in presidential elections. LR24CA would eliminate that distinction. Lawmakers need to hear from Nebraskans right now. Tell your Senator to vote NO on LR24CA.
Transparency Now: The Epstein Case
Transparency is not optional. Accountability is not partisan. Survivors and the American public deserve the truth. Sign the petition to demand transparency from the DOJ.
LB907 limits immigration enforcement actions in schools. LB1034 restricts ICE access to schools. Contact your state senator and encourage them to support LB907 and LB1034.
The SAVE Act blocks millions of Americans from voting, by requiring people to produce specific documents to register to vote. 21 million Americans don’t have these documents readily available. Law already makes it clear that only American citizens can vote in elections.
Rise up with Indivisible. Take action, speak truth, and unite for a democracy that puts people first and creates a fair, hopeful, and inclusive future for all. Follow the link below to a number of different Indivisible campaigns you can participate in now.
A broad coalition of groups across the country, including Indivisible, is demanding that Congress answer our call to get ICE Out For Good. Congress MUST use the tools they have to end this lawless violence, and withhold their votes from any bill that would increase ICE's already massive budget. Add your name and Indivisible will automatically send a message to your Members Of Congress for you.
Nebraska is directly supporting the Trump administration's mass deportation goals, through 287(g) agreements - a deportation collaboration program that puts local resources into immigration enforcement. Add your name to tell Gov. Pillen and other officials that these agreements must end.
Voters overwhelmingly rejected vouchers at the ballot box. Pillen is ignoring the will of of Nebraskan's. We already said NO to vouchers - and we meant it. Tell Pillen NO Public Dollars for Private Schools!
Trump & Tax Breaks For Corporations
Trump issued new regulations that loosen enforcement, raise income thresholds, and exempt entire industries from compliance, including crypto firms, multinational corporations, and private equity titans. Tell Congress to stop Trump from handing out secret tax breaks to the rich and corporations.
