DEMOCRACY ACTION

Every step we take, every protest we hold, every petition we sign, and every phone call we make is truly sending a message to Washington! In America, we don’t bow to a king. In America, we don’t give billionaires control over our government! In America, we care about each other and want everyone to have the right to live the life they choose!

Thousands gather at Santa Barbara Town Hall

Find an event, make a sign, bring your friends, bring your kids, and let’s stay the course. Let’s keep up the momentum. They can’t ignore us!

SAVE THE DATE! HANDS OFF OUR DEMOCRACY! THE NATIONAL DEMONSTRATION WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR!

On April 5, national and local organizations are coming together across the country to organize for Hands Off!, a national mass activation in defiance of the Trump-Musk billionaire takeover and the Republican assault on our freedoms and our communities. Hands Off! is an all-in moment for the pro-democracy, pro-worker movement—a demand, a warning, and a rallying cry that responds to the primary reasons for our mobilization:

  • The Trump Administration and Elon Musk’s illegal power grab is a crisis we must stop.

  • Trump, Musk, and congressional Republicans are gutting servicesraising prices, and racing towards slashing Medicaid, Social Security, and more.

  • Trump, Musk, and congressional Republicans are on this path of destruction for the benefit of their billionaire allies.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS! SIGN UP HERE!

DIRECT DEMOCRACY ACTIONS YOU CAN JOIN…

Keep showing up to these continuing demonstrations. The numbers are growing. They remain peaceful and respectful of the surrounding areas, and the community’s support is increasing.

DEMONSTRATION AT TESLA SHOWROOMS WORLDWIDE

With Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, taking a prominent role in our government, people all across the world are now sending a message that they do not want him meddling in governments in the US and beyond. #TeslaTakedown has now gone global. The weekly protests are having a major impact—the stock has gone down, Tesla’s Board of Directors is dumping its own stock, and a major investor has now called on Elon Musk to depart the Board. The protests are working!

Every week, there is a protest at a Tesla showroom near you. Find one here.

Then, on March 29th, there is a worldwide Day of Action against Tesla at showrooms everywhere (US, Canada, Europe, Asia). #Tesla Takedown had a great national call this week with Alex Winter, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, and many more guests. You can watch it on YouTube here: #TeslaTakedown Mass Mobilizing Call

In the SF Bay Area, demonstrations in Walnut Creek, Berkeley, and San Francisco are going strong. Make and bring your sign and your voice!

LAMORINDA PEACE AND JUSTICE

This weekly demonstration is organized by the Lamorinda Peace and Justice Group. Every Tuesday, you can join them from 5-6 p.m. at the corner of Mt. Diablo Blvd and Moraga Rd (across from Safeway) in a small park on that corner. The goal is to bear witness to the crisis in our country, which has seen the deconstruction of our institutions and agencies and the appointment of unqualified leadership. Bring your signs and your voice for this peaceful gathering of citizens for Democracy.

 

CTD DAYS OF ACTION

In a Democracy, our voices matter. Our Representatives and Senators need to hear from us! They need to know what we want them to do to support our best interests. Important legislation? Critical appointments? Illegal actions? National security? We, the people, need to tell them what we want to happen and how we want them to vote.

We have a great group learning about and then calling together on important issues every week. We are finding our voice and using it, so come and join us! CTD ACTION DAYS SIGN UP HERE!
