_We are thrilled to announce the launch of the NWSOFA Indivisible Sharing Our Stories (SOS) Group!_

Join us for our very first meeting on Tuesday, June 3, 2025, from 7:00 to 8:30 PM CST via Zoom. This new initiative is dedicated to amplifying the voices of those whose lives have been impacted by the harmful policies of the Trump administration. By coming together, we aim to foster empathy, spark meaningful change, and ensure that these crucial stories receive the attention they deserve.

Personal stories have the power to move hearts and minds

Personal stories have the power to move hearts and minds in ways that facts and figures alone cannot. By sharing real-life experiences, we humanize complex issues and inspire our communities to take action. Your story—or your help in sharing someone else’s—can make a difference, turning statistics into a call for compassion and justice.

We welcome everyone in our Indivisible community: whether you have a story to share, or skills in writing, content creation, administration, or leadership. Your involvement will help us collect, organize, and amplify these narratives across social media, legislative hearings, town halls, protests, and personal conversations. Every voice matters, and your participation will be invaluable as we work to create lasting change.

If you’re passionate about making a difference, please join us for this important kickoff meeting. Mark your calendars and be part of a movement that ensures every story is heard and every voice counts.

Together, we can shine a light on the real-world impact of policy decisions—and help shape a better future for all.

Wednesday 6/4 @ 2 PM central & Thursday 6/5 @ 12 @ Noon central ZOOMS

“Join Indivisible Illinois & NWSOFA-indivisible to help us call voters in the

3 Republican congressional districts in Illinois

Join Indivisible Illinois to help us call voters in the 3 Republican congressional districts in Illinois to let them know that their GOP congressperson is planning to make deep cuts to Medicaid, and what that would mean for them and their communities.

These congresspeople are:

Mike Bost (IL-12),

Mary Miller (IL-15)

Darin LaHood (IL-16).

You do not have to be an Illinoisan to participate. This is the plan of the congressional GOP caucus. This is in the works in all of our states.

We can call voters in these 3 congressional districts as part of a bigger project to make calls to voters in other states as well.

If you have never phone banked before, we train. You will need both a phone and a computer for this phone bank.

From Indivisible / Urgent Actions needed:

– House Republicans just voted for a tax bill that does real harm to working Americans—slashing Medicaid, food assistance, and threatening Medicare to pay for massive tax breaks for billionaires. It’s a cruel, upside-down set of priorities that puts the ultra-wealthy first and working families last. 

Indivisible is organizing phonebanks every Wednesday and Thursday in June.

– But this fight isn’t over yet. The Senate is up next and we have a plan to block this bill. 

– We’re helping voters in key states call their senators and demand they reject this dangerous bill. We’ve used this tactic before—and it works. Back in 2017, grassroots pressure like this helped stop Republicans from dismantling the ACA.

– If we turn up the heat again, we can block this bill in the Senate—or force changes that send it back to the House, where it faces an even tougher path.

– Let’s remind Congress who they work for. Make some calls .. Starts June 4 /5th..
