NO TIME TO SPARE?

With fifty senators now committed to repealing the FCC’s plan to dismantle net neutrality, we only need one Republican Senator to pass a bill in that body and move our fight to the House. Find out where your senators and representative stand, then call and demand that they vote to save net neutrality.

GOT SOME TIME?

The government spending bill is expiring this Friday, January 19, and Republicans will need Democratic votes to keep the government running. That gives us a crucial opportunity to finally pass the Dream Act and give undocumented youth permanent protection that doesn’t depend on the whims of the administration or the courts. Find a local #NoDreamNoDeal action near you on January 17 or 18 and sign up to demand that your members of Congress stand with Dreamers.

READY TO DIG IN?

The day after President Trump’s first State of the Union, people across the country will gather to watch something much more inspiring: Fossil Free Fast, an event focused on the state of the climate movement and the path ahead to a fossil fuel–free world. You can join the movement by hosting a watch party. Gather with your neighbors to livestream the event featuring Senator Bernie Sanders and activists Bill McKibben and Varshini Prakash, then use a detailed toolkit to begin a campaign to make your community fossil-fuel free. 350.org will even follow up afterward to help with your next steps. Click here to sign up to host your own Fossil Free Fast watch party or to find one near you.

Support The Nation’s June Fundraising Campaign

With the midterm elections now firmly upon us, the question is whether Democratic candidates will do more than merely occupy ballot lines as mild alternatives to the red-hot crisis that is Donald Trump.

As Trump spends over $1 billion a day on a globally destabilizing war on Iran and admits that he doesn’t “think about Americans’ financial situation,” millions across the country are struggling with the surging costs of essentials. Democrats must seize this moment and advance bold, small-“d” populist ideas—not settle for cynical caution that once again snatches defeat from the jaws of victory.

The Nation elevates progressive ideas, movements, and elected officials achieving real change across the country into the national conversation. At the same time, our journalists are exposing how crypto and AI-funded super PACs are spending hundreds of millions of dollars to knock out candidates they oppose, reporting on the devastating impact of the Supreme Court’s evisceration of the Voting Rights Act, and sounding the alarm on attempts by red states to quickly redraw electoral maps, disenfranchising Southern Black voters.

We can play this critical role because of support from readers like you. This June, we’re raising $20,000 to power The Nation’s independent journalism in the run-up to November’s immensely consequential elections.

It’s in our power to build a more just society, and your support at this critical moment brings us closer to that bold vision. I hope you’ll donate today.

Onward,
