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.

Can we count on you?

In the coming election, the fate of our democracy and fundamental civil rights are on the ballot. The conservative architects of Project 2025 are scheming to institutionalize Donald Trump’s authoritarian vision across all levels of government if he should win.

We’ve already seen events that fill us with both dread and cautious optimism—throughout it all, The Nation has been a bulwark against misinformation and an advocate for bold, principled perspectives. Our dedicated writers have sat down with Kamala Harris and Bernie Sanders for interviews, unpacked the shallow right-wing populist appeals of J.D. Vance, and debated the pathway for a Democratic victory in November.

Stories like these and the one you just read are vital at this critical juncture in our country’s history. Now more than ever, we need clear-eyed and deeply reported independent journalism to make sense of the headlines and sort fact from fiction. Donate today and join our 160-year legacy of speaking truth to power and uplifting the voices of grassroots advocates.

Throughout 2024 and what is likely the defining election of our lifetimes, we need your support to continue publishing the insightful journalism you rely on.

Thank you,
The Editors of The Nation
