August 12th: 1 Million Voices Rising Community Meeting

August 12th: 1 Million Voices Rising Community Meeting

Hello, Patriots!

Last Tuesday, we asked how many of you would stay for our One Million Voices Rising meeting—and twenty hands shot up! If the 4–5 pm time slot or the summer heat make it hard for you to attend our rallies, this 5:30–7:00 pm indoor meeting at the Episcopal Church of the Atonement (host of the Farmer’s Market) at 36 Court Street, is just as important. Come—and bring a friend!

Ours will be one of thousands of local meetings this month hosted by Indivisible chapters nationwide. Together, we’ll explore how autocrats try to seize power—and what it takes to stop them. We’ll also be building stronger connections with each other and reaching out to new allies.

If you’re coming, please RSVP so we can be ready for you.

As Trump and the GOP attempt to rig the electoral map for the 2026 election, Texas Dems have called for a national day of action this Saturday, August 16.

We'd like to poll everyone on our list– and we'll ask tomorrow in person– if one in Westfield is the right move, right now.

Fight The Trump Takeover Rally · Mobilize
The Texas House Democrats are denying quorum to stop the Trump takeover of Texas and block his attempt to rig the 2026 midterm elections. But Trump isn’t stopping in Texas. He’s targeting Missouri, Ohio, Florida, and every state he can twist to help him steal Congress next year. States like California and New York are starting to fight back. Let’s be clear: this fight started in Texas, but it doesn’t end there. This isn’t just about redistricting or one state’s politics. It’s about the future of our democracy. Trump is terrified of the American people. He knows he can’t win on his ideas, so he’s trying to take Congress by hook or by crook--and he’s doing it by silencing the voices of communities of color. We’re not going to let that happen. That’s why we’re organizing a National Day of Action, on Saturday, August 16, to fight back against the Trump takeover of our country. Texas will lead with an anchor rally at the Capitol in Austin. Across the country, we’re asking people to show up at their state houses, city halls, or community spaces and make it clear -- we see what Trump is doing, and we won’t stand for it. **Please note:** A core principle behind our Fight the Trump Takeover actions is a commitment to nonviolence in all we do. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

Carry it on,

Your NO KINGS Westfield Working Team
