Help the Country: Actions Now
Demonstrations, Recurring
These not only communicate your message, but they show others what they can do too. Also you can google protest signs if you need ideas.
Please! Be very, very careful. Stay with others, follow instructions, do not challenge, and be aware that ICE is not granting you all the rights you are supposed to have, like capturing video.

Stay In Touch with Ed, Elizabeth and Lori
Please continue sending Senators Warren and Markey and Rep Trahan messages and encouragement to continue fighting. A thank you too! Volume and sustained messages give them ammunition. Also add the state officials: the governor and attorney general, links below for full contact information and message outline, but please use a short excerpt of the message that conveys your primary concern. A good message now to our reps is to reassert their legislative prerogative over the executive branch. And maybe they should try bucking up some of their GOP colleagues who are intimidated.
Postcards - While the GOP Leaders Create Confusion, We Write Voters!
