Every week, People’s Action shares actions you can take online and with our member groups
| This week, President Trump and his MAGA allies escalated their crackdown in Washington, D.C., sending in more than a thousand additional National Guard troops from Republican-led states. Let’s be clear: Trump wants to silence dissent and seize control. At People’s Action and People’s Action Institute, we refuse to back down. Authoritarianism thrives when people are afraid to act. We know our power comes from organizing, mobilizing, and standing together. That’s why we need you with us. Join People’s Action Institute this week for our Tax & Budget Fight phone banks, and next week for our Fundamentals of Organizing training—where we’ll sharpen our skills, strengthen our relationships, and build the people power it takes to win. Here’s how you can plug in this week 👇 People’s Action |

| The Big Ugly Budget rips away health care and food assistance to give massive tax breaks to billionaires and corporations. That ain’t right! Your representatives are in the annual appropriations process and planning to make even deeper cuts to housing funds, education, and other investments that working people need! Join People’s Action Institute for Tax & Budget Fight Phone banks, where we’ll talk to constituents and have deep, meaningful conversations about how these funding cuts hurt our communities. Together, we’ll take action to pressure Congress to stop these cuts and ensure the rich pay their fair share. No experience? No problem! We provide training at every phone bank to set you up for success. Whether you’re a seasoned volunteer or making your first call, you’ll be supported every step of the way. Thursday Aug 21 6:00 p.m.—8:30 p.m ET |
