Happy Friday, my rowdy friends!
There’s so much happening in the world, but I hope you’ll take a moment to slow down—breathe, enjoy the little things, and take care of you.
We need you—I need you, our community needs you, and our country needs you.
Go be awesome today! Because you are!
Here are a few reminders, in case you missed them:
Families First is Happening this weekend:
On Saturday, July 26th, families across all 50 states and D.C. will unite in peaceful marches and rallies to say loud and clear: our families come first.
Organized by a national coalition of unions, advocacy groups, faith leaders, and everyday people, Families First events will demand care—not cruelty—from Congress and the White House. Grounded in nonviolence and community safety, we’re showing up to protect each other, defend dignity, and remind our neighbors they’re not alone.
Together, we rise to say: our families come first.

📣 Today’s calls to action
When leaders escape accountability, it signals that power—not justice—rules, eroding trust, fueling corruption, and opening the door to authoritarianism. Billionaire-backed justices and elites aren't serving the people—they’re scheming to suppress our voices, strip away our rights, and rule over us. But progress and power to the people is more than an idea; it’s a movement. By standing up, speaking out, and demanding dignity, opportunity, and justice for all, we can build an America that truly lives up to its promise.
We are a group of people who believe in the possibility of change—and work every day to make it happen. Join us by by taking action to champion progress and power to the people! Pick up to 5:
