This January 6 marks the second anniversary of the insurrection. January 6 was a dark day in America. The bipartisan January 6th Select Committee has shown that Trump and his MAGA allies planned, promoted, and paid for a criminal conspiracy to overturn an election they knew they’d lost.

Even though some of the most prominent election conspiracists lost their midterms, they are already looking to 2024 for ways to overturn the will of voters. They are working to sabotage future elections by changing state laws, threatening state officials and packing election administration offices so that they can have the final say over election results – even when they lose.

We cannot be complacent and are calling for an end to the ongoing violent and criminal attacks on our freedoms. We must protect our elections by protecting voters, election officials, and a free and fair process.

How to prepare:
The January 6 Committee report is out, and we know that supporters of the insurrection remain in Congress and in the Senate. The danger is not past. Let's show our recognition of this continuing threat to democracy, and highlight the threat posed by MAGA Republicans who plan to conduct revenge "investigations" rather than take steps to protect our democracy. We will meet at the fountain outside the Fleet Science Center. Bring signs if you wish. Text 619 517 0370 or email JeanD@CBFDIndivisible.com for more information. Wearing a mask is advisable, but we will be outside, so they are not mandatory. Please don't come if you are feeling unwell. See you there. Bring your friends.

Now is a pivotal moment to push the President to take bold climate action. On January 21st- the second anniversary of Biden’s inauguration, we are demonstrating to put pressure on the President to declare a climate emergency, stop approving fossil fuel projects, and stand up for Indigenous Rights!

WHAT: A march around the federal building calling for executive action on the climate crisis. We'll be building on powerful Black and Indigenous-led actions calling on the President to declare a climate emergency, end federal fossil fuel leasing, and give Native land back.

WHO: 350 Organizations across the country in partnership with regional environmental justice, frontline and indigenous organizations in collaboration with community-based/grassroot organizations, and/or national organizations. 

Why this is important for your community 

New fossil fuel leasing and expansion is incompatible with limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius and this infrastructure continues to sacrifice frontline communities facing the brunt of the health and welfare impacts of living next to fossil fuel destruction. These communities are forced to breathe heavily polluted air, which shortens lifespans and causes serious health harms including cancer. One in five premature deaths worldwide are caused by fossil fuel combustion.

Why we want President Biden to declare a climate emergency

Indigenous, Black, Latinx, AAPI, low-wealth, and other frontline communities will be hurt first and worst by the climate crisis. That is why we need President Biden to declare a national climate emergency. This could cease new fossil fuel production and expedite funding to communities impacted by decades of environmental racism and pollution.
