The CAD - 4 Actions You Can Take Today to Help Build a Moral Society
About the IMC-CAD Weekly Action Dispatch:
If you are a newsletter editor / blogger / influencer, please consider sharing these actions in your network so we can multiply our power and increase our impact! And, if you are an individual, please subscribe and take these actions with us!
The Coordinated Action Dispatch (CAD) Team is an Action Team of Indivisible Massachusetts Coalition (IMC).
Each week, the IMC-CAD Team receives suggested actions from a wide range of activists through its CAD Team Action Submission Form, and works with legislative experts (Indivisible, ACLU, Common Cause, Progressive Mass, MIRA, and others) to vet and prioritize a short list of actions for the week. These are sent to dozens of newsletter editors and individuals each Wednesday through IMC’s “Coordinated Action Dispatch.”
Please consider distributing these priority IMC-CAD actions to your networks each week so we can multiply our power and increase our impact! All actions can be done either by individuals or groups.
This Week’s Top Priority Actions:
