Emergency Call to Stand Against Trump's Muslim and Refugee Bans
Last week, Trump signed an Executive Order halting all refugee admissions and barring people from many predominantly Muslim countries from entering the United States. This vicious, hateful Executive Order undermines everything that America stands for. But remember, Trump’s agenda doesn’t depend on Trump—it depends on YOUR members of Congress rubber-stamping it.

(Indivisible is a progressive movement in US politics, initiated in 2016 as a reaction to the election of Donald Trump as US President. It first appeared in mid-December 2016, with the online publication of a handbook of suggestions for peacefully but effectively resisting the move to the right in the US Executive branch that was widely anticipated (and feared) under the incoming Trump administration. The authors (Ezra Levin, Leah Greenberg and Angel Padilla, among others) were congressional staffers who had noted the national effectiveness of political action at the local level by the right-wing Tea Party, and who thought that similar action by the left could be effective against what they and many others perceived as the highly regressive policies advocated by Trump. In a little more than two months, by January 23rd 2017 (just three days after Trump's inauguration), more than 2,100 local groups identifying as "Indivisibles" had formed and declared their support for the movement. -- Wikipedia)
