ACTION6:  August 2025

As authoritarianism takes hold we must act in every possible way.  Below is an excellent partial list annotated from an Aug 15th  Substack article of 

People Power United and Laurie Woodward Garcia

We The People of Cache Valley suggest the following:

• Take heart, many actions, like voting, is resisting.  
• Helping others stay on voter rolls is acting --powerfully.  
• Support the vulnerable and targets perspos in our community and across the world.  Join local groups and ALLIES composed of your neighbors. 
• Supporting Texas Dem and California's Gavin Newsom is acting.  Say thank you in public ways too.
• Find some of their meetings in the WTP.CV Community Calendar
• Giving money to Texas dems directly might be twisted by the Texas cheaters (MAGA republican lackeys of the White House) to try to bring ridiculous bribery charges.
• Bring attention to cheating of republican gerrymanders -that is resisting.
• Make fun of the dangerous  claim that DC is so violent (it is not) that National Guard is needed when the same team did not protect DC lawmakers form the most violent 
• Donating money, if you can, to ACLU, Democracy Docket, Legal Defense  fund, League of Women Voters, and all the good causes, IS ALSO ACTING.
