YOUR RESISTANCE NEWSLETTER
WEEK OF MARCH 31, 2019
Attorney General Barr provided a 4-page summary of the nearly 400 page Mueller report. Unsurprisingly, many believe the summary is insufficient and oversteps AG powers as he draws too many of his own conclusions. Representative Nadler has given the AG and the White House until 4/2 to release the report. If this does not happen, a Rapid Response may be called for 4/4 at 5pm. Stay tuned......
Don't miss our next General Meeting on Thursday 4/4/19 from 7pm
House Justice Appropriations Subcommittee meeting Tuesday, 04/02/19 Email or call your Representative and urge that he or she vote YES on the following bills at the House Justice Appropriations Subcommittee meeting this Tuesday, 04/02/19 1:00 PM. HB 49 - Incarcerated Women Provides a more dignified and humane environment for incarcerated women, respectful treatment from male guards and free sanitary products. HB 219 - Victims of Human Trafficking Requires mandatory minimum term of incarceration for solicitation of prostitution offenses involving victims of human trafficking. HB 6051 - Mandatory Direct File Limit ‘direct file’ options charging children as adults for their redemption and restoration of judicial oversight.

Tips on interviewing representatives from Indivisible Chicago
We ask a ton of questions so I recommend 2 things.
#1 ask your group what issues matter most to
them and ask questions related to those issues.
Borrowing questions from local issue groups working on that issue will
help align with those that are most impacted and elevate both of you.
#2 Think of the questions like we're dating our
candidates. We have to be super clear
about what we want from them. "Hon,
will you take out the garbage?" Isn't enough. Instead, an in person question might be
"Having a clean place is important to me.
In the next 2 hours will take the garbage and recycling down to the
alley and replace the bag in the can?"
A written version might be, In
the next 2 hours will take the garbage and recycling down to the alley and replace
the bag in the can?
My personal in person question is, "As an Iraqi War
Veteran, it's important to me that every person have access to our democracy
regardless of their income, education, or if we agree on an issue. If elected, will you commit to holding 4 town
halls every 12 months that are free to the public, open to the press, and have
at least 30 minutes of uncensored questions." Written it's:
If elected, will you commit to holding 4 town halls every 12 months that
are free to the public, open to the press, and have at least 30 minutes of
uncensored questions? (Which is also the Townhall project pledge)
When writing a personal question, consider SMART goal: specific, measurable, attainable (consider
what can be done at the city, county, state,
and federal level), relevant (use your story to tie into the
conversation), and time-based.
