Signs of Justice

Perhaps letter writing is not your “thing”.  What do you think about mailing 3 postcards per month…one each to your Senators and one to your personal Representative? Signs of Justice has a project to send 12,000,000 postcards to Congress.  There’s that 12,000,000* number again. (*This number was taken from a Harvard study that found we need to activate 3.5% of the population to affect non-violent change). The Signs of Justice campaign is called the Majority Project.  They are asking participants to address and mail the 3 postcards mentioned above on the first day of the month and to repeat this activity every month.  They have created a postcard for this purpose: Visit the Signs of Justice website for more information and/or to order or download your postcards.  https://www.signs of justice.com/ Please let me know if you are going to participate in this postcard campaign. We would like to track the number of cards sent from Indivisible DeSoto MS.

Letter #1:  Impeachment/Removal of the President  By KJ & BT The U.S. Constitution, in Article VI, mandates that all federal officials be bound by oath or affirmation to support our Constitution. The core of the oath of office is a pledge to support and defend the U.S. Constitution against all enemies, both foreign and domestic.  Donald Trump needs to be removed from office either by Impeachment or the 25th Amendment. Clearly, Trump is not mentally capable of performing the duties of the President of the United States.   There is never a wrong time to do the right thing.  The time is now. Sincerely, Letter # 2:  28th Amendment By BT The Equal Rights Amendment has been ratified by 38 states.  However, the Archivist of the United States has not published the ERA Amendment as part of the Constitution due to concerns about the extended and expired deadlines.  Please convince the Archivist to publish the 28th Amendment.   If someone ob...
