We meet Online every Sunday at 3pm ET to develop strategies for creating effective actions.
What We Are Doing
Strategies for Building Effective Actions
We're forming teams around the Pillars of Democracy to better organize and strategize. Teams will be collaborative across the DMV and nationwide.
We encourage anyone and everyone to participate to share ideas and feedback and then take the plans back to your group or community.

Build a strong basis for education and outreach that inspires trust and accuracy. Our team crafts flyers, messages, and outreach that reflect the values of a free society.
Action Teams
We work to create pro-democracy actions that fit into the larger pro-democracy movement, connect with community members and drive engagement.
Indivisible Actions
We work to promote coordinated action with Indivisible, broadening the reach of their big-tent messaging and holding our representatives accountable to their constituents.
Social Event
We are a friendly group always ready to have a slice of pizza or meet at Politics and Prose for a coffee or book talk.
Committee & Team Work
Supporting the 'Pillars' of Democracy
The 'pillars' of democracy are the different parts of a free society that help decentralize authority and hold government accountable. They include a free market/business, education and private universities, our legal system and professional organizations, our state election system, an independent military and local police forces, a free press ...
We'll be organizing around these parts of society to help support a free and open democracy.
To learn more about Indivisible's plan to rally around these Pillars, watch their series 'One Million Rising' or find out about 'Courage Collectives.'
Electoral Committee
Please see ‘Elections Page’ to learn how to help in the 2026 Elections.
This Committee will have a team for ‘Electoral Interference.’ We’ll stay informed about the Dominion electoral system and the organizations filing lawsuits to protect our elections so that if a grassroots movement is needed, we understand the issues and are ready to move.
AI/Tech Committee
This Committee will have teams for Digital Best Practices and keep us apprised of technology being used by the government.
