We are coordinating for council, school board, freeholders, and state representatives. We are also working with our 'local' Indivisible groups within our district.

I see a lot of talk from others and other groups. A lot of social media warriors.

But the keyboard is no substitute for running for everything or demanding town halls!

Believe it or not, Markey and Warren need some pushing. Weekly visits to the office are occurring.

Unity of women, POC, cultural diversity, LGBT.

We are all INDIVISIBLE. That is where this movement is at and what is most at stake. Not peoples pennies - only.

I am very proud to stand with like minded people!!!

It is run by DEMOCRATS. Many who were Hillary supporters.

It won't be hijacked by people who claim to be but in reality hate democrats.

I did not support Hillary in the 2016 Primary and was NEVER a Hillary fan. I held my nose and voted for her in the GE but was never enthusiastic about her.

Maybe you should clarify your thread's statement because it sounds a lot like the kinds of attacks made on Bernie Supporters.

Our Indivisible group has Sanders and Clinton supporters as well as Liberal Independents. Why would you not be included? We are all on the same team -

Stop the GOP.

Any BOB that voted for Stein, Johnson or Trump have no voice in the Democratic Party, especially since Hillary's platform reflected many of their supposed wishes.

It is not open to republicans who are afraid of Trump but believe in dismantling the social safety net, or think social justice is just to divisive to be supported politically or just don't give two shits about it.

We know who the 'avid' and vocal Republicans are. They aren't allowed at our meetings. From everything to these folks supporting a man who put a 'White History Sign' month in his now closed deli - to the 'Painting of a Blue Line' -

We don't want them. We know what they support. They can vote for us in General Elections if they want. If you voted for Trump or make excuses for him you are not welcome in our group.

The Republicans still have Freedom Works - they need to go to those meetings.
