VA Clinic Weekly Action
Fri, May 16, 2025 11:00am - 1:00pm | US/Pacific
Veterans Administration Clinic
Join and support the Veterans Administration Clinic weekly action. Meet at 11:00 at 2285 Challenger Way, Santa Rosa.
The VA Clinic doesn’t treat every veteran in the best of times, and these are not the best of times. Clinicians’ jobs have been eliminated. Benefits have been eliminated. President 2.0 would cut the care for veterans even further.
Those out there protesting for better care are grateful and surprised by the support from Indivisible. They thought we forgot that we are all in this together.
Let’s never let a moment pass when we forget that we are stronger together. And that together, we are Indivisible.

Fight For Schools!!
Sat, May 17, 2025 12:00pm - 2:00pm | US/Pacific
San Francisco Embarcadero Center
Dismantling the Department of Education, laying off thousands of dedicated department of education staff, appointing someone who has never spent a day teaching in a classroom to be our Secretary of Education…these are more than just headlines. They are direct threats to public education and the future of students and families across our community.
The Trump Administration is betraying public-school students and educators. Education is a non-partisan issue. Students in poverty and students with special needs deserve resources and support in our schools – we can all agree on that. The Trump Administration is targeting students and families in our communities with these vicious plans to dismantle public education. It’s unacceptable and we’re fighting back.

Protest Avelo Airlines’ Plan to Carry Out Deportation Flights - ONGOING
Sun, May 11, 2025 11:00am - 2:00pm | US/Pacific
We will protest the decision by Avelo Airlines to assist with deportations by the Trump regime. The company’s hub in Arizona is poised to start these deportations in May. It’s time to send a message to travelers to stop giving Avelo their business and assisting this enterprise.
We will be on the sidewalk leading to the Charles M. Schultz, Sonoma County Airport, which is for now a hub for Avelo's flights. This is in the morning when a maximum number of travelers will see our protest.
It is also good opportunity to protest federal layoffs with the FAA.
Sign up here.
NO KINGS OR THEIR CLOWNS - JUNE 14
This is a national protest, with events in a variety of locations in our communities.
In addition to Santa Rosa, events are being planned in Sonoma, Petaluma, Sebastopol, and Cloverdale. Make this list grow! Every community in our county can and should stand up and shout that we have no kings in the US! But oh, do we have a bunch of clowns.
Thank you so very, very much for posting the Fight For Schools Rally! Our teachers and students deeply appreciate the support!
