Join us next week, May 24th, for our Casting Party! We are recruiting for our all-star production team to create a podcast/YouTube show to inform the public! We will have a lovely evening of food, beverages, music, a quick presentation of what we're looking for, and an evening of community.

The GOP is trying to defund Medicaid and SNAP in order to make billionaires richer. If you’re represented by a Republican, make sure they hear from you: indivisible.org/resource/cal... And use our toolkit to take action and raise awareness about Trump’s Tax Scam: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Everyone is welcome. It does not matter who you are, where you came from- If you have concerns about the future of Greenville, come forward with us together. We hope to meet you there.

Indivisible Upstate SC is hosting a Town Hall at the Hughes Main Library on March 15th at 2 pm. The Democratic Women of Greenville put out this petition for our elected officials to participate. Indivisible will hold an "empty chair" town hall for any elected politicians who decide not to attend.

It is time for our elected officials show some transparency and accountability to us, we the people. Please sign and share: www.change.org/p/demand-our...
