About Our Work

The Take Action Now Team (TANT) organizes like-minded people to hold elected and other officials accountable through a number of actions that engage local constituents.

We organize protests, rallies, and community meetings to engage local constituents, promote activism and bring awareness to the horrendous policies and actions of the current administration.

Our goals are accomplished through organizing actions such as the "No Kings" protest on overpasses and bridges in El Dorado County. In addition, TANT works to increase voter education and registration, organizes visits to local legislative offices, and supports actions such as phone banking and canvassing. We have a variety of activities where you can make a difference.

As a TANT member, you will have the opportunity to become involved in a number of activities. Many are described in the earlier section. Others include group sign making, and attending protests and other "Visibility Events."

Our members come from a variety of backgrounds. Are you a long-time activist with years of experience? Join us. We can use your expertise. Are you a person who has never participated in activism but are simply fed up with the harm this administration is doing to our country, our friends and family? Join us. Bring your commitment to resistance and make a change. You'll find like-minded people who will support you.

About Our Work

We are in a period of authoritarian breakthrough. Trump and his administration are rapidly consolidating authoritarian power and eroding the norms and institutions that serve as a check on that power.

It's not too late to stop this takeover, but we must act now to build a society-wide backlash. Join with others in the Courage Collective to identify the actions we can take locally.

Our workgroup will learn about the different pillars of power that are supporting Trump's agenda: Business, Labor, Faith, Education, Civil Service, and Military/Police. We will identify local pillars of power. Then we will choose one or more local pillars and create actions to push those institutions into supporting noncooperation with the Trump administration in order to resist authoritarian actions and defend democracy.

About Our Work

Indivisible El Dorado's Elections and Political Advocacy Task Force is charged with coordinating plans and preparations for membership participation in the 2026 midterm Congressional elections and 2028 Presidential elections. Activities will include organizing or publicizing candidate forums with other sponsors.

The Task Force will also recommend the process and criteria for endorsements for approval by the IED membership of candidates in the 2026 primary elections in the 3rd and 7th Congressional districts consistent with Indivisible National's 2026 Primary Program. Collaboration with other Indivisible groups in those districts which might lead to endorsements by Indivisible National is a possibility.

To the extent resources and interest is available, the Task Force will also provide information regarding important state and local elections. The Task Force will inform the membership of opportunities to assist in voter registration drives, poll watching, and to strategically support candidates through canvassing, phone banking, postcarding, and campaign contributions.

The Elections and Political Advocacy Task Force will also monitor Indivisible National's calls to action for members to contact U.S. Senators or House of Representative members by phone, emails or office visits regarding important developing issues. The Task Force will share the information with the Leadership and Communications Teams for appropriate action and messaging to the membership.
