ACTION: Overwhelm the White House

From Indivisible Oregon...

**CALL TO ACTION**

OVERWHELM THE WHITE HOUSE! #THEIDESOFTRUMP
——————————————————————————————
Today, March 15th, 2017, each of us will mail The White House a postcard that publicly expresses our vocal opposition to the new “President.” And we, in vast numbers, from all corners of the world, will overwhelm Washington, DC:
1. Write one postcard. Write a dozen! Create your own cards, buy them, share them, it doesn’t matter as long as you write #TheIdes or #TheIdesOfTrump on them somewhere.
2. Please write #TheIdes or #TheIdesOfTrump somewhere on each of your postcards, take a photograph of it, and post the picture here and elsewhere on social media. 
3. Spread the word! Everyone on Earth can let Washington know their opinion of the President. They can’t build a wall high enough to stop the mail.
4. Then, on March 15th, mail your cards to:
The President (for now)
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500
5. Get ready for the NEXT postcard campaign, and the next, and the next — because we’re not going away. We will make ourselves heard by joining together. And together, we will wield the kind of political clout that can’t be ignored.
6. You can also call the White House comments line to share your thoughts: 202-456-1111

IDEAS:
Sharpen your wit, unsheathe your writing implements, and write from the heart. All of our issues — DAPL, women’s rights, racial discrimination, religious freedom, immigration, economic security, education, the environment, conflicts of interest, the existence of facts — can and should find common cause. That cause is to make it irrefutable that the president’s claim of wide support is a farce.
This event is INCLUSIVE. We want everyone — regardless of which issue or issues concerns them most — to be part of this postcard campaign. Some will send pink postcards, others will focus on immigration, or environment, or any number of other issues that are ALL important. 
We invite people to write personal messages, by hand, from the heart. While mass-produced or computer-produced postcards are also welcome, handwritten cards accentuate the number of people behind this campaign.
Please DO NOT write or depict anything violent or encouraging of violence. ——————————————————————————————
