A couple of requests: ACLU and your congresspeople

If you read here regularly or are a one-time visitor, I would like to ask you to consider taking a couple of actions today to take care of all of us who live in the United States.

First, make a donation to the American Civil Liberties Union. They do much good and your dollars will go to good use.

DONATE TO ACLU

Second, pick up your telephone and call your congressperson. Whether you get a live person or are directed into voicemail, leave a message asking them to stand up for our constitution, for our rights as citizens, and for all those who experience inequity in our country. Ask them to tell you what they are doing to address these things. You don’t have to be a great public speaker to get your message across. They need to hear that you care, that you’re willing to call them, and that you plan to vote in November.

These are small actions but I feel they can have mighty impact, especially when many of us do them.

Thanks for reading. I hope you’re safe and healthy and that you come back to visit me here.
