Official Daily Actions for Friday, August 1, 2025
Tell Seattle & King County Council: Divest from Elon Musk
Troublemakers and 350 Seattle are co-sponsoring a campaign to tell council members to divest from all businesses run by Elon Musk. Musk, DOGE, and the Republican Party are gutting federal programs and firing federal workers, which has a direct impact on communities in Seattle and King County. This effort calls on local government agencies to cease doing business with Musk.
Contact your council members directly (https://www.seattle.gov/council/meet-the-council and https://kingcounty.gov/en/dept/council/governance-leadership/county-council/councilmembers-districts) and sign the petition:

Three actions for Gaza:
- Demand immediate action to end the intentional starvation of Gaza.
From Indivisible National: Tell your Senators to demand that the Republican administration use its power to end the starvation of citizens in Gaza. The Republican administration under Donald Trump has the power to restore aid to Gaza to prevent the deaths and suffering of Palestinians – tell Senators Murray and Cantwell to demand the administration acts now: https://indivisible.org/resource/tell-your-senators-trump-must-ensure-gaza-aid-flows-freely-safely - The Senate recently voted to continue sending military aid (in the form of bombs and automatic weapons) to Israel, despite Israel’s ongoing forced starvation of Palestinians in Gaza. Use this link to send a thank you to Senator Patty Murray for her vote to block sending weapons to Israel, and tell Senator Cantwell that her vote to continue supplying military aid to Israel is unacceptable: https://www.imeupolicyproject.org/stop-weapons
- If you have the resources, consider donating to Standing Together (https://www.standing-together.org/en), which is the largest anti-war, anti-occupation grassroots group inside Israel and a joint Jewish and Arab-Israeli project. They have been demonstrating for a ceasefire and opposing the Netanyahu government’s starvation of Palestinians in Gaza. https://www.standing-together.org/en/donate-en

Help keep Seattle Indivisible running: We are all volunteers at Seattle Indivisible, but a lot of what supports our basic operations, such as meeting spaces, fliers, and website hosting costs money. Please contribute to keep us going strong: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/seattleindivisible
