Employees at Politics and Prose are exercising their
democratic right to form a union. Unfortunately, according to the Washington
Post, P&P management has hired a notorious anti-union law firm,
Jones Day, in response. Many people who love P&P as its neighborhood
bookstore are responding to the employees' request to show your support by
showing up Wed., Dec. 22 at noon wearing
red. Join in if you can.
24] – On Wed., Dec. 22 from 4 to 6 PM
and 6 to 8 PM and Thurs., Dec. 23 from 4 to 6 PM and 6 to 8 PM ET, call voters
in District 8 to support Edward Burroughs for County Councilperson in the
special election this upcoming January. Prince George's County deserved a more

25] – Join Common Cause activists around the country at a virtual phonebank to urge voters in key states to demand their senators’ support the Freedom to Vote Act, and to eliminate the filibuster. These phone banks are subject to change based on variables. Our democracy is in crisis: with redistricting around the corner and hundreds of voter suppression laws being introduced in states across the country, we do not have time to wait. On Wed., Dec. 22 from 4 to 6 and 6 to 8 PM ET, connect AZ voters to Sen. Sinema to ask her to do everything possible to pass the Freedom to Vote Act including fixing the filibuster. Call on Thurs., Dec. 23 from 6 to 8 PM and connect DE voters to Sen. Coons to ask that he will do everything possible to pass the Freedom to Vote Act including fixing the filibuster.

26] – The fossil fuel industry has been getting away with transporting explosive and flammable liquefied natural gas by rail since the Trump Administration. These "bomb trains" put millions of people in harm's way and threaten our climate. President Biden's team recently proposed a rule to suspend transport of some LNG by rail -- but it's not a repudiation of the Trump rule and it won’t end this dangerous process. Can you to join Beyond Extreme Energy and the Build Back Fossil Free team to submit a comment before December 23rd to tell the Biden administration to ban ALL LNG transport by rail? Tell the Biden administration to ban ALL LNG transport by rail at https://actionnetwork.org/letters/biden-ban-lng-by-rail?source=direct_link&referrer=group-beyond-extreme-energy.
27] – The War on Cuba is an award-winning documentary series executive-produced by Oliver Stone and Danny Glover that takes an in-depth look at the economic war waged by the Trump administration on the Cuban people. Released on YouTube in October 2020 and viewed half-a-million times, the series shows the devastating impact of U.S. sanctions and examines the political and electoral interests driving U.S. policy.
