Actions & Strategies – What Can I Do

Find Contact Information for Your Elected Representatives – Simply enter your address to locate contact information for your Federal, State, and Local elected officials. Pro tip – For State Electeds the key offices to focus on include the Governor, State Senator, and State Representative (Assemblymember) while for Local Electeds the key offices to look for are Mayor, County Supervisor, and City Legislator (City Councilmember). Also, make your life easier and save their contact information in your phone and use 5 calls which have scripts for you to use to talk to your reps.
Display Dissent – Get loud about the type of American you are and the version of America you want to live in. If you think “diversity, equity, and inclusion” are good American values then get a t-shirt that says so. Post a pro-democracy sign on your business. Refuse to be silent.
Divest $2B of California’s Public Pension Funds from Tesla – Did you know that the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) and California State Teachers’ Retirement System (CalSTRS) have a total of roughly $2B invested in Tesla stock?! Through the Divest from Tesla website you can sign the petition, email the boards, submit statements, and more. Pressure is building on both the CalPERS and CalSTRS boards to drop Tesla, and you can be part of the final push. If you want to make a major impact, this is low-hanging fruit that can really hurt MAGA and Elon.
