Our topic: Making common cause with our military veterans
One month ago, six military and intelligence veterans, all of them members of Congress, produced a video reminding active-duty military that they not only can but must refuse to obey illegal orders. That video sparked a firestorm. On Sunday, January 11, we’re joined by military veterans who can share personal experiences of the extraordinary tension between service to the U.S. Constitution and obedience to a civilian chain of command that is actively subverting it. Join us to learn how to support our veterans and active-duty service members who are standing up for their own rights and benefits, and for our Constitution.
Join with others across the county who are as committed to a free American future as you are.

Abortion Care Available in Missouri Again, at Least for Now
In February, a judge in Missouri blocked a licensing requirement that restricted clinics from providing abortion care in the state. Within hours of the ruling, Planned Parenthood announced they would resume offering abortion care in Missouri. PP The “Show Me” state has been a battleground for reproductive rights for more than a decade. Last November, Missouri voters passed an amendment to their state constitution to add the right to abortion and reproductive health care protections. Thank you to Democrats in Missouri and around the country who have supported the will of the people in preserving reproductive rights.
