The preface to Heather’s Letter tonight was her video chat this afternoon [5/11/2021]. She asked and answered if she is worried about the Republican Party’s attack on democracy: “Yes, I am.”
And she continued:
“We need to make our voices heard about the balance of this democracy, or we’re going to lose it.”
“Changing the public conversation changes the future.”
“Write to your Congress critters and newspapers, especially your local newspapers.”
Write to which Congress critters? She suggested writing to the reachable Republicans, like those who are retiring or up for re-election in 2022, such as Burr in North Carolina, Murkowski in Alaska (opposed by Trump), and Tooney in Pennsylvania.
Ready to walk the talk? Interested in community with fellow HCR Substackers, sharing resources, and joining grassroots organizations in support of democracy? Hone your letter writing and phone calling skills and coach others to make our actions effective? A bunch have already signed up and others are already doing so. (Want to invite others to come aboard?)
Heather concluded, “It’s time to put shoulders to the wheel. Do I think we can do it? Yeah, one hundred percent!”

My husband and I listened to her this afternoon. Never heard her so adamant. I'll be writing letters today.
This is what standing together means. For a start.
