If your #AAG2025 session participants are comfortable with the session being recorded so it is accessible to asynchronous attendees please make that change as well. Recording is only available for hybrid and virtual sessions.

If you are hosting a session at #AAG2025 that is solely for participants in Detroit please consider making it hybrid. The meetings team is still willing to make that change now. Sessions that are exclusively in person are only accessible to some conference participants and exclusionary for others.

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage
“Hello there. My name is [your name], I’m a resident of [your state] and I’m calling to ask the Senator to VOTE NO on cloture and VOTE NO on the House-passed Continuing Resolution. This bill is a devastating ratification of the Elon Musk coup and I’m calling to ask you to VOTE NO ON CLOTURE.”

TIAA hosting the Big10 is pure sportswashing. While we cheer on our favorite teams, we can’t let TIAA score points with false advertising. They invest billions in fossil fuels & land grabs that harm Indigenous communities, Black farmers, & the planet. It’s time for TIAA to make a change.

NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment.
Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too.
His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

Vanguard, world’s #1 investor in fossil fuels, is about to have a shareholder meeting. It's an especially opaque company & this shareholder meeting is a rare occurrence – the last time Vanguard had one was in 2017. So, today, we showed up in prayerful action near Vanguard CEO Salim Ramji’s home.
