Public policy is reshaping daily life: costs, care, safety, and dignity. This open call welcomes everyone - clergy and non-clergy, people of any faith or no faith, and those people most impacted by the government shutdown - to understand what is happening now and how we can respond together.

--We must demand an open government that serves the people.

--We must save health care and defend the vulnerable.

--We must stop the attacks on immigrants and protect human dignity.

At this teach-in, we will clarify what is at stake, present plain facts and firsthand testimonies, and coordinate disciplined, nonviolent action.

We will address shutdown disruption, rising healthcare costs, and attacks on immigrants, then align on practical next steps through your state delegation.

Why join this teach-in?

--Get a concise briefing on current harms and their human impact.

--Hear voices directly affected, and what they need now.

--Leave with an action plan to connect with a state delegation.

Founded in 2015 by the Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II, Repairers of the Breach uses grassroots power to combat immoral and illegal policies on labor rights, voting rights, LGBTQ+ rights, healthcare, criminal justice, and other policies that negatively impacted poor and marginalized communities in the state. Today, we sustain a national moral movement united across race, class, gender identity, sexuality, ethnicity, faith, and other divisions, with the goal of repairing the breaches caused by centuries of systemic oppression and injustice in our country. Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II is also co-founder of the Poor People's Campaign.
