Our democracy is under threat, but we will not yield to an authoritarian takeover. We are standing together and fighting back in defense of our rights, our communities, and our values. Please join us!
Weekly protests in Freeport:
NOTE- Schedule and locations are changing as we get further into the winter season. We’ll do our best to keep this website updated when and if changes occur.
MONDAY through FRIDAY, 3:00-4:30 PM “Rush Hour Bridge Brigade” AT TWO FREEPORT LOCATIONS!! Take your pick:
Desert Road/Exit 20 overpass (Bill will be anchoring here)
Mallet Drive/Exit 22 overpass (Sally will be anchoring here)
TUESDAYS, 7:30-8:30 AM “Stop Fossil Fuel Investment” protest at LL Bean Corporate Offices Corner of Main and Casco St.
TUESDAYS, 8:00am-10:00 AM Corner of Main and School St. (run by “Visibility Freeport”)
SATURDAYS, 11:00-12:30 Rte.1/Desert Road intersection (near the “Welcome To Freeport” sign/across from the Shaw’s shopping center)
Please participate whenever you can. As this protest movement evolves, an understanding has grown that we are more likely to convince other people by showing that we support things that they support, rather than by expressing our outrage over a political figure. To that end, some ideas for signage include (but are definitely NOT limited to): ”Protect the Constitution,” “Due Process for All,” “Defend Free Speech,” “Stop Project 2025,” “Save Veterans’ Benefits,” “Save our National Parks,” “Protect Medical Research…”

A crucial bill, LD 1383, is still active and NEEDS MASS SUPPORT. Consider testifying in person on Weds, Jan. 21 at 11:00 AM or online. See HERE for all kinds of help regarding testifying on this topic.
Additionally, please write a quick letter today to end our complicity with funding harmful corporations. Did you know our state has $19 million invested in Palantir and a $141 million dollar fund with Signature Aviation shares? These are corporations that make weapons/technology for world genocides and fuel a majority of ICE deportation flights? THe Maine Coalition for Peace and Human Rights provides talking points and background research to make it easy. Write a letter to your rep today please!
On Tuesday, January 20, 2026, at 2 PM local time, the Free America Walkout is a coordinated, nationwide act of nonviolent noncooperation.
It’s a simple idea: step away from work, school, and/or commerce at the same time, in whatever way is realistic and safe, so refusal becomes visible together.
Official hub for the Walkout: https://www.freeameri.ca
POSTCARDS TO CONGRESS
Join in on this mass, coordinated postcard mailing campaign to flood Congress to prove that the majority of US citizens stand for progress. The goal: Mail 1,000,000 postcards to Congress in sustained monthly waves. We mail TOGETHER on the first of every month (but if you miss the 1st, better late than never).
Click on the link for more info and to order or print postcards: SignsofJustice.com/collections
Greater Freeport Indivisible is also keeping a supply of both postcards (seen above) on hand, so if you’d like, you can contact us using the Contact page of this website to ask for a few cards.

WHAT’S THE PLAN? A Weekly Discussion with Indivisible’s Co-Founders
Thursdays, 3:00-4:00 PM
Sign up HERE.
The onslaught of news, the chaos coming out of the White House – it’s all meant to overwhelm us. It’s a deliberate strategy to sow confusion and make us believe we are powerless to fight back.
The antidote: Coming together in community to process what’s happening, to sift through what’s important and what’s just noise, and coalesce around strategies for fighting back.
Join Indivisible co-founders Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin each week, as they carve out an hour to discuss what’s happening and – more importantly – what’s the plan.
FYI— These sessions are recorded so can be viewed at a later time if you are not able to make it at 3:00.
