#stop kosa

Please call your Senators about these bills, and tell them to oppose these bills. Call, email, fax everyday to bring attention to how this is STRONGLY unfavored by constituents. While I’m not 100% sure, I did see some vids that the kids acts is not favored by the senate.

OmarBigSister has a beacons (linktree) in their bio that will help with calling your local senators, as well as email. If you want to leave a voicemail for those that are nervous about someone picking up, call after 8pm (that’s what I do). Google doc provides a script that you can use. They have information on KOSA.

Cloud or Princeofcloudcity is also someone who has information of KOSA and other internet bills.

I'm not sure how true that is but I really hope kosa doesn't pass

This is a major victory: two San Francisco gay bars just announced they’ll stop using AI-powered face scanners, after sustained pressure from our boycott campaign against AI surveillance in venues.1 Pressure from folks like you—along with the 300+ artists and venues who signed our pledge— made this happen. Now, we’re moving fast to seize this moment and get this dangerous tech out of even more venues.2

Can you make a donation of any size today? Anything you can spare helps us leverage this win into a nationwide movement that eradicates invasive facial recognition at events.

DONATE TO BAN AI SURVEILLANCE

As a fast-moving crew led by artist-organizers, Fight for the Future is the only group that’s really positioned to do this type of activism x culture campaigning. We’ve been bringing creators and artists into our anti-surveillance fights for years, and we know that, especially when it comes to live performance spaces, they are critical advocates. Our ability to organize the right audiences and get attention on these issues in the press is key to achieving wins like this.

But we also deeply rely on the support of folks like you to make all this organizing work possible. So if you're down to throw in the cost of a cover charge per month to help us leverage this win, we can’t thank you enough. An AI surveillance dystopia is not inevitable. We’ll keep fighting to get this tech out of our communities and hope you’ll join us. With gratitude, Reem at Fight for the Future P.S. If you haven’t already, make sure to share the pledge to boycott AI surveillance in venues with your favorite artists and spaces.

I knew a while back woe v wade was slightly overturned and left by the states, and recently a call involving Todd Blanche was leaked and he said he wanted to permanently ban abortion across the state.... This I will take seriously and I want you guys too, even if some of you don't support abortion please do not take away other women's freedom to have them that's not right. I don't know how much can be done yet but I heavily, heavily, want you guys to please contact someone, your senators or representatives or someone you know that is in charge and ask, plead, beg, bother them to not let this happen. Again, I am new to doing this as well but we have to make our voices heard before it even starts getting bad so I beg of you to do whatever you can to stop this via emails or calls to your states senators or representatives. I don't like getting political, I really have been trying to be positive and be grateful for those being respectful towards me, thank you all so much you're all so great, but right now isn't a great time and I am so sorry, please do not give up, sisters have to stay together and fight for each other and brothers out there please help us because I know you care about us too.
