INDIVISIBLE
NORTH COAST OREGON
INCO is a small but mighty all-volunteer organization. Together we stand up for human rights and resist authoritarian overreach. There is a place for everyone in this fight.
Community Sing!
Join the Vocal Uprising Songleaders in singing together easy-to-learn songs of the resistance.
Friday, Sept 11, 5:30-6:15
Garden of Surging Waves, 10th and Duane, Astoria
Vocal Uprising is a community-powered chorus where people come together to raise their voices for courage, connection, and joy. Led by a small team of song leaders, we draw from the Singing Resistance movement that emerged in Minneapolis, MN during Operation Metro Surge, the violent federal immigration operations during the winter of 25/26 (and ongoing). Singing Resistance groups are springing up all over the country. We are proud to be one of them.
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

September 15 — Port of Astoria Board of Commissioners
4:00 pm • 422 Gateway Ave, Suite 100
We’re asking community members to attend, and a few volunteers to offer public comment. Your presence signals that the Port Authority must follow Oregon law and protect our immigrant neighbors. If you’re willing to speak, let us know and we’ll share guidance.
Background: In June, an ICE operation occurred on Port property, and state employees appear to have assisted, a violation of Oregon’s Sanctuary Law. A state investigation is underway. More info: https://www.opb.org/article/2026/06/08/astoria-oregon-ice-operations-spark-concerns-sanctuary-law/
September 21 * Astoria City Council
6:00 pm • City Hall, 1095 Duane Street
Astoria has already passed a resolution condemning ICE’s unlawful actions. We’re urging the Council to strengthen it by adding a ban on ICE detention centers within city limits. Council Member Andrea Mazzarella encouraged community members to attend and show support.
We encourage Astoria residents to speak up during the public comment period. We encourage anyone to show up wearing yellow to show your support.
We will have talking points for those who wish to speak.
Help Elect Cyrus Javadi and Rachel Armitage
Both are opposed by MAGA-aligned folks with BIG budgets.
Indivisible Tillamook Coast Action is inviting INCO volunteers to join them reaching voters in the lead up to the November midterms.
All of the voter contact will be done by text, no need to knock on doors. Training and ongoing support in a method proven to build relationships based on real needs, real hopes and real results. With ongoing training and support, you would spend about 15 hours between 9/1 and 11/3 contacting “your” 50 registered voters, finding out what matters to them, sharing the importance of voting, and reasons to consider support for Javadi and Armitage.
Indivisible Tillamook Coast Action’s goal is to contact 10,500 Democrats and progressive Non Affiliated Voters. Getting out the progressive vote will be the key to a better future for all.

Looking for a
Leadership Liaison to Indivisible National Financial Support

You’ll join a monthly leadership meeting (about 1.5–2 hours), come to 1–2 retreats each year, and spend flexible time exploring Indivisible National’s funding streams whenever inspiration hits. It’s perfect for someone who likes to follow their curiosity, enjoys connecting dots, and wants to work with a smart, spirited, good‑humored crew committed to strengthening democracy on the coast. We are all volunteers. Our compensation is the joy of working together for a shared vision of what our country can be.
Demonstrate for Democracy

Spend some time with other people as concerned as you are who are trying to fix things. There’s a demonstration going on near you.
A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
