Mountaineers Indivisible Citizen Action is a grassroots citizen organization based in Morgantown, West Virginia. We are dedicated to protecting and strengthening our democratic institutions and actively defending our Constitution.
As part of the national Indivisible network, we stand united with thousands of similar groups across the country committed to upholding constitutional principles and democratic values at a time when they face significant challenges. Our members come from diverse political backgrounds but share a common commitment to preserving the democratic foundations that our nation depends upon.
Our mission is to safeguard democratic principles and institutions through organized citizen action, informed advocacy, and community engagement. We believe that democracy requires vigilant protection and active participation from all citizens.
As a nonviolent resistance group, we:
Advocate for Accountability: We contact elected officials at all levels of government, advocating for transparency, adherence to constitutional principles, and equitable policies that benefit all people, not just the privileged few.
Organize Community Actions: We coordinate peaceful demonstrations, town halls, and community forums to hold our elected officials accountable, protect our democracy, and amplify citizen voices. We use the resistance tactics advocated by Indivisible and Gene Sharp's 198 Methods of Nonviolent Action.
Promote Civic Engagement: We encourage voting, participation in local government, and broader civic involvement to elect better leaders who serve the needs of all people.
Provide Community and Hope: We provide mutual support for one another in the face of the havoc perpetrated by anti-democratic forces in our state and country.
We take action when something violates our principles; when a political response can contribute to discourse or policy change, and when there are seven or more members ready to participate in executing an action. Among our other goals, we aim to build our power by bringing more people into our movement.
