MU in Flint: what Happened at Last Night’s Justice Assembly Meeting

MU in Action

Even though it was hot, we still had the Flint Justice Assembly—and it went really well! Despite the heat, 19 of our 31 signups came to the event; our thanks to them.

At the event, Sebastian James, Data & Technology Manager at MU presented on the Big Beautiful Bill Act. He used a new and cool A.I. tool that helps answer questions about it.

Then Adonis Flores, MU's Training Director, reminded us how to have good one-on-one conversations and even showed us how it’s done. Thanks to both of them for making everything clear and helpful.

We want to say "congratulations" to the 21 people who finished the Organizing 1.0 training. If you're interested, Organizing 1.0 is learning about community power, telling our stories, and connecting with our neighbors. Eight of our supporters received a special shoutout and certificates of completion!

Thanks to everyone who was part of it—you’re helping us do amazing things together!

PS: Big shoutout to Charles for helping out, especially for giving a ride to one of our leaders and a new friend who wants to join.

19 people came out in 90-degree heat to change their community.

Mop Up Michigan

Michigan’s government should work for people, not powerful corporations.

Whether you’ve got five minutes or five hours, your time matters. We’re going to need volunteers to collect signatures, knock doors, spread the word, and help bring this ballot initiative to life.

Care Over Cost

We hold health insurers accountable for covered but unpaid benefits. Together, we are working to transform our health care system to put people over profit.

Transformative Justice

We believe that we can keep our communities safe from crime and reduce the number of people in prison. We're working to reform the policies of the police, schools, prosecutors, as well as reform sentencing guidelines and improve release services.

Election Protection

We're on a mission to safeguard the integrity of every election, ensuring that the democratic process remains fair, accessible, and representative of all voices.

Immigrant Rights

Join us in our fight for a brighter future, where every person, regardless of their immigration status, is afforded the same rights, opportunities, and respect as any other Michigander.
