This was a culmination of the political and religious movement, Zionism, which was fou
Israel lies again after they murdered a UN aid worker. The UN gave Israel the coordinates and movement of the clearly marked UN vehicle that was carrying UN staff in southern Gaza. Israel claims they had “not been made aware of the route of the vehicle”. And now, another event of Israel targeting a

Age and term limits of judges and elected officials are absolutely necessary
The unrestrained accumulation of power and the erosion of democratic norms pose grave threats to the integrity of our republic. Unchecked executive authority enabled the previous administration's disturbing authoritarian overtures and subversions of the rule of law. To safeguard our liberties, we mu
Over 300,000 people, who are being starved to death, are frantically fleeing Rafah with no where safe to go. Israel is carpet bombing the entirety of the Gaza strip. What do you expect them to do? How do you not see that all of Israel's actions demonstrate it's intention to commit genocide and ethni
I am one of your constituents in Austin, TX. I am writing today to implore you to take immediate action to safely return the over 1,000 US troops stranded in Niger. I have grave concerns over the profound lack of supplies including food, water, and medication. Timely troop rotation is not occurrin
Investigate alleged Gaza atrocities, preserve evidence urgently

Urgent call for ceasefire, peace through justice and human rights

Stop the killing in Gaza, please
Please push harder for a ceasefire in Gaza. I cannot watch the continuous murder of innocent civilians in the name of “self-defense”. Killing children is not self defense. Please put a stop to this madness, I beg you.
Halt military aid enabling civilian harm in Rafah
The United States should not provide weapons or military support to Israel for any offensive operations that could endanger civilian lives. The alarming potential for civilian casualties in a major Israeli invasion of the densely populated city of Rafah is unacceptable. Withholding military aid that

UNWORTHY BEHAVIOUR
Greetings. I am a voting constituent in rural west Texas. A short note on the persistent headlines we keep reading. If a candidate for ANY political office is unable to commit to the results of an election, they should be barred from seeking office. This is the worst form of political pandering,
IT’S NOT HIS TO SELL
Greetings. I am a voting constituent in rural west Texas. Nothing like waking up to read that DJT is busily, blatantly selling the office of the president if he actually wins come November. Lobbying a gathering of oil and gas executives to chip in to get him re-elected and he will give them whateve
Conditioning military aid enables Israeli forces' abuses in Palestine.
Blinken's decision to continue military aid to Israeli units involved in credible reports of serious human rights violations against Palestinians enables further atrocities with impunity. The meager punishments, such as community service for killing an unarmed Palestinian, undermine the Leahy Laws'
Seek peaceful resolution for Gaza, prioritize civilians' safety
The situation in Gaza and the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas is deeply concerning from a humanitarian standpoint. The potential escalation of military action in Rafah raises fears of further loss of civilian life and displacement. While a comprehensive resolution remains elusive, prioriti

URGENT: Immediate Action Needed to Halt Ground Invasion in Rafah
I write to you today with the utmost urgency regarding the escalating situation in Rafah. Despite warnings from its allies, Israel has initiated a ground invasion into Rafah, exacerbating an already dire humanitarian crisis. Mere months ago, Israel issued evacuation orders for millions of people to
ISRAEL CLOSES RAFAH CROSSING - ACT NOW
Israel has initiated a deadly ground invasion into Rafah, resulting in the loss of hundreds of lives, including men, women, and children. Many leaders considered a Rafah incursion to be a “RED LINE” that Israel must not cross, and therefore I implore you to back the implementation of sanctions again
Make saving social security a priority
Social Security is facing a serious financial crisis that demands immediate action from Congress. The recent report from the Social Security trustees predicts the program's funds will be depleted by November 2033, less than a decade away. At that point, automatic benefit cuts will be triggered unles
Today, 5/5, Israel is continuing the barbaric assault on southern Gaza. Areas just east of Rafah are being bombed as I write this at 7:30 AM CT. It is not yet known the number who have been murdered and injured. This is only hours after Israel bombed multiple homes in Rafah itself. Approximately 1.4
Uphold press freedom, reconsider Al Jazeera office shutdown
The threat to press freedom extends beyond Israel's actions against Al Jazeera. The United States must also actively safeguard journalistic independence and reject any attempts at censorship or media suppression within its own borders. Protecting the ability of domestic and international media to op
The videos and images of the Palestinian children who are being starved to death by Israel should haunt every human being with a conscience and basic morality. One of the most recent I've seen of a child near death's door was shared maybe a month ago now, who was receiving the limited medical treatm
Bodily autonomy must be federally guaranteed in the USA
The recent overturning of Roe v. Wade has severely restricted reproductive rights across many states. This concerning development undermines the fundamental principle of bodily autonomy and jeopardizes the well-being of countless individuals. I urge you to support efforts to enshrine the right to ab

WHEN IS ENOUGH ENOUGH?
