he US had an immigration system where most people showed up for their immigration appointments and followed the rules. Now, folks are arrested at these appointments and held without access to attorneys or due procress. No doubt people will exercise their democratic rights and protest this sort of
The President is not a King. We have a system of checks and balances to protect us from a branch of government that is abusing power. The orders of the judiciary MUST be followed to preserve the rule of law. Immediately strike language from the budget bill that would prohibit contempt charges, in
The budget passed by the Republican House is a disaster. It takes away health care from millions of Americans, slashes education, housing, public radio, and clean energy, bans states and localities from regulating AI, and places the president above the law by declaring he doesn't have to follow ruli
Restore independence and integrity of ACIP
As your constituent, I am writing to express my alarm with the unprecedented interference of RFK Jr. in the ACIP advisory committee. For nearly 70 years, ordinary citizens like me have relied on the unbiased scientific evaluation by the ACIP to make decisions about vaccines that our families rely on
Call for National Guard to stand down; Stop the masked, warrantless ICE arrests
The excessive use of force and escalation by deploying 2,000 National Guard troops against protesters in Los Angeles is an alarming authoritarian overreach by the President and his regime. This unnecessary military response to largely peaceful protests risks further inflaming tensions and eroding th
Reinstate USNS Harvey Milk to honor LGBTQ legacy
The decision to remove Harvey Milk's name from the USNS Harvey Milk, a naval vessel named to honor the pioneering LGBTQ rights activist and Navy veteran, is deeply concerning. Milk's legacy as one of the first openly gay elected officials in the United States and his tireless advocacy for equality a
Please vote against the supposed "Big Beautiful Bill." This morning, my scripture readings began with one reminding me to take care of the widows and poor. The second reminded me of the fooly of laying up earthly treasures. The "BBB" is wrong on both counts. Do you believe in the word of God? Then
End unethical DNA collection from migrant children
The mass collection and storage of DNA from migrant children in a criminal database is a disturbing violation of civil liberties and genetic privacy. Cataloging the genetic material of minors who have not committed any crimes sets a dangerous precedent of genetic surveillance and presumption of futu
Preserve vital Bird Banding Laboratory for avian conservation
The Bird Banding Laboratory (BBL) at the U.S. Geological Survey plays a critical role in facilitating research and conservation efforts for migratory birds across North America. Its comprehensive database of banding records, spanning over a century, provides invaluable insights into migration patter
Push back on the updated COVID vaccine guidance (made without going through the normal process) that removes pregnant women and children and limits vaccine access to people over 65 or with medical conditions that increase the risk of severe illness or death.

Over 286,00 students in Ohio received special education or related services in the 23-24 school year. Federal and state-level cuts threaten these services. Please oppose all cuts. If you do not oppose cuts, please meet with constituents to tell us how the State of Ohio is going to make sure these
The Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) program has provided life-saving assistance to more than 70,000 households experiencing or at risk of homelessness and fleeing domestic violence. However, funding for the EHV program is insufficient to cover the continued cost of assistance, putting this vital p
The Big Beautiful Bill is ugly for those of us who follow the teachings of Jesus and the message of God. Throughout the Bible, we are exorted to take ca re of the poor. This ugly bill takes money and services from the poor and gives the savings to the very richest. This is clearly against the Wor
There is nothing beautiful about this current bill. It is a reallocation of wealth to the wealthy. And again, calling a vote at 0100 just goes to show how petty your party is and doesn't care about their constituents. Can't wait for the auto-reply email. Your party doesn't give a care about anyone b
Please don't make cuts in education as proposed in the so-called Big Beautiful bill. Education needs MORE support. Not less. Thank you.
The American people do not support ICE's overreach. Deporting people for speeding tickets, the charge of entering the country illegally, or speaking out at protests is not what we want from our government. Due process is a right, not a privilege to be bestowed on those the administration deems wort
Stop the short-sighted and costly cuts in science funding. Economists estimate that a 25% cut in science funding will result in a GDP decline in magnitude to the 2018 recession; a 75% cut to government science funding is estimated to trigger the largest GDP decline since the Great Depression. These
