BIDEN AND DEMS FUND GENOCIDE; STOP

The US government is using our tax dollars to fund the genocide of Palestinians. I demand a comprehensive two-way arms embargo of the israeli apartheid state. Stop funding genocide and war crimes.

All Abortion Restrictions are Fascist

I strongly support full decriminalization of abortion at all points in pregnancy at the federal level. All abortion bans and restrictions are violent, misogynistic, and fascist.

Stop Elon

I’m furious that Elon Musk, an unelected billionaire with no experience in government, is influencing legislation and interfering in budget negotiations. Because of him Congress just passed a funding package with no money for kids’ cancer research, women’s health funding, or SNAP recipients. It is d

House Republicans slipped their bigotry into a must-pass spending bill & it's crucial that the Senate doesn't roll over for it. TriCare must not be barred from providing gender-affirming care to minors. I don't appreciate them taking basic freedom of choice away from parents who serve. We trust th

Don't Abdicate Your Duty to Vet Trump's Nominees

The Senate must not allow any recess appointments by the president that would circumvent proper vetting and oversight of nominees.

Confirm All Court Appointments

It is imperative that the senate confirm all lower court appointments before the inauguration. Insurrectionist Donald Trump cannot be allowed to fill any of these vacancies. The lower courts provide an important check to slow the authoritarian ambitions of the Trump regime. The senate must confirm a

Please vote against H.R. 9495 and oppose attaching it to any other legislation.

Deny Republican Attacks On Trans Americans Via Spending Bills
