Vote NO on Budget Reconciliation

Vote NO on the corrupt budget reconciliation bill. The rider guaranteeing that Artificial Intelligence cannot be restricted by the states, meaning disenf ranchisement of the Citizenry to defend corporate interests, must be defeated. AI is already harming artists, writers, teachers ,and students by t

Concerns about proposed legislation in the budget reconciliation bill

I am writing today to voice my deep concerns about some of the proposed legislation by the House Natural Resources Committee in the budget reconciliation bill. This bill is reckless and unprecedented in its elimination of key environmental protections and sell-off of our public lands to the oil an

Stop rendition of migrants to Libya

I am a constituent writing to insist you raise a blaring alarm about the Trump regime’s plan to deport migrants to Libya and Rwanda. The person the regime is negotiating this horror with is not even a recognized government but a warlord not recognized by the UN. Our own State Department has reported

Washington won't survive another 100 days

Washington won't survive another 100 days of this unlawful and unrestricted chaos. Judges in jail, lack of due process, cecot detention, Medicaid, Social security and SNAP, school cuts, and deporting citizens and legal residents like Mr Garcia. Lawmakers like yourselves, especially those from blue a

Careful approach needed for IGO Anti-Boycott Act impacts

The IGO Anti-Boycott Act could have serious implications for small businesses that oppose human rights violations and speak out against actions like the genocide in Gaza. Extending anti-boycott provisions to international organizations threatens to punish companies for taking ethical stances on impo

Reject public broadcasting funding cuts, protect NPR and PBS

The White House's plan to ask Congress to rescind $1.1 billion in funding for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is deeply concerning. This move could effectively eliminate almost all federal support for essential public media organizations like NPR and PBS, which provide invaluable educational

Oppose age limit increases to SNAP

I am your constituent and I am very worried about the proposed age limit increases to SNAP. Increasing the time limit to those who are 64 years old and parents of children over 7 is wrong. Grocery prices and hunger are increasing in the country and these measures would result in older adults and you

JB is the fire Schumer needs, FIGHT - budget, CMS, FTC's Sherman Act

Schumer needs to go. AOC, Booker, Warren, Sanders, and JB pritzger are right, now is the time to fight. I want AOC in '28 - she's a fighter with ++policy. JB's message is spot-on and he's pressing for '28 too. We need the DNC to fight hard and fight now. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zMndfvxVeRo

The budget doesn't need +controversy, keep FTC Sherman Act change out

Don't allow Jim Jordan to transfer FTC Sherman act/Section 5 authority to DOJ - it will gut the tiny bit of antitrust progress we've made and benefit amazon and pharmacy benefit managers. We desperately need a stronger FTC and antitrust regulation, not a transfer that will destroy efficiency and aut

Deeply concerned about FDA

I am deeply concerned about what is happening with the FDA shutting down so many facilities. There have been so many recalls on food, and with the way our system is set up, there is truly no way for anyone anywhere in the country to be absolutely sure that they will be safe. We get our meat and prod

Protect Our Medical Data and Respect Neurodiversity

I am reaching out as a constituent as I have urgent concerns regarding Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s reported creation of an autism database that collects sensitive medical and behavioral data—apparently without proper consent or oversight. These actions not only constitute a gross invasion of medical p

Safety net can't be cut in budget negotiations

Protect safety net from budget cuts. Medicaid, snap, liheap, SSA, head start and other safety net components are critical to protect from Trump's budget. Use every procedural delay and negotiate with colleagues to protect this economic floor.

Shadow cabinet, Schumer, procedures, vote suppression

So much gets lost in the media flooding technique and nothing is resolved on huge issues. We still need a shadow cabinet, schumer must still go, signalgate still needs a real investigation, gerrymandering/vote supresson cases still need far more scrutiny, and we still need more procedural delays and

Budget fight - we need you to protect a safety net more than ever. Medicaid, ssa, Medicare, snap, head start, public schools, usps, others, and cfpb financial protections.

Defend democracy, uphold civil liberties, pursue Trump's impeachment

The Democratic Party's refusal to forcefully oppose Trump's growing authoritarianism, such as sending people to foreign prisons without due process, allows the erosion of civil liberties and democratic norms.

Okay, this is it. The president is now officially lawless. By ignoring the Supreme Court, his actions have become undeniably impeachable. Will the Congress intervene, or will it take the military? Is this who we have become? If due process means nothing, we are all in grave danger. Do something- AN
