Protect the Right to Vote and Fair Representation

I am writing to express my concern about the Supreme Court gutting the Voting Rights Act and allowing states to deny minority populations fair representation. I ask that the representative speak out against this clearly political attack on our democracy and our constitutional rights by: (1) Supp

Stop the $350 Billion Defense Spending Loophole

I am writing to express my firm opposition to the administration's proposal to fund $350 billion of the $1.5 trillion fiscal year 2027 defense request through the budget reconciliation process. This is not a disagreement over tactics; it is a direct assault on the Power of the Purse granted to Congr

No on HR 7661

Do not allow HR 7661 to come to pass. It does not keep kids safe, as it says it will. It defunds libraries and uses a vague definition of “sexually explicit material” as a means to ban any reference to LGBTQ+ individuals and erase their lived experience. Passing it is educational malpractice and doe

Expel Representative Max Miller due to Domestic Violence. Survivors of Domestic Violence need legal protection, we should NOT be tolerating abusers to hold positions of power in government, nor to be held up as heroes in other public arenas. Thank you

Trump is mentally sick. When will the GOP step in for his own benefit? He is poisoning the culture and society with his unhinged ranting and raving. Why have you turned your back on the American people? Governing is not creating a one party state. That is a Dictatorship!!!!! You are all part of t

First, Rep.

First, I’m calling to oppose Republicans reconciliation bill, which would give 1B for Trump’s ballroom and 70B to ICE and CBP. These agencies are out of control, lawless, and despised by the vast majority of Americans. Any lawmaker who votes to give them more money will get voted out. As for the bal

Oppose any effort to pass the "Clean Water For All Life Act!"

As a woman who has suffered an unexpected miscarriage (in the bathroom at my workplace) I am so angry to see the "Clean Water For All Life Act" Introduced by Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL), Diana Harshbarger (R-TN), and Sheri Biggs (R-SC). After I had a miscarriage at work, I was so shaky that I couldn't

Pete Hegseth needs to be fired. It's a complete embarrassment what has happened in the United States of America.

President Trump might not spend any of his time thinking about how to relieve the burden of inflation on Virginians, but I do. My family doesn't eat out anymore. We don't buy steak anymore. We don't go to see movies in the theater anymore. If Trump is too busy being an out-of-touch billionaire to ad

NO to the Ballroom Bill

I strongly oppose Republicans’ so-called “Ballroom Bill,” which gives more money to ICE, CBP, and Trump’s hated ballroom while adding 71B to the deficit. Americans are dying for lack of healthcare, we can’t afford groceries, we can’t pay our utility bills, can’t put gas in our cars. That money shoul

Despite bipartisan support for a Senate-passed bill that would have restored funding for all Department of Homeland Security departments except Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and much of Customs and Border Patrol (CBP), Republicans have failed to end the longest partial government shutdow

On April 29th, the Supreme Court handed down a 6-3 ruling, made along ideological lines, that further diminished the Voting Rights Act (VRA). While the Supreme Court has gradually struck down parts of the VRA over the last couple of decades, the ruling in Louisiana v. Callais effectively invalidates

STOP TRUMP’S TYRANNY ON TRANS PEOPLE!

You Started a War of Choice and Left Americans to Pay for It

You campaigned on keeping America out of unnecessary wars. You won, in part, because millions of Americans believed you.

In addition to vigorously condemning the Republican reconciliation (racist mass deportation and Marie Antionette Epstein Ballroom) bill, I urge you to cosponsor Sen. Warren’s Stop the Tax Cheaters bill. It’s brilliant.
