Data centers bad for all

You are going to lose a majority of your voters as you keep on pushing data centers. There have been so many town halls where the communities are 100% against having these data centers built near them. Illinois residents do not want our lands being taken over by data centers. Especially surveillance

No FISA reauthorization or Reconciliation bill w/ ICE & war funds; support S4278

Please oppose a clean reauthorization of Section 702 of FISA. Section 702’s numerous loopholes allow for unwarranted government surveillance and can be easily manipulated at the expense of Americans’ civil liberties. I don't want the government reading my private emails, texts, etc. Vote no unle

Oppose Reconciliation bill with ICE, CBP, & war funding; support S. 4115 & S4278

I heard that Congress is going to put together a new reconciliation bill. It will include more funding for ICE, CBP, and Trump’s illegal war in Iran. I am totally AGAINST funding any of this and hope you are too. What's worse, the funding for ICE; CBP, and the war would be paid for by even more

25th Amendment..... I hope this gets through both the House and the Senate. We need to move forward in this country and start digging ourselves out of the hole that the Trump administration has gotten us into.

NO on FISA & Russian oil waiver, pass DROP, Impeach Trump

I am emailing on several issues. First, there are no excuses for any Member of Congress to support a clean reauthorization of Section 702 and I demand that you vote No on any bills that would reauthorize Section 702 of FISA without meaningful reform. I expect you to to take my privacy seriously

From a verified voter in Gurnee, IL

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I cannot think of a strong enough descriptor for how offended, and astonished, and shocked, and completely furious I am at everything that the president posted online last night between 10 PM and 6 AM this morning. Especially his cartoon of himself as Jes

Nuclear Weapons

Nuclear Weapon facilities have been being targeted in the war in the Middle East. The question heavily weighing on the minds of most Americans. Why is there a double standard when it comes to having, creating, capabilities or just having enriched uranium? There was no international intelligence

Remove the psychotic President

Donald Trump continues to threaten anyone who has any sense of reality, morality and integrity. Over the weekend, Trump has continued to humiliate the American people with his nonsensical rhetoric, lies of what is really happening with his illegal war and anything else to deflect from his sex crim

We do not want JD Vance as President, but we despise Trump more

We know you despise the thought of JD Vance becoming president. We know you are avoiding early impeachment in the fear that we will reelect him and he'll be able to run for 2 additional terms. Usually I tell people to see the big picture, but now, we need accountability. We need the monster out. No

From a constituent in Barrington, IL

Please oppose HB 2851, a proposal that would reclassify a powerful multi-cake explosive firework. The bill would allow these high-intensity devices—just below professional-grade displays like those seen at major venues—to be removed from the “fireworks” category and instead labeled as “novelty” item

Oppose FBI Funding for NSPM-7 Domestic Surveillance Center

Vote no on the FBI's 2027 budget request that funds the NSPM-7 Joint Mission Center. This interagency operation between the FBI, DHS, and DOJ was created by Trump in September to target what his memo defines as domestic terrorism, including "anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity."

No AI photos for house listings

You'll be held accountable for the coverups and crimes against humanity

Why is Epstein alive playing the part of "palm beach Pete", with matching tattoos, teeth- & while Epstein documents confirming he had appointments with a facial reconstruction doctor before "dying"?

Trump sues IRS!

I read in a post by Robert Reich that trump is suing the IRS. If this is true I hope the Democrats are counter suing him to prevent him from scamming more money out of our government. Are you suing? If you are not why not and I respectfully demand you to sue. He is beyond a grifter. He is a trai

Vote No on Unregulated AI
