From a constituent in Brownsville, TNBlock Federal Troops and ICE From Polling Locations
You need to support legislation banning federal troops and ICE from polling locations. Republican members of the Senate Armed Services Committee just voted down two amendments to the NDAA that would have done exactly that — on a straight party-line vote. That should alarm every elected official who
From a constituent in Nashville, TNSTOP Supporting Illicit Markets and Reverse the THCA ban
This version is under 350 words: Tennessee lawmakers should regulate THCA responsibly instead of banning it. A prohibition will not eliminate demand. It will remove legal safeguards such as laboratory testing, accurate labels, age verification, product traceability, accountable retailers, and cons
From a constituent in Brownsville, TNSupport the Six Figure Limit on Social Security Benefits and Raise the Income Cap
Social Security is heading toward insolvency within 7 years, and Congress needs to act now.

From a constituent in Nashville, TNI'm writing to ask that Sen. Blackburn and Sen. Hagerty oppose the $200 million cuts to the WIC program in the House-passed 2027 Agriculture appropriations bill. Cuts to WIC program endanger the health of pregnant people, new parents, and young children. Thank you for your time and consideration.
From a constituent in Brownsville, TNRaise the Social Security Payroll Cap Now
Raise the cap on Social Security payroll withholding. The trustees report just moved the OASI trust fund depletion date to late 2032 — three months earlier than last year's projection — and the chief actuary has already flagged that Trump's tax law is making things worse. This is your job. Fix it.
From a constituent in Knoxville, TNIsrael needs to be stopped

From a verified voter in Rockvale, TNSupport H.R. 887 to Investigate and Stop Grocery Price Gouging
Co-sponsor and push H.R. 887, the Lower Grocery Prices Act, out of committee.

From a constituent in Brownsville, TNBlock Bill Pulte's Appointment as Acting DNI
Do everything in your power to block Bill Pulte from serving as Director of National Intelligence. Trump himself admitted the appointment "is not going to be permanent" — so why are we gambling national security on a housing finance regulator with zero intelligence experience while tensions with Ira
From a constituent in Brownsville, TNCosponsor the Meeks Ukraine Aid Bill and Vote Yes
The House just passed Rep. Gregory Meeks' Ukraine aid bill 226-195, and the Senate needs to act. Cosponsor this legislation and vote yes. It provides over $1 billion in security and reconstruction aid and makes another $8 billion available in defense loans — real support for a country that has been
From a constituent in Brownsville, TNOppose the $1.776 Billion Trump Slush Fund
Your vote against banning the $1.776 billion "anti-weaponization" fund is an embarrassment, and your constituents are watching. This isn't a close call. Critics from both parties have called it exactly what it is: a slush fund to reward Trump's allies and hand him and his family permanent immunity f
From a constituent in Oak Ridge, TNNo IRS immunity for Trump
Please do not allow Trump, his family, and businesses to be immune from IRS audits. He and his family have benefitted greatly from his time in office and much of that money was illegally obtained. Remember the emoluments clause? They should, at the very least, pay taxes on those ill-gotten gains.
From a constituent in Nashville, TNStop giving money to ICE!

From a constituent in Brownsville, TNLift the Payroll Tax Cap to Protect Social Security
Vote to lift the payroll tax cap so that billionaires and the ultra-wealthy pay into Social Security on every dollar they earn, just like the rest of us do. Right now, someone making $170,000 a year pays the same Social Security payroll tax as someone making $170 million. That's indefensible, and it
From a constituent in Greeneville, TNVote NO on Section 224: No U.S.–Israel Military Integration
I am writing to demand that you oppose any legislation that further integrates the United States military, intelligence apparatus, or defense industry with that of Israel. Your duty is to the Constitution and the American people. It is not to a foreign government, regardless of who that government
From a constituent in Knoxville, TNGlobal Sanctions and Arms Embargo on IOF now
The IOF is now ordering an “evacuation” of almost 1 million people out of Lebanon’s capital, who warned they would soon be bombing densely populated neighborhoods, displacing those from south Lebanon for the 4th time in less than a year.

From a constituent in Nashville, TNI'm writing to urge Rep. Rose, Sen. Blackburn, and Sen. Hagerty to support legislation to block the creation of a $1.8 billion slush fund for Trump's political allies. This fund is blatantly corrupt and will funnel taxpayer dollars to convicted criminals and insurrectionists at the expense of the Am
From a constituent in Brownsville, TNTax Billionaires to Address the National Debt Crisis
The national debt has now surpassed U.S. GDP for the first time since World War II, and the response cannot be to gut programs that working people depend on. The fix starts with making billionaires and the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share. Net interest payments on the debt already exceed $1 trill
From a constituent in Brownsville, TNSupport the Bill to Block Trump's Triumphal Arch Project
Co-sponsor or publicly back the House Democrats' bill to block Trump's triumphal arch project.

From a constituent in Brownsville, TNRaise the Social Security Tax Cap to Address the Debt Crisis
The national debt just crossed 100 percent of GDP for the first time since 1946, and Congress keeps deferring the hard choices.

From a verified voter in Vonore, TNDo not cut the gas tax
Leave the gas tax intact. We do not need to cut any funding to roads at a time of record growth. Best thing you can do now is to raise the minimum wage.
