Silencers = More Deaths. “NO” on the Share Act (HR 3668) – 9/28

Minimal Script: I am calling from [zip code] to urge Rep. [___] to vote “NO” on the Sportsmen’s Heritage and Recreational Enhancement (SHARE) Act (HR 3668).

More script if you want it: This bill deregulates silencers and contains a host of other alarming provisions for weakening federal gun laws. Deregulating silencers is not about protecting sportsmen’s hearing; it’s about increasing profits for gun manufacturers and making us more unsafe.

Rep. Julia Brownley: (CA-26): DC (202) 225-5811, Oxnard (805) 379-1779, T.O. (805) 379-1779

Rep. Salud Carbajal: (CA-24): DC (202) 225-3601, SB (805) 730-1710 SLO (805) 546-8348

Ask Congress to provide immediate relief for Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Also things we can do…

Minimal Script: I’m calling from [zip code] to urge Rep. [___] to immediately pass a hurricane relief package for Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands, including waivers for both the Jones Act and the Federal Matching Requirements.

More script if you want it: It is inexcusable for the federal government to not take swift protective action when millions of Americans are in the midst of a dire humanitarian crisis.

The Dark Side returns. Fight back with your phone!

For those who missed this yesterday, take a moment and mentally thank Jimmy Kimmel for taking time out of his show for this!

Here’s another good video. Remind these senators what they said the last time our health care was at risk.

Step 1 – Put your own oxygen mask on first!

Minimal Script: Hi. I’m from [ZIP] calling to ask Senators [___] to oppose the Cassidy-Graham ACA repeal plan. Congress needs to improve the Affordable Care Act, not repeal it and leave millions of people without options. Thanks!

Senator Feinstein: DC (202) 224-3841, LA (310) 914-7300, SF (415) 393-0707, SD (619) 231-9712, Fresno (559) 485-7430

Vote YES on “Medicare for All”

With the bi-partisan healthcare group disbanded, GOP members are more motivated than ever to pass their horrible Cassidy/Graham bill.

Give your representatives the courage of your convictions! Call and ask them to do the right thing.

Script: I am calling Senator [__] to support the Bernie Sanders “Medicare for All” approach as the best solution for providing universal health care. (S. 1804)

Senator Feinstein: DC (202) 224-3841, LA (310) 914-7300, SF (415) 393-0707, SD (619) 231-9712, Fresno (559) 485-7430

OMG! – “NO!” on Allison Eid for Tenth Circuit Court. She’s on the calendar for Wednesday, so call today!

Our newest Supreme Court justice and dark-money darling, Neil Gorsuch, a fellow Coloradan, favors this judicial nominee. Is it something in the water?

Script: I’m calling to ask Sen. [___] to vote NO on the confirmation of Allison Eid of the US Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.

Additional script if you want: She is a hard-right jurist who has worked to undermine campaign finance laws, funding for public schools, collective bargaining rights for teacher and unions trying to engage in the democratic process. Eid supported corporations’ long-term efforts to make it more difficult for consumers to hold businesses accountable would have allowed a private company to use eminent domain to build a petroleum pipeline. She celebrated cases striking down the ban on guns in school zones and invalidating parts of the Violence Against Women Act. If corporations were ACTUALLY people, she’d be great, but she not an appropriate choice for the rest of us.

Senator Feinstein: DC (202) 224-3841, LA (310) 914-7300, SF (415) 393-0707, SD (619) 231-9712, Fresno (559) 485-7430

Oppose Tax Cuts for the Rich and Corporations. No more blood from us stones…

Script: I’m calling from [zip code] to ask Sen. [___] to vote NO to any budget proposal that makes cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, public education and other services. Tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations at the expense of hard working families is unacceptable.

Additional Script if you want it: I specifically want Sen. [___] to vote against the following:

– any removals or reductions of tax deductions for the working and middle class.
– the continuation of tax loopholes for national and multi-national corporations, including tax havens and misleading subsidiaries.
– a repeal of the Estate Tax, Alternative Minimum Tax, and the ACA Tax on high-income earners, which affect only the very wealthy.

They almost have the 50 votes!

FACT #1: You must be their constituent to be counted.

FACT #2: It’s bad optics if BLUE voters flood RED senators’ lines

FACT #3: Also, it’s a waste of precious time. See Fact #1

FACT #4: There’s no law against encouraging their people to call…

The following is from the national INDIVISIBLE group.

How you can stop TrumpCare from a blue state.

Your tireless (and loud!) constituent power killed TrumpCare in July. And now, millions of people are depending on you to do it again. But if you live in a state with two Democratic Senators who oppose the ACA, you may be asking yourself: what more can I do? How can I influence persuadable Republicans in red states who may be on the fence?

Well, we have an answer! We’re bringing back the blue state/red state calling tool from the last healthcare fight. Continue reading “They almost have the 50 votes!” →
