Call Senator Harris and ask her to co-sponsor the Presidential Conflicts of Interest Act

Donald Trump has repeatedly refused to disclose and divest from any potential financial conflicts of interest. No more stalling! The Presidential Conflicts of Interest Act of 2017 would legally force him to do so. Senator Diane Feinstein is an original cosponsor of this legislation, but Senator Kamala Harris has yet to sign on.  Let’s call her and ask for her support.

Script: I’m calling from (ZIP) to ask (Sen. Harris)  to SUPPORT Senate Bill S65. The President needs to cut ties and come clean as a basic condition of his job.

Reject Trump’s Budget cuts to the NIH; our lives depend on it!

Trump’s proposed 18% budget cuts to the National Institute of Health (NIH) will impact research for cancer, Alzheimer’s, Ebola and Zika vaccines and HIV/AIDS. 90% of the NIH budget is focused on research and is so important, that Congress recently voted them a raise. Vice-President Joe Biden said, “This would set.. biomedical research, back 15 years.”

Call all three Members of Congress

Script: I’m calling to express my support of the National Institute of Health and to request that you protect its funding so that it can continue cutting-edge medical research projects.

Demand an Independent Russian Election Interference Commission! Support S. 27

Ask Senator Kamala Harris to demand a 9/11-style, bipartisan independent commission to investigate Russian election interference. Senator Harris has still not cosponsored S. 27, which would establish an independent commission to investigate Russian election interference. Urge her to do so.

Vote “NO” on Scott Gottlieb to head the FDA! Yet Another Trump Industry Insider

Scott Gottlieb is yet another industry insider nominated by Trump to oversee the companies and investment firms that have paid him millions of dollars. After a lucrative career serving the interests of big-pharma we cannot trust Gottlieb to work in our interests as head of the Food and Drug Administration.

Call Senators Feinstein and Harris!

Script: I’m calling from (ZIP) to ask Senator (Feinstein/Harris) to vote No on Scott Gottlieb to head the FDA. I’m concerned that his allegiance to big-pharma will be stronger than his will to work in the interest of the American people. Thank you.

Urge NO on H.J. Res 36. We can’t afford to rollback regulations of greenhouse gasses (1 of 2 today)

Methane’s impact on climate change is 25 times greater than that of carbon dioxide.  The GOP wants to rescind an Obama-era regulation that cracks down on methane leaks, and that bans the burning off of excess methane during natural gas drilling.  H.J. Res 36 is bad for the environment and wasteful of our country’s natural gas resources.

Call Senators Feinstein and Harris!

Script: I’m calling from (ZIP) to ask Senator (Feinstein/Harris) to vote “NO” on H.J. Res 36. Fight for our right to clean air and environmentally sound management of greenhouse gases.

Support Adam Schiff’s call for Nunes to Step Down – Call your Senators!

The Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Nunes, is himself a member of the transition team being investigated for collusion with Russia. He’s misdirected attention and dismissed evidence, despite the FBI’s assertions to the contrary. He’s improperly briefed Trump and has met with secret sources.

This is what corruption looks like. It’s time for him to step down.

Call Senators Feinstein and Harris!

Emergency Call to Action! Vote is tomorrow! PP is in danger!

Vote NO on Sonny Perdue for Secretary of Agriculture. Whoa. This guy has quite a background. (2 of 3 today)

Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue committed fraud: illegal non-disclosure of assets, false testimony under oath, shady land-deals, illegal manipulation of campaign funds and tax loopholes, and was found guilty repeatedly by his State Ethics Commission. Why give a man known for enriching himself at public expense access to the biggest cookie jar in the world?

Vote “NO” on HR 1430. Protect our air and water! (2 of 2 today)

The new rules and regulations mandated by HR 1430 are not compatible with peer-reviewed science, and add red tape that compromises the ability of the EPA to protect our air and water. Republican lawmakers have no business telling scientists at the EPA how to do their jobs.
