Interrogate Attorney General Sessions and Deputy Rosenstein. How long has this been going on?

The American people need to keep the pressure on!

The Senate needs to interrogate Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein over Trump’s decision to fire Mr. Comey. How long have there been plans to fire Comey? What part did previously recused Sessions play? Did the decision to fire Comey come from Trump or the Justice Department? We need answers.

Script: I’m calling to demand that the Senate interrogate Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein. They need to explain the true motivations behind Mr. Comey’s firing, and why Sessions participated in this matter, when he should have recused himself.

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

AND Senator Harris: DC (202) 224-3553, LA (213) 894-5000, SAC (916) 448-2787, Fresno (916) 448-2787, SF (415) 355-9041, SD (619) 239-3884

Protect Separation of Church and State. Psst… Donald, this is the important wall!

Trump’s latest Executive Order breaks down the wall between church and state by allowing churches to endorse political candidates. This will allow the special interests behind this to funnel tax-deductible donations through churches. In addition to eroding a fundamental American value, this EO will inject even more dark money into our political process.

Script: I calling to remind Senator (____) that the separation of church and state is a fundamental American value, and Trump’s recent Executive Order threatens it and allows big money another back channel into our political process. Please do what you can in the Senate to preserve the church/state barrier.

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

Stop TrumpCare in the Senate. Thanks, Donald, we’ll have what Australia’s having, please.

Tell the Senate that we will not stand for tax cuts for the wealthy flying under the guise of a repeal and repair of Obamacare. The bill that passed the house will leave millions uninsured, end any guarantee of insurance affordability for people with pre-existing conditions, and cut Medicaid for the most vulnerable. Share your health care needs with your Senator now.

Script: I’m calling to remind Senator (____) that Healthcare is a fundamental human right. Not tax credits. Not health savings accounts. Actual care. For all Americans. We don’t want any compromise on this. Here’s why…(tell your story here).

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

Learn why these events are so important

Let’s support our sister Indivisible groups and gather for a rally and die-in to express our anger regarding all the people in our district who will lose coverage under the new plan.

Savage votes demand a visceral response. Bring tombstone style signs with your message if you want to participate in the die-in. Also, folks in vampire costume (representing Congressional cronies who suck the most vulnerable members of our community dry) are needed.

Zombies are welcome too, because this bill was dead on arrival. We do not buy the story about what a good guy he is for adding $8 billion dollars to a pre-existing conditions pool.

Vote No on the Ridiculous Entitled Idiots Nullifying Safety (& good sense) “REINS” Act

(We corrected their title “Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny” Act) – The REINS Act is an underhanded attempt to hobble the regulatory agencies that keep us safe. It will put workers in danger, loosen pollution safeguards, relax consumer protections and destroy job opportunities in the clean energy economy. We issued a NO on REINS action two months ago for the House, but are repeating it because we suspect it will come up for a Senate vote soon.

Script: I am calling to ask you to vote NO on the REINS Act, S. 21. It would delay or shut down critical new health and safety protections, obstruct laws that Congress has already mandated and oversight of the public’s health and safety in favor of polluter profits.

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

Vote “NO” on Trumpcare 3.0. The Worst. Sequel. Ever.

This time it may actually happen. Republicans are feverishly trying to pass a new bill, which underfunds protections for people with pre-existing conditions, while letting states opt out of full insurance coverage. And without a CBO score, no one knows the extent of the devastation it will cause America’s health care. The vote is scheduled for tomorrow. Urge NO.

Script: I’m calling to ask her to vote NO on this ridiculous Trumpcare bill. It doesn’t even have a CBO report. This whole business smacks of desperation and carelessness with both our health and the economy.

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

We haven’t forgotten about you, Russia. We’re not going away and we want the scandal resolved! (2 of 2)

The Senate Intelligence Committee is stalling on investigating the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, the House Intelligence Committee has imploded, and the White House is stonewalling requests for information about Mike Flynn. An independent non-partisan prosecutor and commission is long overdue, and Senator Harris is not yet on board.

Note: Feinstein/Brownley should be thanked and nudged, and Harris should be nudged.

Script: I’m calling to ask that Senator Harris insists on a non-partisan commission to investigate Russian meddling in our election and that it’s time for this to get started. We’re not going away and we want the scandal resolved.

Call Senator Harris: DC (202) 224-3553, LA (213) 894-5000, SAC (916) 448-2787, Fresno (916) 448-2787, SF (415) 355-9041, SD (619) 239-3884

Keep the Methane Waste Prevention Rule. No deregulation of emissions of this greenhouse gas! (1 of 2)

The House has passed a resolution to repeal the BLM’s methane waste prevention rule; it now heads to the Senate. The rule limits the amount of methane (a powerful greenhouse gas) that can be released on public lands by oil and gas drilling companies. This is just another effort by the GOP to de-regulate emissions and lay waste to the environment. Say “NO” to SJ Res 11.

Script: I’m calling to ask Senator (____) to say NO to the repeal of the BLM’s methane waste prevention rule. Destroying our environment to help the GOP’s corporate friends is unacceptable.

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

AND Senator Harris: DC (202) 224-3553, LA (213) 894-5000, SAC (916) 448-2787, Fresno (916) 448-2787, SF (415) 355-9041, SD (619) 239-3884

Vote “NO” on the Financial Choice Act, HR 10. We’re not in the mood for another Great Recession!

Remember the 2008 financial crisis that nearly tanked the world economy? Congress doesn’t. They want to repeal key parts of Dodd-Frank, including the Volker Rule prohibiting banks from making those risky speculative investments that caused the mess. They also want to prevent the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau from fining institutions for unfair lending practices.

Script: I’m calling to ask Congresswoman Brownley to vote NO on HR 10, the “Financial Choice Act”, the GOP-inspired repeal of the parts of the Dodd-Frank act that endanger our economy while making Trump and his friends rich.

Call Congresswoman Julia Brownley: DC (202) 225-5811, Oxnard (805) 379-1779, T.O. (805) 379-1779
