2018-02-06Tell MoCs to denounce “the memo” and protect Mueller’s investigation
- Sen. Harris: (202) 224-3553
- Sen. Feinstein: (202) 224-3841
- Rep. Garamendi: (202) 225-1880
Hi! I’m a constituent from [zip code] and my nam is _____.
I’m calling because I’m really disappointed that this Nunes memo is getting so much attention. It’s a see-through political stunt to hurt the Mueller investigation and shield Trump from accountability. I’m calling on {PERSON} to speak out and to denounce “the memo”. I would like to see {PERSON} publicly state that using this “memo” as an excuse to fire Rosenstein or Mueller are red lines and that the memo is a Republican PR stunt and not an excuse to obstruct justice.
In addition, I think that {PERSON} should read the Democratic rebuttal memo into the congressional record. The Constitution protects them from liability in sharing that information, even if it’s classified. We need to have that context in order to counter the misinformation of the Nunes “memo.”
Tell MoCs to support a “clean” DREAM Act
- Sen. Harris: (202) 224-3553
- Sen. Feinstein: (202) 224-3841
- Rep. Garamendi: (202) 225-1880
My name is ____ and my zip code is _____.
I’m calling on {PERSON} to support a “clean” DREAM Act only. Dreamers are being deported and Trump and the GOP aren’t doing anything to clean up the mess Trump made when he ended DACA in September. We need Congress to fix Trump’s mess, but we can’t let Trump use Dreamers as hostages for his extreme immigration plans, which is why we won’t accept anything less than a “clean” Dream Act.
If this has not been resolved by the time of the budget vote, don’t vote for a budget or CR unless it includes a clean Dream act.
Tell MoCs to prevent increases in military spending
- Sen. Harris: (202) 224-3553
- Sen. Feinstein: (202) 224-3841
- Rep. Garamendi: (202) 225-1880
Hello, I am a constituent from zip code ____. I am also a member of Indivisible.
I am asking the Senator to stay strong in the budget negotiations and not allow military expansion. Social safety net programs, such as Medicaid, Medicare, food stamps, housing subsidies, environmental protection, and more, must not be sacrificed for unnecessary increases in military spending. If preventing cuts to social spending risks a government shutdown, I urge the Senator to take that risk. We must defend the social safety net.
