My name is __________. I am a constituent, and my zip code is _______. I am a member of Indivisible SF.
Thank you for helping Senator Corey Booker conduct his 24 hour speech on Tuesday. [For Sen. Schiff: thank you also for putting a hold on Edward Martin for US Attorney for DC.] I urge the Senator to do more to disrupt Senate business to stop Trump’s agenda.
Background
Spring is here, and we may finally be seeing signs of Democratic Congressmembers growing spines. Yesterday, we saw Sen. Cory Booker giving a marathon floor speech for 25 hours and 5 minutes. Senator Booker’s extended speech served to hold up Senate business and blockade Trump’s agenda. It’s clear that our Senators are hearing the outrage of constituents for their overall weak leadership so far. Senator Booker’s speech and his colleagues’ participation are a great start—we’d love to see more of this.
Both of our senators, Sen. Alex Padilla and Sen. Adam Schiff, helped out by asking questions—allowing Sen. Booker to rest his voice while continuing to hold the floor.
Senator Schiff has also announced a hold on the nomination of Edward Martin for US Attorney for DC, citing his corrupt conduct.
These are the actions our Senators should be taking: speaking out for the people they represent, and using all the powers and procedures available to them to fight for their constituents. We’d love to see both Senator Padilla and Senator Schiff doing more things like this to obstruct the Trump/MAGA agenda.
Call your Senators and tell them: thank you and do more to fight for us!
This Week's US Congressional Call Scripts:
Demand your Congressmember hold hearings on the unlawful reorganization of the US Forest Service.
MAGA Republicans hope to pass the first step of an updated ‘Reconciliation 2.0 Bill’ on the Senate floor this week. Their stated goal is to have it ready for Trump's signature by June 1. So we need to move fast to build opposition and resistance to one-party rule.
The section 702 of FISA (foreign intelligence surveillance act) was passed in 2008 as a counterterrorism measure, but it has a long history abuse because it. Tell Congress to reject reauthorization until it gets reformed!
Over the course of several days, Trump has made repeated, unequivocal threats to commit war crimes. Tell Congress to do its job and hold the executive branch to account!
Our Senators are standing with us.
Congress must hold the Trump/MAGA regime in check, and that includes defending broadcasters’ right to report the news and commentators’ opinions freely and our right to be well informed
Members of Congress must use every lever in their toolbox: from immediate oversight to investigating all the possible corruption the abrupt decision to wage war on Iran to hold this administration accountable and putting an immediate stop to this war. We need to let Congress know we won’t accept anything less.

The manipulatively titled “Stop the Sexualization of Children Act” proposes legislation to withhold federal funding if schools do not comply with the government’s opinion of what children should or should not be allowed to read. Tell Your Representatives: Vote NO on a National Book Ban!
