Call Script
My name is __________. I am a constituent, and my zip code is _______. I am a member of Indivisible SF.
I urge the Representative to do everything in their power to stop the budget bill, which will cut Medicaid while massively funding ICE and giving handouts to billionaires.
Background
The Big Ugly Bill narrowly passed the Senate with Vance breaking the tie. Although some atrocious provisions were removed, the bill still cuts Medicaid and drastically increases funding for ICE. Passage of this bill will close rural hospitals and deprive the poor of services, while its transfer of wealth to the rich poses serious dangers to our economy across the board. This is a dangerous moment - but we still need to fight.
The bill now faces consideration in the House. It can still be defeated, and we need to urge our Representatives to do everything possible to stop it. We also need to continue phonebanking to red states to get voters there to call their representatives to stop the bill.
The Big Ugly Bill is highly unpopular, and most voters as well as politicians agree that it is a terrible policy. It is taking all of Trump’s political capital and authoritarian power to get it passed. We need to do everything possible to defeat it.
This Week's US Congressional Call Scripts:
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!
Demand your Members of Congress continue to work to stop the war on Iran
Unfortunately, KOSA is back with revised language and deceptively incorporated into the Kids Internet and Digital Safety (KIDS) Act. Tell Your Representatives: Vote NO on KIDS!
President Donald Trump has launched unauthorized military strikes on Iran, dragging the United States into yet another war without approval from Congress. The Constitution is clear: Congress, NOT the president, holds the power to declare war and to approve or disapprove sustained military engagement. Urge your Members of Congress to use every let option available to them to oppose this war..
Urge your electeds to immediately support the resolution to remove US from hostilities in Iran and curtail presidential war powers.
Keep up the demand: Democrats must not give one additional dime for ICE/CBP!
Demand Democrats give not one additional dime for ICE/CBP.
Oppose any funding for DHS. Not one penny more!
Tell your representative to NOT vote for any DHS bill or legislative process that fails to include significant and meaningful measures to rein in ICE and CBP's unchecked violence, impunity, and denial of basic human rights!
