Thank your Senators for refusing to fund ICE or pass the SAVE Act
Call BOTH of your Senators.
Call Script
My name is __________. I am a constituent, and my zip code is _______. I am a member of Indivisible SF.
Thank you for funding Coast Guard, and the TSA on March 27 and refusing to fund ICE and CBP without significant reform. We also thank you for filibustering against the SAVE act.
We ask you to continue to stand strong against the authoritarian power grab of the Trump regime and:
Refuse to allocate additional funds for ICE and CBP
Continue to expose the lawlessness and cruelty of Trump’s immigration enforcement operations
Refuse to allocate one more dollar for the illegal war with Iran
Continue to filibuster and prevent the SAVE act from passage in the Senate
Background
On March 27, Senator Schiff and Senator Padilla joined other Senate Democrats in voting to fund FEMA, the Coast Guard, and the TSA, while still excluding funding for ICE and CBP. Although the funding bill failed in the House, our Senators did their part in continuing to provide no money for Trump’s personal henchmen.
Our Senators also succeeded in filibustering the SAVE Act.
These are excellent examples of our Senators doing the right thing based on our asks. Thank you for calling them, and thank THEM for listening to you.
Unfortunately, the Republicans in the House of Representatives are now threatening to use the Reconciliation maneuver to ram through their undemocratic and unjust agenda. This will lead to multiple funding fights ahead.
Giving kudos to our Senators will encourage them to continue fighting for us.
This Week's US Congressional Call Scripts:
The Office of Management and Budget is now proposing a wide-ranging rule that would subject all federal grant-making to political loyalty criteria, superseding any scientific advice. Call or write your elected representatives to raise their awareness of your concerns.
Tell your representatives to reject the violence happening at Delaney Hall (NJ) and detention centers around the country, including here in California (Adelanto).
Demand your Congressmember hold hearings on the unlawful reorganization of the US Forest Service.
Tell your representatives that they must refuse to cooperate in any way with the MAGA regime. And then come join us or one of the other organizations in the resistance movement!
Tell your representatives: DO NOT RE-AUTHORIZE FISA702 WITHOUT AMENDMENTS
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
