Please contact the Senator's office and insist that she co-sponsor S. 631, which admits D.C. into the Union as the 51st state, with all the Congressional representation afforded to each state. Every citizen deserves to have a voice and be counted!

In our “checks and balances” government, Congress holds the power of the purse—the authority to direct how the government spends money, and thereby what the government does and how. Congress can use this to check immigration enforcement authorities by cutting off the flow of money to programs that mistreat people coming to the United States.

For decades the ESA protected the bald eagle and grizzly bears from extinction, now Republicans want to allow oil drilling, coal mining, and logging on their last remaining habitats, but gutting the ESA. Tell your MoC’s to use the Congressional Review Act to stop this rule change!

The Trump administration intends to deport people if they use government services via their Public Charge rule change. Tell your MoC’s to use the Congressional Review Act to stop this rule change!

In our “checks and balances” government, Congress holds the power of the purse—the authority to direct how the government spends money, and thereby what the government does and how. Trump administration programs and schemes can be blocked by denying them funds, and some of their destructive regulation and rule changes can be countered by mandating how funds have to be used.

Many young people leaving foster care after they reach adulthood become homeless soon after losing the child welfare system’s support, and, among those who do, more than half experience multiple episodes of homelessness. HR 4300 — the Fostering Stable Housing Opportunities Act — would help address this tragic policy failure by making Housing Choice Vouchers available to more at-risk foster youth, to help them rent housing at an affordable cost during these vulnerable transition years. Ask that Speaker Pelosi support and Congresswoman Speier co-sponsor this important bipartisan bill.

The Trump Department of Labor announced plans to make sweeping revisions to the H-2A agricultural guest worker program to the detriment of farm workers. The proposed H-2A changes would weaken key protections for farm workers, limiting their ability to obtain employment with H-2A employers and exposing H-2A workers to greater vulnerability and costs. You can give public comment in opposition to the changes!

Trump wants to take away the food assistance of millions of Americans. Now’s the time to speak up!

ICE agents can command any person in public, or in any place they're let into, to show their “papers, please”—and if they don't prove to the agents' satisfaction that they're a citizen or lawfully present, ICE—in a practice called “expedited removal”—can deport them immediately, without so much as an immigration court hearing.

The Trump administration wants to expand this power nationwide.

Governor Newsom is threatening to veto environmental bill SB1. Demand that he signs it!

SB 155 and AB 56 would cede local control of Community Choice energy programs to the CPUC. Adding bureaucracy to local control is meant to weaken CCAs ability to compete with PG&E. Call Senator Wiener and Asm. Ting and ask them to vote NO!
