Tell Trump: Stop Treating Hungry Americans Like Pawns

The Trump administration must immediately use the USDA’s emergency funds to keep SNAP running.

Every day you delay using these funds means more children going to bed hungry, more veterans skipping meals, and more seniors wondering how they’ll get through the week.

We demand you stop treating hungry Americans like pawns in your political games.

Tell Congress: No $500k Checks for Senators

No writing $500,000 checks to yourselves! Repeal Senate Republicans’ self-serving cash grab now.

Investigators shouldn’t have to worry about political retaliation or costing taxpayers huge sums of money just for doing their jobs. And elected officials should NOT be profiting off the people they serve.

Tell NBC: Keep Seth Meyers on the air!

A free, independent media is a First Amendment guarantee that’s essential to democracy – helping expose corruption, hold leaders accountable, and inform the public.

NBC and Comcast must hold firm, defend democracy and free speech, and keep Seth Meyers on the air. Don’t surrender to Trump.

Tell Congress: REJECT Trump’s Big Tech Giveaway

Congress must reject attempts to sneak a dangerous ban on all state-level regulation on artificial intelligence (AI) into the National Defense Authorization Act.

States have stepped up where Congress has failed. A vast majority of states – red, blue, and purple – have passed commonsense protections to make sure ordinary people aren’t left behind or deceived by AI.

Congress should be protecting us against the dangers AI poses – NOT giving Big Tech unchecked power.

Condemn Trump’s death threats against lawmakers

Trump has accused multiple Democratic lawmakers of “SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!” – and reshared a post that called for them to be hanged.

These threats on your own colleagues can’t go unanswered. We urge you to condemn Trump’s disgusting rhetoric and make it clear that violence has no place in our politics.

Tell media companies: Stand up for free speech!

Our media should be holding the powerful accountable – not bowing to them. We urge you to reject Trump’s blacklist and refuse to bend to political pressure.

Don’t be intimidated, defend free speech, and stand up for your journalists when they face attacks for doing their jobs.

Reject Trump’s mass surveillance proposal

With the World Cup and Olympics approaching, the United States should be welcoming visitors, not treating them as suspects.

We urge you to drop the proposed rule that would force tourists to hand over DNA, facial scans, fingerprints, and years of social media history just to enter the United States. We’ve already seen how this kind of data is misused through unaccountable surveillance systems.

Please drop this rule before it becomes permanent and does lasting damage to our democracy, privacy, and tourism economy.

A long way to go: Voters of color are still waiting for the promise of the VRA

Fifty-nine years ago on Tuesday, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Voting Rights Act into law, saying “it is not enough just to give men rights. They must be able to use those rights in their personal pursuit of happiness.”
