Tell Congress: No One Is Above the Law

The Supreme Court’s dangerous presidential immunity ruling goes against accountability, the rule of law, and our Constitution.

Congress must pass Rep. Morelle’s constitutional amendment to permanently declare that no American is above the law – not even former presidents – and prohibit presidents from pardoning themselves.

Tell Congress: Wealthy donors shouldn’t control our Supreme Court

The Judicial Conference’s weakened disclosure rules are unacceptable and will make it easier for wealthy donors to secretly buy influence over the Supreme Court – at the expense of everyday Americans.

Congress must put a stop to this now by passing the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency Act and creating the strongest possible Code of Conduct for our highest court.

Fight back against Big Money’s influence: Overturn Citizens United

Corporations, special interest groups, and some of the wealthiest people in the country are spending billions of dollars to influence our elected leaders – essentially using a megaphone to try to drown out the voices of everyday Americans.

That’s why I’m calling on Congress to overturn the Supreme Court’s disastrous Citizens United decision – and also pass the Freedom to Vote Act and the DISCLOSE Act – to fight back against our country’s Big Money problem.

Tell Congress: Protect birthright citizenship

Trump’s executive order attempting to end birthright citizenship would endanger millions of people born in this country and permanently reshape what it means to be an American.

The 14th Amendment is clear – and legal experts say Trump would likely need to pass a constitutional amendment through Congress to overrule it.

Congress must step up and REFUSE to help Trump shred our Constitution. We urge you to protect birthright citizenship and our 14th Amendment today.

Tell Congress: STOP Trump’s Cuts to National Parks!

National parks don’t exist to pad the pockets of donors or make room for private developers. They belong to all of us — not just the wealthy few.​

Congress must REJECT efforts to cut funding for our national parks.

STOP Efforts to teach election lies in schools

The Oklahoma State Department of Education must stop its efforts to force teachers to spread Trump’s election lies.

We should be strengthening civics education – NOT peddling Trump’s election lies to the next generation of voters.

Common Cause

Tell Congress: Restore PBS and NPR Funding

Congress must restore funding for PBS and NPR – which Americans consistently rank as the most trustworthy networks for news and public affairs.

Attacks on PBS and NPR are attempts to silence independent media. We must protect free, fact-based journalism and ensure access to trusted programming for all Americans.

KIMMEL CANCELLED: Turn Off Disney

I pledge to turn off Disney and ABC until they reinstate Jimmy Kimmel’s show and stop bowing to Trump’s authoritarian threats.

As a Matter of Fact: The Harms Caused by Election Disinformation Report

Donald Trump’s Big Lie is working, and we have to respond. Just as we came together last year, rising up to vote safely and securely in record numbers during a global pandemic, we must now rise up to stop election disinformation efforts in future elections.

In December 2023, Common Cause gathered citizen redistricting commissioners from 14 commissions in 10 different states to participate in the first ever national conference of commissioners.
