Call your 2 U.S. Senators this week:
- If your Senators are Democrats, urge them to:
- Block all Trump nominees. There's no excuse for Senate Democrats to confirm any of Trump's nominees while Trump's power grab continues. These nominees have repeatedly stated their loyalty to Trump and his agenda, and not to the American people.
- Deny Republicans the ability to enact Trump initiatives by delaying, obstructing and blocking their agenda -- demand quorum calls and block unanimous consent, for example.
- Call your U.S. Representative this week and tell them to vote against the SAVE ACT, a dangerous anti-voter law that would disenfranchise millions of citizens.
