U.S. Capital switchboard appeared to be malfunctioning earlier today--maybe overloaded? It would ignore voice prompts and just give you Brandenburg concerto. I did get thru by interrupting the recorded greeting with rep's name. KEEP CALLING: 202-224-3121

Preaching to choir here on Bluesky, perhaps, but if y'all have more diverse venues in which to share this, please pass it on asap. Esp to friends with GOP Senators they might call. BTW, US Capital switchboard: 202-224-3121
The reconciliation legislation, which Trump calls his "big, beautiful bill," is massive.
For the wealthiest 10% of Americans, the bill would make them even richer. But it will also inflict pain on millions of Americans, increase the deficit, and finance an unprecedented crackdown on immigrants.

Great idea. Thanks for the update. They don't seem to listen to "no" or even "thou shalt not." What's the consequence for them? Please tell us how we the people, along with you, can generate a consequence now, not at midterms. Thank you.
