Text SIGN PMVLOV to 50409 — After witnessing today’s disgraceful events in the Oval Office, I am left with a profound sense of sorrow and outrage. I have never felt more ashamed of the individuals occupying the highest offices in our nation. What transpired was not leadership—it was a shameful display of arrogance, ignorance, and cruelty. President Zelenskyy, a leader who has courageously defended democracy in the face of Russia’s brutal war, was mocked and belittled by Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. Their taunting—asking if he “even owns a suit”—was not just a childish insult; it was a calculated act of disrespect. What followed was even more appalling: a shouting match filled with falsehoods and an egregious demand for tribute to Trump, an extortion attempt masquerading as diplomacy. Under this administration, the United States has abandoned its allies, shredded decades of global leadership, and betrayed those who depend on our support. Today, our country shamefully aligned itself with Putin’s regime, voting alongside Russia, North Korea, and Belarus at the United Nations—an appalling abdication of moral responsibility. This is not just a policy failure; it is a collapse of American values. It is the transformation of our nation into a pawn of Russian influence, sacrificing our sovereignty, our principles, and our global standing at the altar of Trump’s corruption and cowardice. This cannot stand. I urge you and your colleagues—on both sides of the aisle—to issue a forceful, bipartisan condemnation of Trump and Vance’s despicable actions. Silence is complicity. I specifically call on the entire Congress to take a stand. Stand for America. Stand for democracy. Stand for the free world. The choice is clear: Will you defend the United States, or will you enable Trump’s disgraceful subservience to Putin? History is watching. So are the American people. I implore you to act.

Text SIGN PORUHP to 50409 — Clear Vote NO on the Save Act. It will disenfranchise millions. Read what the non- partisan Voter Participation Center writes: "Anti-voting rights politicians introduced the SAVE Act into Congress. The SAVE Act would require every voter to provide proof of citizenship - a passport or birth certificate. A Real ID, Drivers License, Tribal Identification, and Military ID all are insufficient. Experts estimate this law could disenfranchise the 140 million Americans without a passport. Additionally, 69 million Americans’ birth certificates don't match their legal name since they took their spouse’s name after marriage." It will also exclude overseas Americans, turning them into taxpayers without representation. This is voter suppression. Please consider that if you vote for this, you will be disenfranchising thousands of your constituents. Please honor John Lewis's birthday (February 21st) by condemning this nasty bill. You should be working to protect our access to the ballot box and make it easier not harder for Americans to vote. You well know that actual voter fraud is vanishingly rare but voter suppression is a constant menace. Remember your oath to the constitution. Please reply in writing to assure me that you take your duty to the constitution seriously and that you will serve your constituents by protecting our access to the ballot.
