Change Starts Now
@changestartsnow.bsky.social
Simple actions you can take to effect societal change now. Silence is assent. Standing by means accepting the status quo. Act now for progress and a better future. Every small action adds to the larger movement, and together, we create meaningful change.
Please use your position to speak out and push for their reinstatement. We need strong oversight to protect our tax dollars. Thank you.

I’m calling about your role in the new bipartisan Inspector General Caucus.

I appreciate your efforts to prevent fraud and waste of taxpayer money. But I’m very concerned that the Administration just fired 17 Inspector Generals. This weakens oversight and goes against the law.

Vote NO on the upcoming confirmations of Russell Vought, Kash Patel, Tulsi Gabbard, and RFK Jr., and to reject all future nominees who will enable the dismantling of our government and democracy.

We need you to be vocal, to disrupt, to delay, and to say no.

Your yes vote on Marco Rubio was disappointing—his immediate move to cut off nearly all foreign aid proves that even so-called “normal” nominees will advance Trump’s dangerous agenda.

This puts millions of Americans at risk. I urge you to take immediate action to stop this security breach and hold those responsible accountable.
What are you doing to protect our private financial information?

Sample Script for Senators & Representatives:

I receive [Social Security, Medicare payments, tax refunds, etc.] from the federal government, and I’m alarmed by reports that Elon Musk’s DOGE team was given access to the U.S. Treasury’s payment system without security clearance.

These people do not have security clearance and now have access to the financial data of millions of Americans. This is a serious security breach.
As Minnesota’s Attorney General, can you take action to protect our private data? Can you work with other state AGs to challenge this in court?

Sample Script for State Attorney General:

I receive [Social Security, Medicare payments, tax refunds, etc.] from the federal government, and I’m deeply concerned about reports that Elon Musk’s DOGE team was given access to the U.S. Treasury’s payment system.

Calls Make the Biggest Impact!
📞 Calling carries more weight than emails. Offices track phone calls, and they get immediate attention. But if you can’t call, sending an email is still better than doing nothing. Email all three representatives here, democracy.io#!/

What’s at risk?
Your banking information if you get direct deposits
Your Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid payments
Your tax refunds and government benefits
Your privacy and financial security

What can we do?
This is a huge security breach that puts millions of Americans at risk.

How did this happen?
Donald Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent have given Elon Musk, who is not an elected official, access to highly sensitive government systems.The payment system he and his team got into requires a top-level security clearance, which they do NOT have.

If you or your business receive money from the U.S. government, your personal and financial information is at risk. This affects millions of Americans, exposing banking details, Social Security numbers, and other private data.
