MAKE YOUR CALLS!

As a retired personal finance teacher I understand the value of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

I called my congressional representatives and left voicemails to thank Kaine & Warner & I asked Subramanyam to stand up for the CFPB.

This action took less than 5 minutes ❣️

I just downloaded this app and used it to contact my 3 congressional representatives. It was so easy to use topics and scripts are part of the app.

Today's skeet: The official term for a post on Bluesky is "post". However, some users call them "skeets", which is a portmanteau of "sky" and "tweets".

I just contacted my senators and urged them to oppose Pete Hegseth's nomination to lead the Defense Department. Trump's pick would undermine our national security. app.sosha.ai/s/KxCtYCfQ
