Call at least one Congressional Republican’s office every weekday and urge them not to confirm Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard or Cash Patel…OR, ask how they can justify Trump’s J6 pardons. (“Is someone missing a spine?”) Flood the phone lines everyday. You’ll feel better for having made the effort. ✊🏼

We can hope some of this funding reaches schools here in Lancaster County. After-school care allows many parents to maintain employment. It should be accessible to all families.
