Want a tangible way to resist? Here's your homework.

Follow the instructions in this super guide from our amazing friends at @fedworkersunited.bsky.social to comment by May 23 on the proposed Schedule F rule, which would remove civil service protections for a huge swath of the federal workforce.
Public Comment Toolkit The Trump Administration issued a new policy that would make it easy to fire hundreds of thousands of federal employees and replace them with political loyalists. This would make it easier to weaken our national security and dismantle the medical and Social Security benefits, clean water and safety regulations that took America out of the 1800s. We can stop them. Use this guide to submit a comment by May 23 How: Trump’s Office of Personnel Management is required to solicit public comments before the policy takes effect. OPM must review the public comments and respond to significant comments 2. If OPM does not follow these steps, federal courts can stop the policy. Commenting is your opportunity to make your voice heard and fight against this dangerous policy before it harms millions of Americans. Comments helped fight previous policies and can do so again: For example, Health and Human Services proposed reducing certain Medicare reimbursements for health care providers. Commenters pointed out errors with the studies cited by HHS. A court struck down the HHS rule because of the issues pointed out by comments. 3. What the policy does Removes civil-service protections from a new category of federal employees called Schedule Policy/Career. P/C employees become at-will workers. They lose their right to challenge terminations or appeal reclassification to the Merit Systems Protection Board. Allows agencies to identify and recommend "policy-influencing" roles into Schedule P/C. Gives the President sole authority to reclassify federal employees as P/C and removes their ability to challenge reclassification. Why it matters. Makes mass firings between administrations more likely, which weakens government expertise and efficiency. Politicizing government functions weakens continuity and the delivery of public services. The policy will remove safeguards for those refusing to break the law in favor of partisan outcomes.

Four of us in Jefferson City, Missouri delivered our storybook to staff at Congressman Bob Onder’s office. Many thanks to #momsrising for compiling the stories!
Three constituents and one staffer pose with the storybook.” A page from the storybook tells the stories of four Medicaid recipients. “Two thirds of Medicaid recipients are employed. Most of the rest have a disability, are caring for family members, or are attending school.”

As a former Hill staffer, some advice: you need a good ASK. MoCs want constituents to feel heard but don't want to do anything new. Bad asks are vague, not time-bound, not verifiable. "Support human rights!" "Oppose Trump!" The Member will say they agree with you and do nothing. Here's a good ask:

Trump is about to return to power but one thing hasn’t changed: The MAGA agenda remains unpopular. We must use the inevitable backlash to Trump 2.0 to break up the fragile GOP coalition and rebuild ours.

In early 2020, the New York Times learned that ICE was conducting a surveillance op named “Operation Palladium”, targeting cities with “sanctuary” policies to “arrest as many undocumented immigrants as possible, and ‘flood the streets’” with agents.
