I just called my reps with @5calls.org, you should too: 5calls.org
They give you the numbers and a sample script, or you can say it in your own words. This is a great tool.

Politicians may slash budgets and dismantle institutions, but they cannot erase the principle that built them: that caring for others is a moral obligation, not a partisan position.

Real power isn't staged in DC — it rises up everywhere else. Join me on No Kings Day to stand together against cruelty, corruption, and authoritarianism. app.sosha.ai/s/REaUtlPS

The fight against President Musk (and Kennedy Center chairman Trump) is just starting. We’re mobilizing to show the strength of our movement. Together, we have the power to stop MAGA’s takeover. app.sosha.ai/s/zAlEoQ3J

Where is Kamala Harris? Waltz is holding rallies. Other Dems are having town halls. I haven't seen or heard anything from her. We supported her in the 24 election. She should help the country now.

This all started with Trump signing hundreds of executive orders, none of which have the power of law. Sooner rather than later, they need to be debunked--pulled apart and presented to the American people for what they are. Our willingness to just accept them gives them power.

I have checked major media outlets, and they mention USAID briefly, but there is no urgency. They're mostly focused on tariffs. Musk invading our top-secret files with his unvetted team is A MAJOR PROBLEM.

@hartmannreport.com I recently discovered the Hartmann Report, and I am blown away by the depth of his analysis. Unfortunately, it reinforces the sense of doom that is hanging over me. I want to help change the trajectory, but I don't know what I can do. What is any other average citizen doing?
