Because Congressional Republicans refuse to act, we can all just keep pointing these infractions to the rest of the power structure (see OperationSunshine.info) and to continue to make fun of the corrupt incompetence demonstrated every day.

Folks need to speak up at every level of government. Local officials need to be called out for not speaking against these budget and policy changes that DIRECTLY affect their constituents.

@ezralevin.bsky.social The political pressure you speak about will come not from Democrats, but Republicans. Local Republican government officials hold regular meetings where citizens can speak directly to the power structure using state Sunshine laws.

I've engaged the recent protestors in discussion on bringing about change, especially in these dynamic times. The response is often that we need to vote out bad leaders, but what if the change is required sooner.
What do we do then?
