Contact your politicians, regardless of their party. We must be consistent in our opposition to the archaic, hateful, misogynistic, dangerous laws being put in place by the current administration.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Like Mr. Rogers says, “look for the helpers”. Print and pass out red cards. All people in the United States, regardless of immigration status, have certain rights and protections under the U.S. Constitution. This card tells them their rights in their native language.
