If you rely on fed services such as social security, Medicare/Medicaid, airline safety, clean air & water, disaster response, search & rescue, or enjoy things like national parks, you *really* need to contact all of your congressional reps.
These services are people dependent & in very real danger.

Mary W. Jackson, a Hampton native, became the first African American woman engineer at NASA in 1958. There, she supported space missions, including the first moon landing. Her barrier-breaking career was chronicled in the book and film “Hidden Figures,” and in 2021, the NASA HQ was named after her.

Among the more inhumane things Trump/Musk have done this week, DOGE cut off food, water, & fuel to the US embassy in South Sudan. They are living on what power the generator can provide. The country has no potable water & there's a cholera outbreak in the country.

DOGE is inflating its savings claims. DOGE counts fully paid contracts as “savings.”
Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service says it has saved $55 billion by cutting jobs, canceling contracts, and renegotiating leases. But a closer look suggests that number is misleading.

"Just since Donald Trump’s election, Musk’s personal net worth has grown by far more than the entire annual budget of U.S.A.I.D., which in any case accounts for less than 1 percent of the federal budget."
