Text SIGN PNNXQF to 50409 — The American people deserve the truth about Jeffrey Epstein’s crimes and the powerful network that enabled him. Every page withheld, every name redacted, is another reminder that the system protects the elite while abandoning the victims. That is intolerable. This is not about party labels. It is about justice. Epstein’s reach extended across political lines, into the highest levels of business, politics, and culture. Protecting those names is not protecting a party—it is protecting corruption. When redactions remain, the victims are told once again that the powerful are untouchable, while ordinary people must live with the scars. Americans are tired of seeing one set of rules for the wealthy and well-connected, and another set for everyone else. You have heard it said that Washington is a swamp—here is your chance to prove you mean to drain it. If members of Congress cannot stand up to the ruling class that preyed on children, then who will? No cause is more urgent than protecting children and holding accountable those who exploit them. Epstein’s victims were failed by every institution that should have protected them. Do not fail them again. Release the full, un-redacted files so the truth can finally be told, no matter who it implicates. Transparency is not a threat to our Republic—it is its strength. Secrecy only deepens distrust. To heal this wound, Congress must prove that no one is above the law and that justice does not stop at the gates of power. History will remember who stood with the survivors, and who chose to cover for the corrupt and connected. Stand with the victims. Release the Epstein files.

Text SIGN PQIZPQ to 50409 — Mobilizing the National Guard to combat protests against immigration raids is an unacceptable escalation of force against those exercising their constitutional right to protest. The National Guard exists to protect the American people, not suppress dissent or serve as enforcers for controversial immigration policies. California is a sanctuary state, and using our National Guard for federal immigration enforcement violates our state values and threatens community safety. These protests arise from legitimate concerns over the human impact of raids that tear families apart. Deploying military forces risks inflaming tensions and undermining community trust in law enforcement—the very trust that California has worked to build through our sanctuary policies. We urge you to publicly oppose this deployment and use all legal tools to prevent it. California must stand firm in protecting our values and our residents, ensuring that our state resources are not used to militarize responses to peaceful protest or to advance federal immigration enforcement that contradicts our state's commitment to protecting our communities.

Text SIGN PMSSPN to 50409 — Trump's proposal to eliminate funding for the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline's LGBTQ+ Youth Specialized Services is an unconscionable attack on vulnerable young people. This vital program has provided over 1.2 million LGBTQ+ youth with life-saving crisis services since its launch in 2022. Stripping away these resources will undoubtedly lead to more tragedies in a community where LGBTQ+ young people are over four times more likely to attempt suicide than their peers, with an estimated 1.8 million seriously considering suicide each year. The cold, hard facts are that suicide remains the second leading cause of death for ages 10-14 and third for ages 15-24. Eliminating specialized LGBTQ+ services from the 988 lifeline, which has received over 14.5 million calls, texts and chats since July 2022, will cost lives. Countless LGBTQ+ youth have been saved by having access to culturally competent counselors equipped to respond to their specific needs and experiences. While the administration cites budgetary reasons, what cost can we put on young lives lost to suicide and crisis? Prioritizing austerity over the wellbeing of our most vulnerable citizens is morally bankrupt. I implore you to act swiftly to maintain full funding for these essential LGBTQ+ youth services and prevent a potential public health crisis. The lives of young people across America depend on your moral leadership on this issue.

Text SIGN PADSZD to 50409 — Please do everything in your power to secure the release from ICE custody of U.S. permanent resident and student activist Mahmoud Khalil. Mahmoud is a student activist for Palestinian rights at Columbia University, and was abducted from his New York apartment on March 8 by DHS agents in retaliation for his political speech on Palestinian rights. Khalil is currently being held in ICE custody and has reportedly already been moved out of New York State. His wife, a U.S. citizen, is eight months pregnant. The Trump administration is making moves from a well-worn fascist playbook and we need our members of Congress to start fighting back. They are trying to remove a legal permanent resident for his political speech in support of human rights and justice. Everyone in Congress needs to immediately and publicly condemn this action, call for Mahmoud's release, and do everything in their power to protect student activists and immigrants from the reach of the Trump administration. This is an outrage and Americans won’t stand for it. Thanks.
