Our students can’t afford education cuts.

Anti-education politicians are pushing cuts to public school funding which will hurt studentsβ€”especially for students with disabilities and from low-income families.

Join educators, parents, and allies to help protect our public schools.

My name is __.

My zip code is __.

I am calling as your constituent to express alarm at the Abrego Garcia case. Trump is openly defying the Supreme Court by not bringing Garcia back. If you allow Trump to do this, then he is unquestionably a dictator, and your job as my member of Congress is to remove him at once.

(For Reps:) I ask that you immediately introduce Articles of Impeachment in the US House, and block all other business until they are introduced.

(For Senators:) I ask that you block all business in the Senate until Articles of Impeachment are introduced in the US House, and when they pass the House I expect you to vote to impeach.

Thank you.

Are you listening, @schumer.senate.gov?

She's talking about you.

And that crowd in Tempe, AZ agrees with what she's saying.

For the good of the country and democracy, step down as Senate Minority Leader.

It's clear you don't have the fight in you, and we need a leader who knows how to fight.

Definitely a not that big of a problem, but it's definitely messing with me. Switching to a different size keyboard and the muscle memory was so ingrained so you mistype. It's not that big of deal, but it's messing with me.

I will admit to finding the β€œall problems are caused by evil and we could fix every problem without any trade-offs” worldview pretty draining and immature.

If your representative is dodging in-person town halls, call them out! Tag them and demand they face their constituents.

I’m somehow on a Heritage Foundation mailing list (πŸ˜‚) and they sent a survey to see what we think of DOGE.

Who wants to offer some m-fing feedback?!?

Please share with a friend or a thousand :)

Department of Education FormLock

The Department of Ed has a form to snitch on DEI policies in schools.

I’d be a shame if we broke it with thousands of responses… enddei.ed.gov

NOAA is an absolute mess, and it’ll be worse tomorrow. Please help us. There have already been over 1,000 terminations. It’s not just layoffsβ€”Elon Musk and his staffers are trying to completely dismantle us. Today, there were tons of firings, and more are coming tomorrow.

I had a negative interaction with someone who doesn’t work at my school yesterday and this is just a brief PSA for anyone visiting a school.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

Also I want to take a moment to remind everyone (who isn’t an elected official) to take time to recharge your batteries. You don’t have to attend every city council meeting or protest. Find what centers you, then get back in the fight. This is a marathon, not a sprint.
