Quick to-do action items:
Indivisible:
- Indivisible: Call your Senator & Representative to vote NO on H.R. 22 and S. 128, the “Silencing Americans Act”, more info HERE.
- Make a lot of noise this week during recess. Every Member of Congress is home right now in their states and districts, and they need to hear how pissed their constituents are at Trump and Musk’s lawless attacks on programs -- like public education -- that we all depend on. Find an event coming up in your area and force them to publicly choose who they stand with: Trump and Musk, or the students, teachers, and families they're supposed to represent.
- Send an email right now and demand your Members of Congress oppose any legislation that helps Trump weaken or abolish the Department of Education. Republicans need the most pressure right now, but it’s also important for Democrats in Congress to know their constituents want them to fight.
- If you have a Republican senator or representative, send them a message now and let them know that we will hold them accountable for supporting Trump's assault on our public schools.
- If you have a Democratic senator or representative, click here to send your message and demand that they fight back.
Call your Members of Congress right now and make sure they got your message. We need to light up the phone lines and ensure they can't ignore the public outcry to protect our schools.
If you have a Republican senator, click here to be connected automatically to their office and ask them who they're standing with: Trump or students.
Do you have a Republican representative? Call them and demand they pick a side.
Got a Democratic senator? They need to hear from you as well -- call them and urge them to take immediate action against Trump's education cuts. How about a Democratic representative? Make your call and ask them to use every tool at their disposal to fight back.
