Remind them that Trump doesn't have to get re-elected, but they do. They need to keep their hands off our medicare, medicaid, and food assistance because we are NOT OK with them taking OUR money to give themselves tax breaks. Call them every day. Pick a time and take a minute to keep reminding them who they work for. Remind them that WE are the government, NOT them, and that they can be replaced if they abandon us.5calls.org Contacting U.S. SenatorsWould be a shame if nobody showed up to Donald's fascist birthday paradehttps://events.america250.org/events/250th-anniversary-of-the-us-army-grand-military-parade-and-celebrationFind Upcoming Demonstrations And Actions:50501 MovementJune 14th Nationwide Demonstrations - NoKings.orgIndivisible.orgShare your Good News or Good Trouble:dailybeanspod.com/goodFrom The Good NewsCooperative Innovative High Schools | NC DPIStudents with Disabilities Under the IDEA, Section 504, and the ADA | Congress.govBookshareNew Jersey Legislative Roster of Members | NJ Legislaturegcpetpals.orgMountain Pet RescueSoul Dog RescueNYC SaltReminder - you can see the pod pics if you become a Patron.
