Dear Friend,
The effective co-presidents Donald Trump and Elon Musk, and their unelected billionaire buddies are doing their best to dismantle our government from the inside. They're pushing out thousands of government workers and trying to freeze all funding, including programs that have created hundreds of thousands of clean energy jobs... including the office that helped Musk turn Tesla into the company it is today.
From day one of their co-presidency, Musk and Trump have unlawfully attacked popular and essential programs that we all depend on to keep our families safe and healthy, help pay our bills and heat our homes in the winter, protect our drinking water, and support the communities still reeling from recent climate disasters.
Despite a federal judge ordering Musk and Trump to stop illegally withholding funds passed by Congress, they are now ignoring the court order too. This money is crucial for families, communities, manufacturers, small businesses, and more. Trump's actions are forcing thousands of projects across the country to grind to a halt. Dozens of federal agencies, including the Department of Energy and EPA, are furloughing staff and stopping their critical work, leaving workers and communities in limbo.
Last week, huge public outcry forced Trump to roll back some of the most egregious funding cuts to seniors, early childhood development programs, and veterans. That means our pressure can make a difference. And it also means that we can't let up.
If you have just two minutes, please take a moment to call your federal representative right now. We know that it can be intimidating to make a call, but it is a quick action that can make a huge difference! Here's the number to call and a sample script you can use: |
