Dear MoveOn member,

You've probably already seen some of the disgusting actions from President
Donald Trump and unelected billionaire Elon Musk as they bulldoze over our
rights and gut our public services. 

Now, as Congress heads home for recess, we have to continue our pressure
against this MAGA takeover. It's devastating to see how the Trump
administration, with the help of Elon Musk's so-called Department of
Government Efficiency, has been giddy for weeks at just the thought of
gutting care for millions of people—whether it's Social Security or
Medicaid, food assistance for children, or funding for veterans.^1

And we've had enough. 

Normally, we'd confront these members of Congress at town halls. But
instead, Republicans are avoiding public town halls where constituents
like us can share our frustrations, concerns, and demands. This is not
business as usual, and we are still in a state of crisis and chaos because
of the Trump administration's actions.

This week, while Congress is on recess, and representatives are back in
their districts, we'll be ready for them.

Here are just a few things you can to do to take action this week: 

 1. [ tel:8776500039 ]Call your member of Congress: We need as many people as possible
to call House Republicans and put the pressure on. Call
[ tel:8776500039 ]877-650-0039 to tell your representative about how real people
are impacted by cuts to their health care, or anything else that's
on your mind.
 2. [ [link removed] ]Sign the petition: Demand your representative hold a town hall by
signing the petition (or create your own!)
 3. Do an office visit: Drop by your Republican MOC's office to deliver
a letter or your copy of the petition.
 4. [ [link removed] ]Submit a letter: Share a testimonial to MoveOn about how you or
the people you love are being impacted.
 5. [ [link removed] ]Print out a sign: Show your solidarity by printing out a sign—or
making your own—and putting it in your window.

And with any of these actions, you can invite friends to take these steps
with you. It's direct, effective action you can take from anywhere in the
country. There are also protests, office visits, rallies, and town halls
throughout the week. [ [link removed] ]While they won't be in every community, you can
check out if an event organized by MoveOn or one of our partners is in
your area.

Our pressure is working, and Republicans are running scared—so we’re
turning up the pressure. All of us need to come together, make our voices
heard, and get the job done. 

Thanks for all you do.

–Nakia, Allison, Emily, David, and the rest of the team

P.S. To kickoff our actions and mobilizations this week, we're hosting our
