Your lawmakers have another week of voting ahead of them. Tell them how they should vote and make your voice heard!

1. Should the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Be Permanently Reauthorized?

This bill — the Never Forget the Heroes: James Zadroga, Ray Pfeifer, and Luis Alvarez Permanent Authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act — would permanently authorize the Victim Compensation Fund (VCF) by providing funding for claims through FY2090. Under current law, the VCF is authorized through FY2020, but it is experiencing a shortfall and benefit cut due to an influx of claims.  Vote now →  

2. Should There Be Minimum Hygiene, Nutrition & Shelter Standards for Homeland Security Detention Facilities?

This bill — the Humanitarian Standards for Individuals in Customs and Border Protection Custody Act — would require all individuals in Customs and Border Protection (CBP) custody to receive an initial medical screening and set certain minimum standards of hygiene, nutrition, and shelter that CBP must meet.  Vote now →  

3. Should the House Condemn the BDS Movement Targeting Israel as Counterproductive to the Peace Process?

This resolution would express the House of Representatives’ opposition to the Global Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) Movement targeting Israel, including efforts to target American companies engaged in legal commerce, and all efforts to delegitimize Israel. It would affirm that the BDS Movement undermines the possibility for a negotiated solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by demanding concessions from only one party and encouraging Palestinians to reject negotiations in favor of international pressure. Additionally, it’d reaffirm the House’s strong support for a negotiated solution resulting in two states — a democratic Jewish State of Israel and a viable, democratic Palestinian state — living side-by-side in peace, security, and mutual recognition.  Vote now →
