Veterans Deserve Complete and Full Access to Reproductive Health Care
Your Action Status: NOT YET SIGNED -> [ [link removed] ]Sign Now
Right now we have a chance to safeguard reproductive rights and
services–including abortion–for our veterans but we need your help! We’re
encouraging the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) to expand their current
proposed rule because it states that abortion care can only be sought by
those in an circumstance in which a person was raped, became pregnant as a
result of incest, or could potentially die due to pregnancy or giving
birth. Although we commend the VA for taking a bold first step in the
right direction to ensure that veterans and their dependents have access
to the essential reproductive healthcare they need, they must take their
efforts further by expanding the ruling to include abortion care for all
veterans regardless of the circumstance.
[ [link removed] ]Sign Our Letter: Urge the VA to drop the severe restrictions around the
narrow circumstance in which abortion care can be provided.

How does the Child Tax Credit help your family?
Your Action Status: NOT YET SUBMITTED ->
[ [link removed] ]Submit Now
The expansion of the Child Tax Credit has cut child poverty in half and
boosted millions of families. We have an important opportunity the make
sure those expansions continue by the end of the year but we will need
your help calling on our elected leaders to do so. One major way you can
help is let us know how your family uses the Child Tax Credit.
***How have you and your family been helped by the Child Tax Credit in the
past and how would it impact you if Congress were to expand the CTC at the
end of the year?***
The expanded Child Tax Credit is a big deal but we need your help to
convince our elected leaders to make the expansion of the Child Tax Credit
continue.

[ [link removed] ]DACA-2022
SIGN ON! Congress must act before the end of 2022 to protect DACA recipients!
Your Action Status: NOT YET SIGNED ->
[ [link removed] ]Sign Now
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals just decided to allow people in the
Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program to renew their
status – for now – but is sending a case challenging the legality of the
DACA program back to the lower court to consider the new Biden
administration regulation fortifying the program. The Fifth Circuit
decision is a reprieve, a warning, and an urgent call to action for
Congress to act for the lives of more than 800,000 DACA recipients who
have built their lives here, who have started their families, who have
served their communities throughout the pandemic. Congress must take
immediate action to create permanent protections for the hundreds of
thousands of people who were brought to this country as children, making
it the only place they have ever called home.
[ [link removed] ]Only Congress can protect DACA recipients now and provide permanent
protections for them by passing legislation before the end of the year!
Tell your members of Congress they must protect immigrant youth!

Quick signature for LGBTQ+ equality!
Your Action Status: NOT YET SIGNED ->
[ [link removed] ]Sign Now
Passage of the Equality Act is a crucial step to protect LGBTQ+ people
from discrimination and in fulfilling our nation’s commitment to the civil
and human rights of all people. Right now, there is a patchwork of
different state laws with varying degrees of protection against
discrimination, and in some states they are even going backwards and
making it easier to discriminate against LGBTQ+ people. Your civil rights
should not depend on your zip code or on who you are.

[ [link removed] ]end_title42_welcome_refugees
It’s time to end Title 42, not expand it!
Your Action Status: NOT YET SIGNED ->
[ [link removed] ]Sign Now
Title 42 denies asylum-seekers their right to seek safety in the United
States. The Trump-era policy falsely cited vulnerable immigrant children
and their parents as COVID-19 public health threats despite the fact that
COVID was spreading endemically within the U.S.
Now, President Biden has expanded the policy to include Venezuelan
nationals arriving at our border seeking asylum. We need President Biden
to end the policy, not expand it!
[ [link removed] ]Tell President Biden to protect our asylum process and end Title 42
once and for all!
