Subject: MAJOR immigration vote in the Senate this week, Munsup
After months of broken promises to DREAMers, the Senate is finally expected to begin debate on an immigration bill. Over 80 percent of Americans support an immigration law with a clear path to citizenship for DREAMers, and movement toward that goal is long overdue.
Sign now: Urge your senators to support the DREAM Act to protect young undocumented people today>>
Even if you’ve already signed on with your support of the DREAM Act, please add your name again. A message will be emailed to your senators letting them know you want them to PASS the DREAM Act without delay… and they can’t hear from their constituents enough!
It’s very important that the bill that passes does not pander to Trump and White House aide Stephen Miller’s white supremacist demands. Senators must support a bill that protects DREAMers and only includes common-sense border protection measures.
Every day that this goes unaddressed 122 more DACA recipients lose their protected status, and that status will fully expire on March 5. This is one of the most important issues on the table right now, and senators need to do the right thing.

Subject: Far more than a ‘cover-up’
The SCROTUS, and his Administration (which has been a shambles since Day One), are doomed, and what I love about this article is that it lays out the ‘why and the wherefore’ in a format so clear and concise that even the most fact-blind of his fawning minions should be able to understand it. It’s based on FACTS, all of which are now a matter of public record, and not mere surmise and conjecture.

Subject: Cracking down on credit reporting companies like Equifax
I just signed this petition I just stood with Sen. Elizabeth Warren to tell Congress to pass legislation cracking down on credit reporting companies like Equifax, and I hope you will, too.

Subject: Will you take the next step to stop Trump’s tank parade?
Wow. You and 250,000 more activists signed the petition urging Washington, D.C.’s government to block Trump’s authoritarian war parade. And our immediate outcry worked: We got the Pentagon to backpedal on holding the parade in D.C. [1]
But we can’t stop there — not while Trump’s still planning an authoritarian show of force in our streets at the expense of our democracy and our tax dollars. If we can turn our incredible surge of momentum into hard and fast legislation to refuse federal funds, then we can keep Trump’s authoritarian parade off our nation’s streets for good.
Take the next step and urge Congress to permanently defund Trump’s war parade >>
We got Washington, D.C.’s Mayor and City Council on the record against Trump’s parade, plus dozens of members of Congress. [2] But the second our backs are turned, the Pentagon is going to try to cram Trump’s tanks down the streets of another American city. So we’ve got to stay two steps ahead of them.
Our nationwide pressure got two bills introduced in Congress to cut off funding for Trump’s massively wasteful and undemocratic war parade. [3] Now, we need to push hard to get these bills through Congress before Trump’s next horrible idea steals the spotlight… and the Pentagon quietly grabs taxpayer money to put Trump’s tanks on American streets.
Tell Congress: Block funding for Trump’s tank parade.

JUST RELEASED: TRUMP BUDGET CUTS $1.7 TRILLION FROM SOCIAL SAFETY NET, INCLUDING MEDICARE
5OO,OOO SIGNATURES NEEDED:
Fight back against Trump and Republicans’ Medicare-GUTTING budget >>
Donald Trump’s newly-released budget slashes TRILLIONS from our social safety net — but reserves BILLIONS for his disgusting wall.
We will NOT let Republicans steal Americans’ Medicare and Social Security to fund their bigotry and hate.
| Sign Your Name >> |
We’re so furious, we can barely write this email.
We just finished reading Trump’s new budget, and it’s the most heartless document we’ve ever seen.
In short, it’s a $1.7 TRILLION attack on Americans’ social safety net:
– Medicare? GUTTED
– Medicaid? DECIMATED
– Social Security? SLASHED
– Nutrition assistance? EVISCERATED
But can you guess what it prioritizes BILLIONS in funding for?
You guessed it — the Wall. (The same wall Trump promised Mexico would pay for)
Trump and his Republicans are STEALING from hardworking Americans and seniors to fund their bigotry and hate.
We. Won’t. Stand. For. It.
We need to rise up and fight back like never before. Will you be one of the 5OO,OOO Democratic signatures we need to protect our social safety net?
ADD YOUR NAME: We won’t let Trump and his Republicans
ROB us of our social safety net! >>
