Note for our new folks (hi!): When we start an action with “tell your Democratic representative to do XYZ,” we’re suggesting that action specifically to people who have a Democratic representative. So number one below is just for folks with Dem representatives, number two is for those of you with Republican representatives, and number three works for everyone! Not sure who represents you? Look it up here. 

1. Tell your Democratic representative to use their leverage to stop the Trump/Musk coup: Republicans need to pass a spending bill by March 14, but their internal divisions and minuscule House majority mean it’ll be pretty much impossible for them to do it without Democratic votes. And that gives Dems real power to put an end to the lawless dismantling of our government by Trump and DOGE. Join us in urging House Dems to use their leverage in the spending fight to impose restraints on Musk, and block any bill that slashes funding for vital programs. 
2. Tell your Republican representative to oppose a budget that guts the social safety net to pay for tax breaks for billionaires. You’ve seen the town halls in the news. Republicans are getting spooked by constituent anger over their complicity in the Trump/Musk coup and know the anger will be turned up to 11 if they back a spending bill that slashes Medicaid, public education, and other popular programs. If we keep the pressure on, we can splinter the Republican coalition and block the worst cuts from making their way into the final budget bill. 
3. Help block Republicans from disenfranchising millions of voters with their ‘SAVE ACT.’ As early as next week, the House could vote on H.R. 22 (the SAVE Act) — one of the biggest threats to voting rights we’ve seen in a generation. The bill requires voters to show proof of citizenship documents that match their current legal name — something tens of millions of Americans simply don’t have. It’d cause massive challenges for married women and trans and nonbinary people who’ve changed their names, and disproportionately impact people of color. We’ve got a lot more info (including key Members of Congress needed to stop the bill) here. But if you’re ready to take action now, you can use our tools to callor email your representative. 
4. Take the fight to Elon: Plan or attend a Tesla Townhall. Even though the House recess is over, we know that hunger for in-person actions isn’t slowing down. Until Congress is back in district (mid-March) Tesla dealerships are a great location for big, attention-grabbing events protesting the Trump-Musk coup. We’ve already seen events all over the country and more are being planned every day.

P.S. — With social media companies bending the knee to Trump, Project 2025 purging the government of dissenters, and corporate media companies caving in the face of speech-chilling lawsuits, it’s never been more important to invest in organizations you believe in that are willing to speak out and defy autocracy.
