Mitigate economic harm, uphold free trade over protectionism

US job cuts hit 275,240 in March 2025 the highest since the pandemic peak in 2020, surpassing the 2001 and 2008 recessions. Layoffs surge as federal cuts, led by DOGE, echo Covid era losses.

As an Alaskan Fishing Family, We Urge You to Stop These Reckless Tariffs
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the Trump administration’s newly announced tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China, and to urge you to act immediately to rein in this abuse of emergency powers under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). As a third-genera
Trumps tariffs will be disastrous. The US economy was humming along and in a growth period before Trump took over. Every country in the world had high inflation during the COVID pandemic because of supply chain issues while people were buying more products instead of using services. Our economy was
Say No to Bitcoin Buys
Do not support Trump draining the treasury of valuable assets to buy up scam bitcoin. This will be a massive transfer of taxpayer money directly into the pockets of billionaires.
Today was a shameful massacre across HHS where tens of thousands of workers found out they and their programs were gutted when they lost access to their building. It is disgusting and shameful that this is allowed to happen while Russel Vought and RFK Jr are cheering this on. Do we really want to be
There's a *real* Senator at the podium
As Cory Booker continues to hold the Senate floor, I have learned much in the last 15 hours about the impacts of the Trump / Musk administration's assault on America.

Trumps orders and threats of orders on law firms continues. His orders violate the firms’ and their lawyers’ rights to free speech and association as well as the rights to counsel guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment.

Bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia home - and ALL those whose rights have been violated
As you undoubtedly know, we learned today that a Maryland father in protected status *from* El Salvador was shipped by the Trump/Musk regime *to* El Salvador. Upon learning of this mistake, Trump indicated that they're simply nothing that can be done. Imagine an “administrative error” gets you sent

Protect Alaska’s Lifeline: Keep the USPS Public and Strong
I am writing to you today to urge your strong and unwavering support for the United States Postal Service (USPS), which is essential to the health, safety, and well-being of Alaskans. No state is more dependent on the USPS than Alaska. In our state, where the majority of communities are not connect
Why is being any job including staying a congressman more important ceding your principals to make sure you keep it? Why do you continue to cow to Trump even though he tramples on the very fabric of our country. You truly are on board with rigging the systems so the Democrats never rule again?! You
Your inaction endangers the President too
I'm curious to know whether you have considered that your inaction regarding the illegal dismantling of the government by the president and his de facto vice president Musk is contributing to a direct threat against them. As lives are being decimated, the economy broken, our global relationships des
Trump threatens military force against Greenland?
Can you explain, from your perspective, the advisability of the US attempting to acquire Greenland? The president has now said he would not exclude military force to do so. Why do we need it? He keeps saying that, but not explaining why. If we really need it for national security, then why are we de
Stand Up for Alaska Workers – Oppose the Attack on Collective Bargaining Rights

The plan by EPA administrator Lee Zeldin to guy the Office of Research and Development and fire most of its scientists will have far reaching consequences that will outlive this administration. Eliminating 75 percent of biologists, chemists, toxicologists, and other experts at ORD is sickening. The
Secretary Noem's propaganda video
The propaganda video posted by Homeland s Secretary Noem in El Salvador is appalling. Posing with prisoners is reminiscent of both Abu Ghraib and the ISIS propaganda videos. All for posturing to satisfy the sick perversions of a despicable President. You support this by having confirmed her appoint
Couldn't get the legislative process to work , so now you're burning it all down
This is the deconstruction of the administrative state that steve bannon has been talking about for ten years. Just admit it!
Illegal Arrests and Deportations
This pattern of detaining lawful immigrants like doctoral students without substantiated security concerns is alarming and unacceptable. Arresting individuals solely for exercising free speech rights or involvement in protests sets a dangerous precedent that threatens core American values. If these
We Need You to Stand Up to Trump’s Retaliation Tactics
I am writing to you as a deeply concerned Alaskan alarmed by the dangerous and deliberate erosion of American democracy under Donald Trump’s influence — and by Congress’s troubling silence in the face of it. What we are witnessing is not merely the return of a controversial political figure. It is
The severe cuts to HHS that was announced will hobble our country and create a brain drain. The administrations claims that such deep cuts to the FDA, CDC and NIH and CMS won’t be harmful are preposterous. The huge cuts will have a devastating impact on public health services across the US. The sens
Respect Greenland's sovereignty and self-determination
I understand the desire to exert American influence and strength on the global stage. However, attempting to annex or take control of Greenland through military means would be a misguided and damaging approach that goes against core American values of self- determination and democracy. Such actions
