Restore integrity of elections through campaign finance reform.

The unchecked influence of money in politics poses a grave threat to our democratic system. The lack of transparency surrounding Elon Musk's $290 million in campaign spending, coupled with the reported coordination between his super PAC and the Trump campaign, undermines the principles of fair elect

Probe Defense Secretary's Signal use for military strikes

I strongly support the Pentagon watchdog's decision to probe the Defense Secretary's use of Signal for communicating military strike plans against Houthi militants in Yemen. Utilizing a publicly available encrypted messaging app like Signal to discuss sensitive operational details raises significant

Halt these tariffs now

These tariffs will be a disaster for both the US and the world economies. You cannot put the responsibility for this on the President because the Constitution gives Congress this power. Republicans could stop it any time they want. You can’t honestly say you think this economic carnage is going to b

Revoke Presidential Tariffs

Congress must revoke the executive branch's unilateral authority to impose tariffs and restore this power to the legislative branch as outlined in the Constitution. Tariffs levied arbitrarily against allies and trading partners only serve to increase costs for American consumers and businesses while

End tariffs Now! This tariff war is an ill conceived venture by someone who doesn’t understand the implications, who has ignored every single person with any economic education, and who doesn’t know history. Every time tariffs have been put into place historically they have caused a major depression

Protect our Courts

I want the Congressmember to vote no on H.R.1702 the JUDGES Act, which would allow President Trump to appoint 22 new lifetime federal judges, enabling him to stack courts with loyalists. I want the Congressmember to vote no on H.R.1789 the PEPPER Act, which would dramatically expand executive power

Stand up for your Constituents

I’m calling because I know Senate Republicans are about to introduce their new budget resolution, and that they are going to great lengths to hide the fact that it will cut Medicaid and SNAP and blow up the deficit to give tax cuts to rich people. I want the Senator to know that I see exactly what t

I am asking you to please vote along with Sen. Bernie Sanders tomorrow to block $8.8 billion in arms sales to Israel. It sickens me that the U.S. is funding the killing of children in Gaza.

Vote No on the SAVE Act

I am writing to urge you to vote NO on H.R. 22, the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act. The SAVE Act isn’t about safeguarding elections — it’s about silencing voters. That’s wrong, and I expect my representative to oppose it.

Due Process

I’m deeply concerned about the lack of due process being given to foreign residents in the U.S. right now. Due process is enshrined in the Constitution as a safeguard against arbitrary executive power. It mandates that no individual, including noncitizens in the U.S., be deprived of life, liberty or

Reject Damaging Canada Tariffs, Uphold Free Trade Alliances

Trump's tariffs on Canadian imports represent nothing less than a massive tax hike on American working families. These punitive trade actions are projected to cost the average U.S. household up to $2,000 per year in increased costs for everyday goods and consumer items. This regressive tax burden wi

My Social Security and Medicare was paid for - it is not an entitlement. If there is a problem with its solvency, it is due to you or your predecessors mismanagement.

Protect Due Process, Return Those Convicted of No Crimes

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

I do not support House Bill 793 or any related bills to deny public education

I do not support House Bill 793 or any related work to deny public education to undocumented children in TN. From what I've read, this is being done in an attempt to save the state money. However when this is combined with other things like the recent school voucher changes, I do not believe any mon

ALL TN children should have free public education

Please oppose the cruel bills that are targeting our school-age children. ALL children in TN should have a free public education. No child should be denied an education because they or their parents might not be documented immigrants. It serves no good purpose to deny an education to anyone.

Third Presidential Terms Are Illegal

Our president said there are methods that would allow him to run for a third term. There are not. The Constitution prohibits it in no uncertain terms. His statements are shocking but would only be surprising if he had any respect for the law whatsoever. We should expect such criminally minded state
