Frustrated by the Reconciliation Bill? Send a post card to your Senators!
Call them every day including Saturday and Sunday until a vote.
- Postcards available Sundays in the South Commons (with stamps & addresses) until the vote.
- Go to 5calls.org for talking points and contact information.
- Ask them to speak out against the many provisions of the bill. They may be looking to the next election, but the people that they represent are looking at major upheaval in their lives. For example: the Reconciliation bill takes away money normally spent for Medicaid and SNAP in order to dramatically increase immigration enforcement.
