Activate America: Actions to take right now

Just got this in my eail and thought I'd share it:

Oppose the Nominations

Call or email your Senator to oppose the nominations of the Unacceptable 4: Gabbard, Kennedy, Patel, Vought. More info can be found at https://www.nixthenoms.com/ .

Criminal Referral for Security Breach
A 25 year old who’s worked for Elon Musk companies now has direct control over a Treasury system disbursements software. Call or email your Congressmember to make a criminal referral to DOJ/FBI to stop the greatest security breach in American history.

Find Your Representative's contact info https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative

More on this from Simon Rosenberg: “In the past few days two Federal courts ruled against the Trump regime’s attempt to steal/stop Congressional mandated expenditures to all of us. The law is on our side, and we must continue to attempt to apply it. Whether Trump’s people enforce it is another matter. In moments like this we must continue to act is if the laws, norms and rules of our democracy still apply or we are obeying in advance, ceding democratic terrain to them, giving them wins. Elon Musk and his team are on a crime spree and we should be calling on them, loudly, to be stopped, immediately, arrested and prosecuted.

Postcards to Wisconsin Voters
The Wisconsin State Supreme Court election is on April 1. The court currently has a 4-3 pro-democracy, pro-civil rights majority, and electing Judge Susan Crawford will maintain that majority. Republicans currently hold 75% of the congressional seats in this purple state and are highly motivated to take back a majority on the state Supreme Court, especially to avoid the potential for new fair Congressional maps. Democrats are rallying around Judge Crawford. She brings extensive experience, serving now as a Circuit Court judge; she respects the rule of law; and she won’t let bullies trample on our freedoms or our democracy. Please join us in supporting Judge Crawford’s election! Sign up here for postcards: https://www.activateamerica.vote/postcards
