The Democrats in the senate should not pass funding bills

And they must shut down the federal government until Kristi Noem is fired. Her untrained agents cannot be trusted and she is a total failure as a leader, an American, and a human being.

I cannot support this government nor fund it until this shit ends. Trump does not deserve money for stealing oil, threatening our allies, and murdering our citizens. Let Trumps government eat cake for a change.

Anything less is siding with the pig. No one who supports these funding bills will receive my support in any primary.

We should all be calling at least weekly, if not daily. They actually DO pay attention to the number of calls they get! I need to step up my game, too. I have a weekly appointment & I call my three MOCs right after, in my car. It takes less than 10 minutes most weeks. Not sure what to say? 5 CALLS makes it easy! They keep track of issues & bills & have sample text for messages on all the issues. They have a phone app, too.

5 CALLS

The last time We the People lit up the Capitol switchboard was the financial crisis of 2008. Isn't saving our country just as important? ☎️

Tip: It's proper to leave your name & zip code at the end of your message. Also, in all the times I've called, I've only gotten a real person five times. If you have your 5 CALLS app open, you'll be fine. Just tell them how you feel.
