Call to Action

CALL TO ACTION! 
Protect Mueller! Fight for a fair tax bill! 
There's bi-partisan-congressional legislation to preserve Mueller's independence and to protect him from being fired by 45. With the recent announcement of an imminent indictment and given the environment created by this administration and it's enablers, it's no surprise with this that we need these protections. 
Senate: 
• S.1735 (The Special Counsel Independence Protection Act) was introduced by Senators Graham (R-SC) and Booker (D-NJ). This would require the Department of Justice seek judicial approval before any firing. 
• S. 1741 (The Special Counsel Integrity Act) was introduced by Senators Tillis (R-NC) and Coons (D-DE). This would allow a special counsel to contest any termination after the fact. 
House: 
• H.R. 3771 (The Special Counsel Integrity Act) was introduced by Representatives Jones (R-NC) and Conyers (D-MI). This would allow the special counsel to challenge his removal in court. 
�Script for Sen. Tillis:�I want to thank Senator Tillis for sponsoring The Special Counsel Integrity Act and ask that he co-sponsor The Special Counsel Independence Protection Act. These acts would ensure that the President can't unilaterally fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller. We need to protect our democracy from foreign influence and ensure that the President is not being influenced by Russia.

Script for Sen. Burr: 
I urge Senator Burr to co-sponsor both The Special Counsel Independence Protection Act and to join Sen. Tillis in sponsoring The Special Counsel Integrity Act. These acts would ensure that the President can't unilaterally fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller. We need to protect our democracy from foreign influence and ensure that the President is not being influenced by Russia. Thank you.

Rep. Jones script:�Thank you Representative Jones for sponsoring The Special Counsel Integrity Act. These acts would ensure that the President can't unilaterally fire Special Counsel Robert Mueller. We need to protect our democracy from foreign influence and ensure that the President is not being influenced by Russia. Thank you.

Vote Against the Tax Bill: 
It's reasonable to anticipate with the passage of the budget that Congress will push more for their tax bill. (Remember this is the one where the uber-rich and corporations get major tax breaks while the poor and middle class get little relief and loose some needed deductions.) Important programs like Medicaid and Medicare could also face sharp cuts to pay for the tax cuts. 
Let's put the pressure on! Some political talking heads are saying there's a chance this can be defeated. 

Script: 
Hello, I am a constituent urging Sen./Rep. _________________ to vote against any tax reform bill that would limit the amount of pre-tax money workers can contribute to 401(k)s. Please support a tax bill that preserves the deduction on state and local taxes which help middle class families. We must also preserve the estate tax. Please oppose any tax bill that will gives tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations on the backs of the poor and middle class. Thank you.

I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts.
