important that we share activities such as this on DU. And that people participate. There's a storm coming, and we need to protect groups & individuals that are fighting the Good Fight.

I've let Bend the Arc know I shared this on DU. Then sent them a link.

Much appreciated.

out that language.

It is very important.

If you aren’t Jewish? Can I change the script?

Help, please. TY!

❤️

need to be Jewish. I'm Irish, and have supported Bend the Arc for years. It is one of the most important groups in our country today.

I change the script? I hesitate to change other people's work without some ok or permission.

Calls urgently needed: protect our right to dissent
We need your voice urgently to protect our ability to organize and dissent under the incoming Trump administration.

This week, the House of Representatives will vote on H.R. 9495, the so-called "Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act."

The name is misleading: This bill would actually give Trump the power to investigate and effectively shut down any tax-exempt organization.

Use this call tool and script to tell your Rep. to vote NO on the bill this week.

CALL SCRIPT:

Hi, my name is {NAME}, and I’m calling to urge {REPRESENTATIVE} to vote NO on H.R. 9495 when it comes up for a vote this week. This bill would give Trump the power to investigate and effectively shut down any tax-exempt organization — without any explanation required.

As an American Jew, I know the dangers a second Trump presidency poses. It is critical that we are able to dissent, resist, and mobilize, with robust nonprofits that protect our freedoms, families, and futures.

This bill is a threat to our democracy and it’s critical that {REPRESENTATIVE} votes NO on H.R. 9495. Please tell them that their constituents are following along closely, and we expect them to protect our democracy.

"As a human being, ....."

Thanks! ❤️

as a tax payer, as a voter in your district…

yeah, those scripts r just to give ppl the idea. you’re almost always welcome to write your own.

Thank you.

I had to leave a message and was assured someone would call me back shortly.
