Emergency Action Kit

🚨 URGENT: Senate Vote Targeted for July 4th - We Have 4 Weeks

📞 ACTION 1: CALL YOUR SENATORS DAILY

• Find Your Senators' Phone Numbers
• Senate Switchboard: (202) 224-3121 (They'll connect you to any senator's office)
• Find by State: senate.gov/senators/senators-contact.htm

"Hello, my name is [YOUR NAME] and I'm a constituent from [CITY, STATE]. I'm calling to urge Senator [NAME] to vote NO on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

Section 70302 eliminates judicial checks on executive power by preventing courts from enforcing contempt orders against government officials.

Section 43201(c) bans state AI regulation for 10 years, allowing unlimited election disinformation. The bill also allows Treasury to revoke nonprofit tax status without clear standards.

The Congressional Budget Office confirms this transfers wealth from working families to billionaires. This is not partisan politics - this is constitutional destruction. Please vote NO. Thank you."

Call Tips:

• Best times to call: 9 AM - 11 AM and 2 PM - 4 PM (Eastern Time)
• What to expect: You'll likely speak to a staff member who will log your position
• Be polite but firm: Staff are doing their jobs - your message is for the senator
• Call BOTH senators: Even if one typically votes with your position
• Call daily: New calls = continued pressure
• Use the same script: It's perfectly fine to read the exact same script every day - repetition shows sustained concern and makes it easier for you

🚨 The One Big Beautiful Bill Act isn't about taxes - Section 70302 eliminates judicial oversight of the executive branch. Courts would lose the power to enforce contempt orders against government officials. This is constitutional destruction. #StopOBBBA #DefendDemocracy

I just learned something alarming. The House passed a bill that includes Section 70302, which would make it impossible for federal courts to enforce contempt orders against government officials. If a court rules the president is breaking the law, the court won't have the funding to hold anyone accountable. This eliminates a fundamental check on executive power. The Senate is voting by July 4th. Please call your senators and ask them to vote NO on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

Subject: Urgent: Senate Vote Could Eliminate Judicial Oversight

Hi [NAME],

I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because something passed the House that I think you should know about.

The "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" does three unprecedented things:

1. Section 70302 makes it impossible for courts to enforce contempt orders against government officials

2. Transfers wealth from working families to billionaires (confirmed by Congressional Budget Office)

3. Gives Treasury power to destroy nonprofits by claiming they support terrorism

Section 43201(c) also bans all state AI regulation for 10 years, meaning unlimited election disinformation.

The Congressional Budget Office confirmed the bottom 10% of Americans lose 4% of their resources while the top 10% gain 4%. But the bigger issue is that this eliminates the courts' ability to check executive power.

The Senate is voting by July 4th. Could you call your senators and ask them to vote NO? It takes 2 minutes and could help save our system of checks and balances.

Senate switchboard: (202) 224-3121
