​
Dear Senator/Representative/Member of Congress:
​
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
My community is scared, and we need you to stand up and fight! Defend your legislative and constitutional authority.
Use every tool at your disposal to oppose Trump's executive orders and unconstitutional acts.
Please be fearless and visible. Let us know what you are doing - be outspoken!
Waiting for Trump and his allies to self-destruct only enables the bullying and fuels their fascist actions.
We are watching—show us bold leadership in action NOW!

If you are leaving a voicemail, be sure to leave your full address to ensure your call is counted.
GENERAL ISSUES
ELON MUSK
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
​
I’m calling to express my outrage over Elon Musk’s unlawful and undemocratic takeover of the federal government, and I ask that [REP/SEN NAME]…
[Choose 1-3 reasons:]
​
— Forcefully speak out against an unelected billionaire having undue influence on and control over our government’s data, personnel, and payment systems;
— Refuse to cooperate with Musk's private enterprise masking as a government agency;
— Support any legal challenges or investigations into Musk and his organization's activity;
— Halt all work in Congress until the unconstitutional power grabs stop.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

TARIFFS
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
​
I'm calling [REP/SEN NAME] because I’m outraged that Trump's tariffs will make food, gas, and other essentials more expensive for American families like mine. These tariffs will disrupt supply chains, raise costs for businesses, and put hundreds of thousands of jobs at risk. Even Trump himself admitted these tariffs will hurt us.
​
I ask that [REP/SEN NAME] speak out against these tariffs and demand accountability before more damage is done.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

RUSSELL VOUGHT
Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
​
I’m calling to demand [REP/SEN NAME] vote against the confirmation of Russell Vought as Director of the Office of Management and Budget. His enthusiastic support for the blatantly unconstitutional federal funding freeze and other misuses of financial power renders him unfit to serve as our government’s budget chief.
​
Thank you for your time and consideration.
