Federal government funding runs out on September 30—and Republicans need Democratic votes to clear the filibuster and avoid a government shutdown. Democrats have a strong hand to play. They must use it to deny Donald Trump the blank check Republicans want to hand him!
But in the last big funding fight, Chuck Schumer and a handful of other Dems surrendered—rolling over and letting Trump weaponize federal funds to rob our services, militarize our cities, and terrorize our communities. That cannot happen again.
Remind your senators we cannot hand blank checks to a wannabe king—and ask them to keep publicly pressuring Schumer to FIGHT LIKE HELL!
Senator,
I’m a very concerned constituent writing about the upcoming government funding fight.
We can’t have a repeat of the last government funding fight where Leader Schumer and some Senate Dems rolled over and voted through a partisan Republican spending bill.
I’m counting on you to hold strong and push Leader Schumer to fight for a spending bill that protects healthcare AND puts meaningful checks on Trump.
Sincerely,
