Political Action — Contact your officials NOW!
Typically, a Republican member of Congress said her office receives about 40 calls a minute. That has zoomed up to 1,600 calls a minute and growing since President Trump signed a slew of executive orders and unleashed Elon Musk to probe a variety of government agencies. Republican lawmakers are also getting a backlash from their constituents including farmers who report their employees are not showing up for work because of the threat of deportation, with other farmers and businesses being hit economically due to Trump’s dismantling of the U.S. Agency for International Development. Not sure how this is suppose to reduce the price of consumer goods for Trump supporters promised by the new administration? Add to this rising egg prices due to the impact of the spreading Bird flu (and the killing of massive flocks of chickens), and rising prices for consumer goods to be paid for by Americans due to the Trump tariffs on China, and potentially other countries, don’t hold your breath if you are expecting to pay less at the grocery store.
One of the strongest weapons American voters have is flooding the phone lines and clogging up the emails of elected officials, state and nationwide, and of officials of all parties, to let your voice be heard.
