- Call ASAP and call every day this week.

Here’s why the Senate must kill the House CR, even if it risks a government shutdown:
House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries explained, “the legislation does nothing to protect Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, while exposing the American people to further pain throughout this fiscal year.”
Ranking member of the House Appropriations Committee Rep. Rosa DeLauro said, “Republican leadership [is] handing over the keys to the government and a blank check to Elon Musk, and to President Trump … to continue to undermine the Constitution.”
The House-passed CR would further bloat weapons spending by $6 billion and slash essential spending by $13 billion. Democrats in Congress know that the legislation would unconstitutionally let Trump and Musk redirect funding at their whim. They’ve both already targeted Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.
We refuse to become Trump’s prey!
Pitch in to build the movement to resist and defeat Trump and Trumpism.
If the Senate passes the House CR, that would slash Army Corps of Engineers projects to protect people from hurricanes and floods, while letting the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s disaster relief fund run out of money before the end of the fiscal year. That means countless people will die unnecessarily from extreme weather events.
For these and many other reasons, tell your Senators to kill the House CR and pass the Murray/DeLauro CR instead. Call your Senators at (202) 224-3121.
