In our weekly action list, we post some important current issues and responses which include either calling or writing Members of Congress or other government officials.
We can't cover all of the needed actions in one email, so here are some more things you can do this week of April 8, 2019.
Can you believe it? The Washington Department of Corrections banned nonprofits from sending free, used books to prisoners to all prisons in the U.S!! We have to do something about this.
Sign this petition, and this will go to the Department of Corrections.
Don't you think we should do something about THE 15,000 transgendered people in the military? You can make three phone calls to push for equality AND THIS MUST BE DONE BEFORE APRIL 12TH
Call: Senator Duckworth 312-886-3506 and Senator Durbin 312-353-4952 this week. AND your one Representative. Script: Hi. I’m calling from [ZIP] to affirm the dignity of my transgender neighbors. The president’s discriminatory ban is set to take effect April 12. Congress must act to stop it. Anyone who meets military standards should be able to serve, including our 15,000 transgender troops. I urge [NAME] to co-sponsor S.373/H.R.1032.
Speaking of our transgendered neighbors, there are twelve transgender women are eligible for release from Cibola County Correctional Center. (These are asylum seekers.) Problem is, they don't have the money to post bond. The Santa Fe Dreamer's Project is trying to help. You can help by donating to SFDP’s bond fund for their release.
On the topic of immigration, let's think about the immigration judges that are sitting on the bench. We need to make sure their appraisals are not connected to case quotas. We need courts and judges that are impartial.
Call: Senator Duckworth 312-886-3506 and Senator Durbin 312-353-4952
Script: Hi. I’m from [ZIP] and I’m calling about immigration judges. When their performance appraisals are connected to case quotas, they are vulnerable to political interference and manipulation. Our country needs independent judges in our courts. I would like [NAME] to support and co-sponsor the Immigration Court Improvement Act of 2019 (S. 663).
You can support prevention of hate crimes.
Write: FBI Director Christopher Wray, FBI Headquarters, 935 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington, DC, 20535-0001
Script: Dear Director Wray, I am greatly concerned about increasing violence by white nationalists against houses of worship. I support stricter enforcement of existing law to address to this public safety threat. I urge you to meet with religious leaders who wish to advocate with you directly in the near future. My neighbors’ lives are [or my life is] at stake. Thank you.
