Call, Write, Post: No to Trumpcare 3.0
TrumpCare 3.0 is likely to come to a vote early this week. The House Rules Committee will meet Monday and Republicans have spent the weekend rustling up votes.

Tell Governor Ducey: no more tax cuts; no more prison beds; and no more stripping funds from local governments to pay for the state’s obligation to support public universities.

Continue readingOppose CR as Sneak Attack on Critical Funding
When Congress reconvenes this week, it will have to pass a stopgap funding bill, known as a “CR” (Continuing Resolution), to fund the government past April 28. But with his 100-day report card looming on that same day, Trump is desperate for any legislative win he can get—so much so that his cronies in Congress […]

HB2244: “Strict Compliance” on Initiatives is up for a vote in the Arizona Senate Wednesday at 11 a.m. This “strict compliance” measure could potentially disqualify pages of petitions because the margin is slightly too wide, or a person writes his name differently than on his voter ID. CALL YOUR SENATORS TO OPPOSE. Call Senator Allen. […]

Trump has nominated Sen. Mark Green (R-TN) as Secretary of the Army. Senator Green has a long history of LGBTQ discrimination. Call Senators McCain and Flake to ask them to oppose Mark Green as Secretary of the Army. We should not go backward in the administration of our military. Nor should we harm the morale of […]

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is hoping to rush through Neil Gorsuch’s confirmation process this week. Gorsuch’s extreme record has left him short of the 60 votes traditionally required to confirm a Supreme Court nominee.
