FEDERAL ACTION ALERT – April 30, 2023
Produced by Democrats of the Red Rocks and Coconino County Democratic Party
A. Join the Grand Canyon Tribal Council in asking President Biden to establish a new
monument. The one at issue is called Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni Grand Canyon
National Monument. It would protect over one million acres adjacent to the Grand
Canyon National Park. Baaj Nwaavjo means “where tribes roam” for the Havasupai
Tribe, and I’tah Kukveni means “our footprints” for the Hopi Tribe.
B. Demand our House Representative renounce the “Limit, Save, Grow” Act!! This right-
wing fantasy would cause untold harm and may plunge our country into a recession.
Republicans are using the debt limit as an excuse to remove 1.7 million women and
children from their SNAP (Food stamps) benefits, would cut $30 Billion from Veterans’
programs, would kick 100,000 children out of childcare, would deny more than
1,000,000 families affordable housing, would impose onerous requirements in order to
access Medicaid health insurance, and more! Demand Representative Crane denounce
this draconian act!!
C. Demand our Senators support the new bill to ban assault weapons. Senators Bernie
Sanders and Senator Amy Klobuchar have introduced a new bill to ban assault weapons.
If you have been paying attention you know that such a ban is desperately needed!!
How many more mass killings done by people using assault weapons do we have to
experience before we actually DO something?? Make it Happen!!
D. Demand our House Representative support the EACH Act!!! The Each Act is the Equal
Access to Abortion Coverage in Health Insurance. This is the first piece of abortion
access legislation introduced in the new Congress. It would end the Hyde Amendment –
an archaic, decades-old provision that bans abortion coverage for people enrolled in
Medicaid and other federal programs – and the EACH Act would prohibit the federal
government from interfering with private insurance companies that choose to cover
abortion care. Insist that our representative support the EACH Act!!
