Tell Your Representative: No Payouts for Insurrectionists!
Call your Representative
The Department of Justice announced the creation of a nearly $1.8B slush fund that Trump plans to use to pay insurrectionists with our tax dollars. And if that was not enough, Trump is claiming that this was in “exchange” for dropping his lawsuit against the IRS and had his henchmen at the DOJ include language demanding permanent protection from prosecution for Trump and his family.
Beyond the reality that this is yet another brazen attempt at stealing public funds to reward his cronies, this is unconstitutional. Only Congress can decide how our funds are spent, and even the GOP agrees. But instead of blocking the slush fund, Republicans packed up and went home for recess early while they buy more time to avoid doing anything on the slush fund and prepare to jam through billions for ICE and Border Patrol.
Let’s call their bluff and see what, if anything, Republicans are willing to stand for besides their wannabe King. There are several pieces of legislation in Congress that would block this money and create guardrails around federal settlement funds.
Every Member of Congress, regardless of party, should be opposed to this egregious overreach. Urge them to block Trump’s slush fund now.
Here's Your Script:
Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I’m a constituent from [Your City, State]. I am calling to demand that [Rep. Name] join legislation to say no to payouts for insurrectionists.
At a time when families are struggling to put food on the table, and fill up our gas tanks – I am appalled that $1.8B is set to be taken away from tax payers and redirected to pay off violent extremists and political allies.
It is unacceptable for Congress to remain silent on this blatant corruption. I expect my senator to block this unconstitutional theft of our tax dollars and direct federal funding to making life more affordable for working families.
