CALL NOW: Tell your Democratic Senator to Shut Down the Senate During Trump’s Power Grab
Donald Trump is attempting (another) coup.
Since taking office, Trump and Elon Musk have worked together to defund the federal government from the inside while consolidating power into the hands of a right-wing elite. Their goal is clear: gut federal agencies, strip public resources, and redirect power and money into their own hands.
And there is absolutely no reason that Senate Democrats should just go along with business as usual while this power grab is underway. They have the tools at their disposal to play procedural hardball and shut down Republicans’ extremist agenda. Those tools include:
- Blanket opposition: Vote “NO” on every Trump nominee, starting with Russell Vought (pronounced “Vote”), the Project 2025 architect that Trump wants to run the Office of Management and Budget.
- Weaponizing quorum calls: Disrupt official business by calling for a quorum check at any opportunity and walking out if Republicans don’t have 51 votes on the floor.
- Blocking unanimous consent: Eat up as much floor time as possible by objecting to unanimous consent requests and forcing each procedural step to take the maximum amount of time.
Democrats have to fight back and make governing so painful for Republicans that they can’t just steamroll their agenda. The more that Dems can disrupt, obstruct, and delay, the less damage Republicans can do.
Fill out this form right now and we’ll connect you to your senator. Tell them that they cannot cooperate with Republican extremists. Let them know you expect them to use every procedural weapon that they can to shut down the Senate and thwart Trump’s agenda.

No business as usual while Trump and Musk work to defund the federal government
Hello, I’m a constituent from [part of state], and I’m calling to tell [Senator] that I’m deeply concerned about Trump’s outrageous power grab.
Under no circumstances should [Senator] cooperate with this extremist Republican agenda. The only way to stop Trump’s agenda is to make governing impossible for Republicans, so I expect them to obstruct, disrupt, and delay as much as possible, using the procedural tools available, including:
- Voting NO on every Trump nominee, especially Russell Vought. Trump wants him running OMB because he will just enable the power grab.
- Blocking unanimous consent. Force Republicans to waste floor time and fight for every single vote.
- Weaponizing quorum calls. If they don’t have the numbers, shut the Senate down.
Let [Senator] know that Democrats cannot afford to "wait and see." This is an emergency and they must fight back because our democracy depends on it.
Your call to Senate Democrats makes all the difference! Tell all your friends to call as well!
