CALL NOW: Tell Senate Democrats to Hold the Line Against the Extreme MAGA Continuing Resolution

The government shuts down on March 14 unless Congress passes a new spending bill.

Republicans need Democratic votes to pass anything, but instead of negotiating in good faith, they’re pushing for an MAGA continuing resolution (CR) that makes extreme cuts that will jeopardize Social Security, leave tens of thousands of families without homes or food, and slashes benefits to veterans. 

To be clear, this isn’t a “clean” continuing resolution that would keep the government open while they negotiate, it’s a slush fund that gives Trump and Elon Musk even more power over federal spending. Instead of trying to rein in the Trump and Musk power grab, this CR legitimizes it. 

Democrats cannot go along with this CR. They must use their leverage, hold the line, and publicly demand a government funding bill that:

• Rejects extreme funding cuts and MAGA poison pills attacking abortion rights, LGBTQ+ protections, and immigrant communities
• Includes real, ironclad protections to stop Trump and Musk from hijacking federal spending

Until Republicans agree to these terms, Democrats must not support anything beyond a clean, two-week continuing resolution—keeping the government open without giving Trump and Musk a blank check.

And while this Trump-Musk coup continues—while they illegally raid payment systems, try to shut down federal agencies, and fire federal workers—Senate Democrats must use every procedural tool (from blanket holds on nominees to blocking unanimous consent and weaponizing quorum calls) available to fight back and delay and defy the Trump agenda. This is not business as usual.

Fill out this form now, and we’ll connect you to your senator. Tell them they must use their leverage in the funding fight and use every procedural tool available to delay and defy the Trump-Musk coup.
