Memes for Bernie @memesforbernie - Tumblr Blog

If you consume fanfic on ao3 and are 18+ and American I need you to lock in and call your senators saying you oppose a federal porn ban. This would effectively ban ao3 and being queer in public, among many other things, due to the intentionally vague language of the bill. I’m counting on queer tumblr and fandom tumblr to help me get the word out that you have to call your senators

A script, if anyone needs:

For dems:

Hi, my name is [name] and I'm a constituent from [your address + zip code]. I am calling Senator [Name] today because I am opposed to censorship measures such as those outlined in the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act. In addition to feeling this bill would lead to dramaticcensorship, its broad definition would risk many marginalized people who are already at risk, and it would also make it harder for victims of the industry to seek help for fear of repercussions. Thank you.

For repubs:

Hi, my name is [name] and I'm a constituent from [your address + zip code]. I am calling Senator [Name] today to speak out against the Interstate Obscenity Definition Act and similar proposals. I believe the government's role in our personal lives should be small and not intrusive, and that this not only is against the constitution, but would waste a lot of tax dollars attempting to enforce it. Thank you.

If you would rather not speak to a person, wait until later in the day and leave a voice mail. Make sure you leave name and address so they can tally it.

In addition to calling, you can also use ResistBot to send an email, fax, or mail (fax and mail cost a few dollars I believe)

It’s not lost on me that Bernie Sanders is the only mainstream politician touring the country rn listening to Americans’ concerns, giving them hope that a better world is still possible. Not campaigning for President, not an election year, just inspiring swing town voters to use their power to incite change in their communities.

Bernie is 83yo, doing the work that every single Democrat could be doing simply in their own district. He’s packing overflow rooms by the thousands in suburban and rural towns, not “democratic strongholds”. It is possible to get through the next four years but the status quo Dems aren’t going to make that happen.

Imagine what a true progressive party could do for the US. Leftist policy is popular and wins elections. Bernie and others have told us this for decades. If you tuned out his message before, I have to wonder what side you’re truly on. Because his shtick has not wavered with everyday Americans.

Not me, us.

Back in November, three Pennsylvania Republicans won seats in Congress by tight margins. Today, the three find themselves navigating the del

A growing group of constituents along the lakeshore are fed up with a lack of "direct" communication from U.S. Rep. Bill Huizenga, R-Zeeland

Shouts of “Do your job!” drown out Rep. Jay Obernolte, R-Hesperia, during recent event.

Keep it up!

Keep calling, keep emailing, keep going to town halls, keep protesting! Dont give them a moments peace! These bastards are cowards who dont like a spotlight put on them. They want to be authoritarians quietly and freak out when people notice them and call them out on it!

If we have to be miserable the next 2-4 years, so do they and we vote them out!

“That’s a shame,” Walz said, responding to the GOP news. “If your Republican representative won’t meet with you because their agenda is so unpopular, maybe a Democrat will.”

“Hell, maybe I will,” he continued in a post on social platform X. “If you congressman refuses to meet, I’ll come host an event in their district to help local Democrats beat ‘em.”

National Republican Congressional Committee Chair Richard Hudson (R-N.C.) advised House Republicans to avoid in-person town halls with constituents and instead to host phone or livestreamed events.
