The deadline for the Senate vote on Republicans’ Continuing Resolution to avoid a government shutdown is midnight Friday night. Passage of the CR would give the Trump/Musk broligarchy full rein to continue dismantling our federal government.
It’s time to flood our Senators’ offices with phone calls and emails demanding they stand firm and vote against the continuing resolution. Here’s a nice script you can follow on your call, courtesy of Indivisible:
“My name is [ ] and I live at [address]. As a constituent I’m urging Senator [Durbin or Duckworth] to oppose the extreme Republican continuing resolution that threatens our communities and further empowers the Musk takeover of our government. Instead, the Senator should push for a clean bill that reins in DOGE.”
The Senators’ DC offices are open 9 am - 5 pm, Eastern time. If you can’t get through to their DC offices, there are several alternatives. Here’s all the pertinent contact information:
