We must pressure our members of Congress now more than ever.

People for the American Way

Dear Supporter,

The August congressional recess is here!

We STOPPED the disastrous GOP health care bill -- Congress's most significant attempt to repeal the Affordable Care Act and cut Medicaid funding so far -- but the right-wing attacks are still coming and this recess is a critically important time to resist Trump Republicans' agenda.

Trump and his Republicans allies are using this recess to mobilize their base and shore up their strategies on a number of fronts:

  • Packing the courts with extreme right-wing judges...
  • Passing massive tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy on the backs of the working families and low-income communities...
  • Suppressing voting rights with Trump's so-called 'Election Integrity' Commission...
  • Taking a sledgehammer to the separation of church and state and some of the last campaign finance safeguards we have left...
  • Attacking Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and the Trump administration...
  • Supporting the ideology of his white supremacist base and keeping white supremacist advisors in the White House...

But there are things that YOU can do this recess, while your members of Congress are home, to fight back and resist.

We've created one-page fact sheets on all the urgent issues listed above to help you organize in your community, hold members of Congress accountable, and make your voice heard.

Download the fact sheets here>>

If you are involved with any local group of activists, bring them to your next meeting. Or use them in any other way that is helpful.

Here are some other ways you can get involved this recess:

  • Write a letter to the editor of one of your local papers.
  • Lobby your members of Congress in person.
  • Share information on social media.

Find resources to help you do all of that and more at: www.pfaw.org/ResistanceRecess

And stay tuned to PFAW emails about local opportunities that might come up near you to keep up the pressure to protect health care and fight back on the other critical issues discussed in this email, which are now at the forefront of the GOP's assault on the American Way.

Thank you for your work, your support, and your commitment to defending the American Way.

--Bradley Williams, Digital Organizing Coordinator
