Action 1: Tell Congress to support the Social Security Emergency Inflation Relief Act
From Jessica Craven at Chop Wood Carry Water 12/5
A new Social Security bill (Social Security Emergency Inflation Relief Act) has been introduced to the House (H.R. 6193) by Representatives John Larson and Steven Horsford and to the Senate (S.3078) by Senator Elizabeth Warren that would give recipients an extra $200 a month until July 2026 to help deal with the increased cost of living. Eligible recipients include Title II Social Security beneficiaries, Supplemental Security Income beneficiaries, Railroad Retirement beneficiaries, veteran disability compensation, and veteran pension benefit annuitants.
Call or email your senators and House rep urging them to support this legislation. Write your own script or use this one:
Senator Warren just introduced the bicameral Social Security Emergency Inflation Relief Act to provide a $200/month emergency increase to Social Security checks until July 2026. Medicare Part B premiums are rising by nearly 10% next year, yet Social Security recipients have received only a 2.8% cost-of-living adjustment, amounting to just $56 per month. It’s not enough. Please ask the Senator/Congressmember to stand with senior citizens and co-sponsor this bill. Thank you.
Action 2: Public lands opponent could lead bureau of land management
From Joe Katz at Rogan’s List 12/17
Last month, Trump nominated Steve Pearce, former Republican congressman and oil industry executive, to lead the Bureau of Land Management, overseeing 245 million acres of public lands. Environmental groups have been raising hell about it ever since. Pearce has a long record of championing the sale of public lands, opposing the protection of national monuments and working to protect fossil fuel companies from paying higher royalties to taxpayers. If he’s confirmed, he could play a crucial role in the regime’s efforts to expose lands that have been protected for the use of regular Americans for generations to exploitation by big corporations.
Follow this link to send a pre-scripted message to your Senators urging them to vote NO on Steve Pearce’s confirmation.
Action 3: Tell Congress to protect AI whistleblowers
From Joe Katz at Rogan's List 11/25
The MAGA agenda is clear: they’re going to let Big Tech run roughshod over us and make sure there’s nothing we can do about it. Artificial intelligence companies’ employees have a unique perspective on the risks and consequences of this emerging technology, and they need protection when they raise concerns internally or to the public. Congress has failed to pass the bipartisan AI Whistleblower Protection Act (S. 1792/H.R. 3460), and the ban on state-level AI regulation they’ve snuck into the must-pass National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) would remove safeguards already passed by our legislatures. We need to speak up!
Let’s contact our members of Congress and demand that in addition to opposing the ban on AI regulation, they need to step up and include AI whistleblower protections in the NDAA.
