— actions
- high
Call your senators about the PRO Act
Three minutes. A short script. Call both of your US senators' offices about the Protecting the Right to Organize Act.
- high
Defend the IRA's clean-energy tax credits
The IRA's clean-energy provisions are the largest US climate investment in history. They are also the most consistent target for repeal.
- high
Oppose voucher / ESA expansion in your state
Voucher proposals are advancing in many state legislatures. Constituent opposition has repeatedly defeated expansions when put to voters; legislative pressure is the active lever.
- high
Push to expand Medicare drug price negotiation
First round produced 38-79% price cuts on ten drugs. Expansion to a broader list — and to private payers — needs constituent pressure.
- high
Push for VA staffing and PACT Act implementation funding
PACT Act delivered. Implementation requires sustained appropriations to clear backlogs and maintain healthcare capacity.
- high
Support the Equality Act
Closes the federal gap left after Bostock by extending civil rights protections to sexual orientation and gender identity in housing, education, and federally funded programs.
- high
Support the Better Care Better Jobs Act
Substantial federal HCBS investment to address the 700,000-person waiting list and direct-care worker wage crisis.
- high
Tell your senators to support the PRO Act
The single most consequential pro-labor legislation seriously considered in three decades. Reintroduced; needs Senate movement.
- high
Support the Right to IVF Act and Right to Contraception Act
Two narrower but politically tractable federal protections that have produced position-clarifying votes.
- high
Support the Women's Health Protection Act
Federal codification of pre-Dobbs abortion access. Has passed the House; Senate procedural posture is the binding constraint.
- medium
Push for immigration court funding and reform
Three million pending cases. Years-long waits. The fix is operational and bipartisan in principle. The political will is the missing variable.
- medium
Push for an independent redistricting commission in your state
Active campaigns in Ohio, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida, and others. The 2030 census is the deadline.
- medium
Push for Medicaid expansion in your state (if you live in a holdout)
Ten states still haven't expanded. Roughly 4 million Americans are in the resulting coverage gap. State-level pressure works.
- medium
Submit a public comment on OSHA's heat-injury rule
The federal heat-illness standard is in proposed-rule status. Public comments shape the final rule.
- medium
Support the American Privacy Rights Act
The US is the largest economy without a comprehensive federal privacy law. APRA is closer to passage than any predecessor.
- medium
Support repeal of the 2001 and 2002 AUMFs
Bipartisan in principle; the 2002 AUMF repeal has advanced. The 2001 repeal needs a replacement framework — and constituent pressure for it.
- medium
Support the DISCLOSE Act
The most achievable structural reform on money in politics. Disclosure survives Citizens United; the political opposition is donor-driven, not constitutional.
- medium
Support reform of qualified immunity and federal use-of-force standards
Federal civil rights enforcement against state actors depends on qualified immunity reform that has had substantial bipartisan technical support.
- medium
Support platform antitrust and the American Innovation and Choice Online Act
The DOJ search ruling was the easy part. The remedies fight, AICOA, and parallel cases will shape competition for the next decade.
- medium
Support PSLF codification and IDR protection
PSLF works now. Codifying the 2021-2023 reforms in statute would protect the program from administrative reversal.
- medium
Support mandatory funding for the Indian Health Service
IHS funding has been chronically below comparable federal health programs for decades. Mandatory funding addresses the structural cause.
- medium
Support state-court litigation and ballot measures on redistricting
After Rucho closed federal courts to partisan-gerrymandering claims, state-level work has produced real wins. The next round needs sustained engagement.
- medium
Support state-level zoning reform where it's advancing
Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Colorado, and others are considering zoning preemption reforms that have produced real housing-supply progress in OR, CA, WA, and MA.
- medium
Support the Transformation to Competitive Integrated Employment Act
Phase out the disability subminimum wage. Bipartisan support in principle; legislative bandwidth has been the missing variable.
- medium
Support just-cause eviction and right to counsel in your jurisdiction
The two most consequential tenant protections — and both are typically state-or-local-level fights.
- medium
Support the Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding Schools
Federal commission to investigate the Indian boarding school era — the institutional pattern that produced multi-generational trauma still being reckoned with.
- medium
Defend the GI Bill against for-profit college predation
The 2021 90/10 reform was a win. Continued enforcement, the gainful employment rule, and borrower-defense protection for veterans need ongoing defense.
- medium
Testify on state climate resilience and insurance reform
Insurance retreat from climate zones is a state-level question. Most state legislatures are now actively reforming their insurance markets.
- medium
Submit written testimony on your state budget
Most state legislatures accept written testimony on budget bills. It takes 20 minutes and gets entered into the public record.
- medium
Write to your senators about expanding the corporate minimum tax
The CAMT works. Several proposals would expand it. A short letter from a constituent makes the political case visible.
- low
Push for Pentagon audit accountability
Largest federal line item, never passed an audit. The reforms required are bipartisan in principle and tractable in practice.
- low
Support the Stop Wall Street Looting Act
Joint and several liability for private equity owners on portfolio company debts. The single most consequential change to PE accountability.
