URGENT= TELL SENATE TO STOP FBI HACKING

11/30/2016

 
First they will hack the muslims, then they will hack the dissidents, then they will hack the liberals…then they will hack us. Think about what this kind of power would do in a McCarthy-esque set of inquiries. No. Just No. Sen. Wyden is not one to raise the alarm necessarily. This is a frightening reduction in privacy. 
“In less than 24 hours a rule change goes into effect giving the government the power to hack into the computers and personal devices of law-abiding citizens without an individual warrant. I’m putting up a fight in the U.S. Senate to delay the rule change and protect our right to privacy and security. Sign, SHARE, and spread the word: Tell the Senate to stop mass hacking before it starts!”

Actions for Democrats, Independents, and Republicans of conscience
There are seven weeks until DJT takes office
This document's intention is to make clear suggestions for action backed with well-considered research. I learned a lesson last week in preparing the first What To Do This Week action checklist: Not everything you find on the internet is valid. In this week's document, I've been more discerning about petitions in particular.

Each statement has at least one practical action to take. At the end, you'll find some good news. While these topics have been well researched, recommendations are still subject to human error. Please do your own research!

Pass the Presidential Accountability Act.  ACTION alert!

11/22/2016

Next Action - Call your congressional representatives to support the Presidential Accountability Act.  by Rep. Katherine Clark, 5th District, MA

U.S. Rep. Katherine Clark introduced a bill today that would force presidents and vice presidents to sort out financial conflicts of interests - all as President-elect Donald Trump - a wealthy businessman - prepares to take office.
“Every recent president in modern history has taken steps to ensure his financial interests do not conflict with needs of the American people,” Clark said in a statement. “The American people need to be able to trust that the President’s decisions are based on the best interests of families at home, and not the President’s financial interests.”
Clark’s bill - the Presidential Accountability Act - would require the president and vice president to put their assets in a certified blind trust or disclose to the Office of Government Ethics when decisions are made that would affect their personal finances.
Currently, federal office holders are forbidden from engaging in government business where they can make a profit, but the president and vice president are exempt from that law.

Action of the Day Friday 11/18

11/17/2016

 
URGENT ACTION FOR FRIDAY, NOV 17th:
Please call the House Oversight Committee and support the call for a bipartisan review of Trump's financials and conflicts of interest. It only takes a few minutes.
CALL: 
(202) 225-5074
SAMPLE SCRIPT: 
"I'm calling to request the committee immediately conduct a thorough review of the president-elect's financial arrangements to ensure there are no conflicts of interest."
That's it. Done. Now, please recruit 5 others to call today (Friday) too.
Firsthand testimony from someone who did: "The woman on the phone said that they are absolutely tallying calls - the more they get, the more likely the Committee is to demand ALL of Trump’s financial information. She said that there’s not much time left, as they are out of the office next week for Thanksgiving. And after that, they’re going to make a decision."
