![☎️Daily Action Friday, October 10
Stop the Deployment of US Military to Police Americans☎️
📚 Background for call
The deployment of troops to Illinois and Oregon is wildly inappropriate and probably illegal. The script today gives us an opportunity to push back yet again about this and make sure our Reps know that we are not in favor.

1️⃣"Hi, my name is [NAME] and I’m a constituent from [CITY, ZIP]. I’m calling to demand that [REP/SEN NAME] condemn the Trump administration’s deployment of National Guard troops to American cities. Using the military to police Americans is a costly abuse of power designed to scare communities and silence dissent. It must be immediately rejected. Thank you for your time and consideration."
☎️ Extra Credit! Call Governor Ivey 334-232-7100
🔹We don't know that Governor Ivey will receive a request from Trump but we want to make sure that she rejects it if it comes

Using the military to police Americans is a costly abuse of power designed to scare communities and silence dissent. It must be immediately rejected."

![Call & Comment about EAC Proposal to Change Voting Requirements
The U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC)—a bipartisan agency created to help states run elections—is now considering a proposal that would require voters to show a passport or other proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote. This echoes previous failed attempts, like the SAVE Act (good job calling about this over the summer!!) and a blocked executive order, to impose restrictive proof-of-citizenship rules.
To combat this proposal, call your representatives AND leave a comment
Script for calling :
Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I’m a constituent from [City, Zip Code].
I’m calling to urge [Representative/Senator Name] to speak out against the U.S. Election Assistance Commission’s proposal to require proof of citizenship, like a passport, to register to vote. This policy would make it harder for millions of eligible Americans—especially students, women, and low-income voters—to register and participate in elections. Most Americans don’t have a passport, and states already verify citizenship effectively during registration.
This “show-your-papers” rule is unnecessary, burdensome, and would suppress legitimate voters. I’m asking [Representative/Senator Name] to publicly oppose this proposal and urge the EAC to reject it. Voting is a fundamental right, not a privilege.
Steps for making a comment :
The EAC is accepting public comments now, and anti-voter groups are flooding the site. Let’s fight back.
Submit your comment today opposing this proposal and defending the right to vote. Comments will be received until October 20!
• Go to the petition and click “comment”.
• Share why you oppose this proof of citizenship requirement.
• Choose whether to share your name and information or submit your comment anonymously.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:r6foxcfryyzazfbajthdjo42/bafkreifs5qf6s2xmxzqjui4dtpxgr2v3rkj5kyxhzvoc7f4426ihwpabka@jpeg)
![Your voice is one of the few tools we have left to defend science and truth.Call as many days of the week as you can
Both the President and HHS Secretary RFK Jr. are giving unsound medical advice, including discouraging Tylenol use during pregnancy — a claim not supported by scientific evidence.
RFK Jr. has already weakened vaccine policy, removed protections for children and pregnant women, and spread misinformation that directly undermines public trust and safety.
At the same time, Congress is preparing to let ACA premium tax credits expire, which would raise premiums by over 75% on average for millions of Americans, including thousands of Alabama families.
Call Script ** Demand Accountability in Public Health & Protect Affordable Health Insurance**
Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], and I’m calling from [ZIP CODE], Alabama.
I’m calling because both the President and HHS Secretary RFK Jr. are spreading false and dangerous medical information — including discouraging Tylenol use during pregnancy without scientific basis. These actions undermine trust in science and public health, and they put American lives at risk.
I’m asking you to:
Support impeachment proceedings to remove RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary for mismanagement and misinformation.
Extend the ACA premium tax credits so healthcare remains affordable for Alabama families. Letting them expire will push thousands off their coverage and raise premiums for all of us.
Public health depends on truth and access—both are under attack right now. Please take action to protect science and keep healthcare affordable for everyone.
Thank you for your time.
