The Congressional Switchboard: 202-224-3121. Call and then text some friends so they'll call, too.
Every Republican member of Congress—House AND Senate—will have to decide whether to vote for the bill to gut health care and hand trillions to the super-rich. This bill is intensely unpopular.
Don't let Trump's inexcusable, autocratic military response in Los Angeles reduce your pressure on DC.
