FEDERAL:
Impeach:
Tillis came out today with yet another defense of Trump, despite the fact that Gordon Sondland’s testimony implicated not only Trump but Giuliani, Pompeo, Bolton, and even Pence. It’s now clear that Trump attempted to extort political favors from Ukraine. We need to keep pushing our Senators to let them know that North Carolina voters believe that Trump violated the law and that he should be held accountable. We can also keep pressuring our House Reps and Senators to support impeachment, too.

Hello, I am a constituent from ____________ calling to urge Sen. ________________ to support the impeachment of Donald Trump and his removal from office.

Oppose the Refugee Ban:
The Trump-GOP is once again attacking the rights of refugees and other migrants. The Trump Administration announced it would set a refugee cap of 18,000 people for the fiscal year, which is an incredibly small number, and the order would also allow states to ban resettlement. They have also not allowed a single refugee into the United States in the month of October. These changes to US refugee policy are “tantamount to destroying the program,” according to experts, as the amount of people displaced worldwide continues to grow. Let’s do what we can to stand up for the rights of refugees to seek asylum in our country.

Hello, my name is _____________ and I am a constituent from ______________ calling to urge Rep./Sen. ______________ to oppose Trump’s attempts to shut down our refugee program. It is a travesty that Trump will only allow 18,000 refugees into our country this year. Worse, no refugees have been admitted into the United States in the entire month of October. These refugees are often fleeing completely inhumane conditions in their country. We need to welcome them into our country.
