Calling ALL Republicans About The Budget Bill {Script Included}

Let's raise hell on this one!

What a Thursday! I’ll start with some background, but if you’re ready to call a Republican member of congress, you can jump straight to the end for the script!

Democrats we need you too though! Keep reading!

Just to make sure we’re all on the same page, the billionaires are trying to protect a massive tax break. There isn’t enough money to go around so they’re going to gut social services like the Department of Education, Social Security, Medicaid, Snap, and more. Here’s AOC breaking it down.

What’s happening is there was supposed to be this one massive bill that would gut everything, but we got to them! The calls and protesting is getting through and they’re backing off. Senators have written a slightly less evil bill and want to move ahead with it, but that doesn’t make Trump very happy and the House of Representatives have a competing bill that is much worse.

Asked whether Vance gave his blessing for the Senate to move forward, Sen. Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., replied that Vance "didn’t say, ‘Stop it, you dumbasses.'"

I just got off the phone with my Senator’s Office (Adam Schiff) and got an update from his staff. They can only move forward with ONE of these bills, so it is essential to call both House and Senate representatives and demand they represent the people, not the billionaires!!

If you have a Republican Senator or House Representative - WE NEED YOU!! Please use the script below (based on a script that Jess Craven shared from Indivisible) today to give your rep a call. We must continue to apply pressure to them from every angle to that they cannot come to an agreement and pass this bill that could end our country’s vital social services for our vulnerable citizens, just so billionaires can become trillionaires.

If all of your reps are Democrats, we need to you too. Find at least one person you know who has a Republican representative and ask them to call. I have even been finding the reps and phone numbers for my friends and family to make it super easy for them. Here’s an exchange I had with my great-aunt who lives in Northern Wisconsin this morning!

(PS - “Babe” is her nickname and everyone calls her that, I don’t just refer to my aunts that way all the time 😝)

Call Instructions

If you need to find your reps, go HERE for the House and HERE for the Senate.

1. Enter your zip code (for House) or state (for Senate) and it will populate your representative and with an icon for their website.

2. Go to their website and look for an option for “Office Locations” This will have their DC office as well as local offices.

3. Try the location nearest to you first and then the DC office. If no one answers at either, leave a message at the DC office.

Script

Hi, my name is [YOUR NAME], and I’m a constituent from [CITY/ZIP CODE]. I know House and Senate Republicans are writing bills that would slash access to health care, public education, and food assistance while giving massive handouts to billionaires. AND it lets Trump and Musk hijack federal funds and override congressional spending decisions. This is not responsible governance—it’s corruption. [CONGRESS MEMBER’S NAME] was elected to represent the people of [YOUR STATE], not Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos.

If Voicemail:

[CONGRESS MEMBER’S NAME] must commit to rejecting any budget that allows Trump to override government spending and attack working families

If Someone Answers:

Will [CONGRESS MEMBER’S NAME] commit to rejecting any budget that allows Trump to override government spending and attack working families?

[If yes:] That’s good to hear. I expect to see a public statement rejecting these extremist attacks.

[If no or unclear:] It’s outrageous that [CONGRESS MEMBER’S NAME] is more focused on helping Trump and billionaires than protecting working families. I won’t forget it. Neither will voters in this district.

[END]

OK that’s it for now. Happy calling and drop a comment to let us know how it went!
