Indivisible Action: Nationwide Call Your Senators Day - END THE SHUTDOWN - NO MONEY FOR TRUMPS WALL - (202) 224-3121.

https://www.senate.gov/general/contacting.htm

What you can do now:
First, call or email your two Senators and tell them to reject Trump’s extreme anti-immigrant bill and instead open up the government now! There will be two votes in the Senate this week, one on Trump’s anti-immigrant bill and one on a clean continuing resolution that would fund the government through Feb. 8. We need to make sure that the Senate doesn’t pay Trump’s ransom. Tell them to:

Vote NO on Trump's racist, anti-immigrant bill.
Vote YES on a clean CR.

Then, check in with your House Representative to make sure they know you oppose Trump’s wall ransom. The House has done its job by passing funding bills and sending them over to the Senate, where McConnell has refused (until now) take any of them up. But we’re hearing House offices are getting calls from conservative groups who want Trump’s wall.

Call your House Representative and tell him/her you don’t want your taxpayer dollars going to fund Trump’s wall.

On Wednesday, January 23rd we’ll be taking national coordinated action across the country with a National Call Day—join in by calling 844-236-2373 (and then post a picture of your call!).

Office visits. As always, in-person actions are the most impactful way to pressure your MoCs. When you’re there, ask Democratic Senators to oppose the White House immigration bill when the Senate votes on it, and continue opposing any legislation unrelated to the shutdown. Ask Republican Senators to publicly pressure Mitch McConnell to put the House-passed legislation to a vote in the Senate. And if there are town halls on the weekend (or if Senate Recess still happens), folks should also go to those as well! Share your event photos and videos with us on Twitter @IndivisibleTeam and use the hashtag #TrumpShutdown so we can help amplify.

Phone calls. Keep up the pressure by making consistent phone calls using the script below. It’s even better if you can coordinate specific days that your whole group will make phone calls. And we’ll be having a National Call Day on Wednesday, January 23rd! Make a plan to make some calls to your Senator on the 23rd along with Indivisibles across the country—and don’t forget to share a picture or video of your call on social media. When you call, ask Democratic Senators to oppose the White House immigration bill when the Senate votes on it, and continue opposing any legislation unrelated to the shutdown. Ask Republican Senators to publicly pressure Mitch McConnell to put the House-passed legislation to a vote in the Senate.

Support federal workers. In addition to the above tactics, another way to help during the shutdown is support federal workers. Whether through food drives, lending a hand to folks in your community, etc., there are a variety of ways to take support these workers during the shutdown. While this may not be directly pressuring your Senator, it’s important to continuing showing up for folks who are struggling because of Trump’s shutdown.
