One thing about me is that I will fight Nazis until I’m six feet in the ground.

@maxwellfrost.bsky.social Hey Rep. Frost! Thank you so much for your work on the bogus “Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act”, or more aptly named, Child Predator Empowerment Act, introduced by GOP. We love to see Dems fighting back against harmful bills! 💕

I’d love to hear from folks on here - what are climate-related content creators missing? What should exist, especially in the podcast space, that currently doesn’t? What sorts of information/stories/content would YOU love to see with climate being the broader lens?

I just made my call for the day! Didn’t even talk to a human, just left a short message, reading what I wanted to say off these tweets!

Don’t let phone anxiety win today, call Sen. Cotton and tell him to stop blocking this bill!

Some reasons you might use or adapt:

This bill is important to me because…

- It protects journalists at all ends of the political spectrum from retaliation for whistleblowing.

- It codifies the freedom of the press granted to us in the constitution.

- Its bipartisan support will create unity.

Blocking this bill shows me that Senator Cotton cares more about whatever political favors he can earn than protecting Arkansans. I am asking that he stop blocking the bill and instead support H.R. 4250. Thank you. (2/2)

Calling is easy, here’s what you say:

Hello! My name is (NAME), and I am a resident of (CITY), Arkansas. I am calling to share my concern with Tom Cotton regarding H.R. 4250, or the PRESS Act. This bill is important to me because (insert REASON here; will respond with options). (1/?)

Okay, Arkansas, let’s be annoying. :)

Great question. HR 9495, the “nonprofit killer” bill, failed on the 12th but Republicans are bringing it back up again this week under a different process that requires only a majority vote to win.

In other words: keep calling your reps.

Fun fact: You can sign up for Congress.gov and then get email alerts for changes/progress with any bill. :)

House GOP Moves to Ram Through Bill That Gives Trump Unilateral Power to Kill Nonprofits A bill to give Donald Trump power to kill nonprofits is still supported by dozens of Democrats — giving the GOP plenty of breathing room.

Keep an eye on this. We’ll see what happens Monday; all Arkansas reps voted for it to pass so we’ll need to flood their offices with calls if it’s back up for a vote.
