Tell the Senate: Reject Emil Bove — Lawyers for Good Government

The Senate is considering the nomination of Emil Bove to a lifetime seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals —and it’s one of the most alarming nominations we’ve seen. Bove helped carry out some of the administration’s most dangerous attacks on the rule of law:

Even if certain politicians try to make us doubt it, We Americans are stronger together. We care for each other. We need radical, un-apologetic empathy from you and from each other right now. This is still a democracy, and We the people have always had the true power here.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Lastly, the One Big Beautiful Bill increases the federal debt ceiling by $5 TRILLION.

But we’ll be saving:
- $930 bil by cutting off Medicaid access to the disabled, elderly, or the underserved
- $170 bil by cutting Medicare and the Affordable Care Act
- $285 bil by cutting SNAP benefits, and
-$52 bil by defunding Planned Parenthood

Expenses from the One Big Beautiful Bill (Senate Version):
- $153 billion to military funding, including building the “Golden Dome”
- Around $150 billion to immigration enforcement
- $25 million more to the $500 million for AI deployment
- over $10 billion for Space Program Funding

OBBB increases the Federal Deficit by $3.8 trillion.

Oppose H.R. 1: the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" - PASSED SENATE - SENT BACK TO HOUSE (UPDATED 7/1) ⭑ 5 Calls Updates July 1, 2025: The Senate has passed H.R. 1 by a vote of 50-51, with J.D. Vance providing the tie-break YES vote. Republican Senators Paul …

The “Big Beautiful Bill” now goes back to the House to be passed. ICE is running out of funding. Trump desperate to pass this quickly. If this does not get passed as written, it will go to Conference Committee. Now is the time to apply pressure to our US Representatives.

The president told a Central American dictator to build five more massive slave labor camps to hold US citizens.

This is terrifying in America. ICE agents are showing up masked—these abductions must stop. If you’re going to detain someone, show your face, present a warrant, and proper ID. Disappearing people from their families without evidence or accountability isn’t law enforcement—it’s state-sponsored fear.

Let’s get good ole Burchett in front of his constituents he continues to ignore. Fight for our voice and right to be heard today!

Takes less than 5 minutes to sign a petition, how fast can you do it👀

I was in the Hands Off! protest in Nashville. Drove 3 hours through heavy rain to get there. Over 1,000 good people showed up despite the weather. There were speakers including a transgender lady like me. I'm fired up. @indivisible.org @uvotn.bsky.social

@MarshaBlackburn & @SenatorHagerty wont do town halls because they can’t face these tough questions. So Senator Warren is.
