The House introduced a spending bill that didn't include provisions to allow DC to spend its own tax dollars. If the bill passes, DC’s budget will be reduced by $1 billion. Before 4:00, call Mike Johnson at 202-225-2777 and ask him to “restore language to the CR that protects DC’s current budget."

Remember when the WH insisted that global HIV prevention & treatment was exempt from the freeze? When it seemed MAYBE they understood that cutting off medicine could put the entire planet at risk of drug resistant HIV strains? Wrong. Elon Musk’s interns were simply shutting payments off manually.

Consider calling your representatives TODAY to encourage compliance with Judge Ali's Temporary Restraining Order on the foreign aid freeze. The 5 calls script is great but consider adding the need to follow the court order and lift the freeze. USG is NOT in compliance. 5calls.org/issue/usaid-...

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

See you at 11:30 at Upper Senate Park. Afterwards, consider visiting members of the Foreign Affairs Committee to ask why they're allowing an unelected billionaire to do *their* jobs? www.usaidstopwork.com/rallyinforma...

Outside of USAID headquarters, Senator Brian Schatz: "If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don't like or that you disagree with by executive order, or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers." BOOM!
