MULTITASKING

BUDGET AND IMPEACHMENT 


While we take note that Portland‘s Gordon Sondland’s revised testimony supports the House’s case that Trump committed impeachable offenses, we also need to focus on the budget. 

The current budget expires November 21. Congress is on recess. When they return they will have only a handful of days to pass a budget. Meanwhile, Trump is openly mulling over the possibility that he will shut down the government to stop the impeachment process.

Don’t forget that he pulled this same stunt last holiday season with a partial shutdown over his useless racist wall. Then, when Congress wouldn’t fund his wall, Trump declared an emergency, taking funding from other projects that left our military and communities hurting. 

Demand that Congress assert its power as a co-equal branch of government.

Fund the Safety Net!

Flat or Reduced ICE and CBP Budget!

Impeach Trump!


**ACTION ONE: CALL OUR SENATORS**

SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR SENATORS MERKLEY AND WYDEN:

“My name is [–] and I’m a constituent from [town/city], Oregon [zip code]. I am calling because . . .

. . . I am worried Trump will sabotage the budget vote and shut down the government to stop the impeachment process.  I ask the Senator to: 

  1. Make sure there are no cuts to our safety net in the budget;
  2. Make sure there are no additional funds for CBP or ICE in the budget;
  3. Keep supporting the impeachment process.

Thank you.

**ACTION TWO: CALL COMPLICIT GREG WALDEN**

SAMPLE SCRIPT FOR WALDEN:

“My name is [–] and I’m a constituent from [town/city], Oregon [zip code]. I am calling because . . . 

. . . I am worried Trump will sabotage the budget vote and shut down the government to stop the impeachment process.  Please tell Greg to:

  2. Make sure there are no additional funds for CBP or ICE in the budget; 
  3. Put country before party and support the impeachment process.  

Through Greg’s actions and inactions, he continues to signal his full support for trumpism, regardless of how much damage Trump is doing to our democracy and to world stability. Know that we are still here and will continue working to flip ORD2 Blue in 2020.

Thank you.”
