Hunter Campaign Fund Misuse Trial

- Contact Rep. Hunter and ask him to resign now for pleading guilty to stealing more than $150,000 campaign funds. He cannot be on any congressional committees nor vote on any House legislation. He has spent most of his term fighting his indictment which he has now pleaded guilty: a term where he earns a $174,000 annual salary, and set to earn more than $10,000 the rest of the year. He stated that he would resign after the holidays, and yet he still hasn’t resigned.
United States and Iran Conflicts

- Contact Senator Feinstein and Senator Harris and tell them that you’re concerned about the Trump Administration’s escalations of tensions between the United States and Iran. Ask them to demand answers as to why “President Trump personally ordered the assasination in Iraq of Iranian Qassem Soleimani, the long time leader of the Quds Force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, all without notice to Congress”. And state your support of S.J.Res.13 “to repeal the authorizations for use of military force against Iraq, and for other purposes.” See No War With Iran, Require Congressional Approval for the Use of Military Force, Demand Your Representative Rein in Trump’s March to War, and Statement: We Must Pull Back From the Brink of War.
