       Thanks to widespread public opposition from you and others, Democratic senators are now leading a crucial overnight floor protest - speaking out on the Senate floor against Russell Vought's nomination as Director of the Office of Management & Budget (OMB). While they lack the votes to block his confirmation, this protest creates a crucial moment for public pressure and can demonstrate what we need from our elected officials in this moment of constitutional crisis.As the architect of Project 2025, Vought represents an unprecedented threat to our constitution, our separation of powers, and specifically to working families - his record shows he will unilaterally block funding Congress has approved, slash healthcare, housing, education, and child tax credits, and rescind critical protections for civil rights and the environment.CALL YOUR SENATORS NOW: 202-224-3121If your Senator is a Republican:Tell them that Russell Vought's nomination threatens their own constitutional authority, including:Blocking funding that Congress has already approved and appropriatedCircumventing Congress's power of the purseRescinding regulations under vital environmental and equal protection laws without Congressional approvalCutting critical taxpayer dollars for your state supporting schools, health centers, food assistance, and other vital programsRemind them: This is not about party politics – it's about protecting Congress's constitutional powers from executive overreach.If your Senator is a Democrat:Thank them for this current action and push them to keep doing everything in their powers to stop not just this dangerous nomination, but all of the executive actions taking place to threaten our democracy. Their resistance must protect:Congress's constitutional authorityCivil service protections and the rule of lawCritical funding for vital government programs supporting education, healthcare, legal assistance, environmental protections, and more.EVERY CALL MATTERS. Make yours now at 202-224-3121Time is of the essence.
