Today’s Action: End the #FakeNationalEmergency – the House votes TODAY

The House votes TODAY on a joint resolution to terminate Trump’s fake national emergency, which has sideskirted the will of the people and ballooned the cost of his unwanted Mexico border wall from $5.7 to $8 billion (paid for by Mexico… Which is apparently Trump’s word for the American taxpayers).

This illegal, undemocratic, and manufactured national emergency is a dangerous dictator-like step: 6 in 10 Americans are against it, Congress deliberately did NOT vote for it, and the ‘crisis’ is a manufactured and salacious lie to please Trump’s Twitter fanclub. There is NO emergency — undocumented immigrant numbers have actually dropped.

Today’s vote in the House is the first of several steps needed to restore democracy.

Call or email your Members of Congress, and tell them to 1) vote YES on H.J.Res.46 to end the emergency and block any funds for the wall and 2) launch an investigation into abuses of power.

Congress is a ruling body equal to the presidency. For two years, Republicans in both chambers bent over backward to give Trump what he wanted. Now, Trump needs to grow up past a toddler’s understanding of negotiation and learn that throwing a tantrum won’t get him anywhere.

Email or call (202.224.3121) your Members of Congress and tell them to support H.J.Res.46 to end the emergency and block any wall funding, and to next investigate Trump’s abuse of power.
