The House of Representatives is currently on Congressional Recess until September 4th, and the Senate through August 14th. This time is allotted for Members of Congress to work in their districts and engage with constituents in the states they represent. It is also the perfect time for them to hold public town halls and hear the concerns of their constituents live and in person.

Your representatives work for you: you should have regular opportunities to discuss their positions, the platforms of their parties, and how their legislative agendas will affect you and those close to you. Town halls are a critical tool for holding representatives accountable for their actions and ensuring that these men and women, who spend much of their time outside of their home states, are hearing the needs and concerns of their constituents in person.

Hold your representatives accountable for their actions and demand they face their constituents while they’re home. If members of Congress refuse to hold a town hall, request an in-office meeting to discuss your concerns.

NOTE: Select a Local Office to call to get the most up-to-date schedule information from staffers.

RESISTBOT: Text the word “resist” to 50409. You will be prompted through to your MoC. It is easy, and your representative receives a fax.

I’m calling to ask if Rep/Senator is planning to have any town halls during the spring recess?

[IF YES] I’d like to RSVP. May I please have the details?

[IF NO] Then I’d like to request that Rep. John H. Rutherford schedule one. There are many pressing matters we constituents should be able to voice our opinion on face to face.

[OPTIONAL] Would Rep/Senator or their legislative aide be available to meet with me to talk about [specific issue you find most concerning]? I have concerns I’d like to discuss.

Trump’s plot to smear the DOJ, the FBI and Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation is in full swing.
House Republicans have relentlessly attacked the investigation, even threatening to impeach or hold Mueller’s boss, Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein, in contempt for failure to hand over highly sensitive documents in the on-going investigation.
Legislation was introduced in April in the Senate and the House to protect Mueller and his investigation, but Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has refused to allow it to proceed.
It seems inevitable that Trump will move against Mueller and his investigation. Congress needs to act on legislation that will protect Mueller, the Russia investigation and the rule of law.
YOUR SCRIPT
[If leaving a telephone message, please leave your complete address so your call will be tallied.]
This is [NAME] and I’m a constituent in [ZIP].
Given Trump’s tweets slamming Special Counsel Mueller and his investigation, I believe it is inevitable he will try to fire him, creating a constitutional crisis. This must not be allowed to happen. I strongly urge [Sen/Rep ____] to support the Special Counsel Independence and Integrity Act (S. 2644/H.R. 5505) to protect Mueller and the Russia investigation and maintain the rule of law.
