Stand up to Musk and Trump!
 

I know that these are scary, uncertain times. The Musk/Trump administration is committing cruel, illegal actions every day with the express purpose of exhausting people like you and me who care about democracy and equality. They want us to feel terrified and demoralized.

 

But we can’t let them. 


I’m so appreciative of the many Michiganders who’ve reached out over the last month to ask a simple question: “What can I do?” Below are five ideas. We can get Musk and Trump to stand down if enough of us raise our voices!

Affected by the funding freeze? Fill out this form.

While federal courts have ordered Musk and Trump to halt their illegal pause on federal funding, we know organizations receiving federal grants across the country have had their funding shut off without any notice. If you are a resident of House District 56 and an employee or service user of an organization that has lost its funding due to DOGE, I want to hear from you.

Call your US Rep and Senators to demand they use their leverage!

The #1 way everyday citizens can influence the government is by calling their elected officials. Call your U.S. Rep today - Democrat or Republican - to oppose the Musk/Trump agenda. If your U.S. Rep is a Democrat, ask them to hold the line against Trump’s dangerous agenda by voting against the House Republican’s budget bills.  And call our US Senators to demand they oppose the worst of Trump’s cabinet and judicial nominees.

Use the website 5 Calls to channel your righteous anger.

Passionate about an issue, but not sure what to say? The website 5 Calls will give you a script to use, as well as the numbers for your elected officials’ offices. They have templates available for the constitutional crisis, D.E.I. initiatives, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, NIH/NSF research funding, and more.

Follow the NAACP’s Black Consumer Advisory.

The NAACP has made a Black Consumer Advisory in response to companies caving to Trump’s demand that they cease their diversity, equity, and inclusion (D.E.I.) initiatives. While not calling for a boycott, the NAACP wants you to know which companies abandoned their commitment to the modern-day Civil Rights Movement. Another way to support civil rights with your wallet is by buying from a local Black-owned business - click here for a list of great Black-owned businesses in Michigan.

Join a local club to resist the Musk/Trump cruel and dangerous agenda.

If you aren’t part of your local Democratic club yet, the time to join is now! Even more can be accomplished when you join forces with like-minded people. It will also feel less exhausting when you’re among friends. Join today!
