Yesterday, the House of Representatives passed a resolution to revoke Trump's fake emergency declaration. Now the Senate must hold its own vote within 18 days
In just the last few days, CREDO members made almost 2,000 calls to members of the House of Representatives. Now we need to put massive pressure on the Senate to reject Trump's racist power grab. Can you contact your senators today and demand that they do the right thing?
Donald Trump's emergency declaration to steal billions for his wall and anti-immigrant agenda is an attack on our communities and democracy. But this isn't just about a wall. It's about a racist autocrat determined to lock up and deport immigrants by any means necessary.
Trump's unconstitutional power grab gives him vast new powers to undermine our democracy and supercharge his white supremacy. Declaring a state of emergency gives him access to more than 100 statutory powers that would allow him to override the laws that protect our civil rights and civil liberties, unleashing a range of nightmarish scenarios at the border and in communities across the country.1 He'll be more able than ever to escalate his attacks on immigrants, communities of color, Muslims, and Black and Brown people.
Congress must use its authority to stand up to Trump before he erodes our democratic norms and institutions any further. We need every senator, regardless of party, to do their duty and rein Trump in.
Tell your senators: Protect our democracy. Pass the resolution to revoke the #FakeTrumpEmergency. Click the links below to contact your senators.
