This is a great time to enjoy the weekend, spend time with family and friends, head to your local fireworks and parade, and ask your member of Congress a question... Yes, you heard that right. Members of Congress are home in their districts for recess, but they have a lot of unfinished business. Your local parade is the perfect opportunity to shake your representative's hand, hold on tight, and ask these three questions...
- Are you going to leave for recess without a vote to fix Flint?
- Do you have a plan to address the looming climate crisis? What is it?
- Will you vote to eliminate subsidies for the biggest oil companies?
