Long story short: tell your Congressfolk to fight price-gouging, save our Postal Service, and reject Project 2025. Use the tools in the upper right-hand corner of this page (or, if you're on a cellphone, the bottom of this page) to find your Congressfolk's phone numbers and/or use the email/petition tools in the following paragraphs.
Demand Progress helps you tell your Congressfolk to impose a windfall profits tax on price-gouging corporations. No, this is not "punishing success," it's punishing greed. Corporations brag about how they're taking advantage of high inflation to push prices even higher and people still say that's just the free market? Jesus Mary and Joseph who do they think free markets should be free for? Should it be free only for the most corrupt corporations? Or for all Americans?
Americans for Financial Reform helps you tell your Congressfolk to stop Postmaster General DeJoy from privatizing our Postal Service. Mr. DeJoy drove up prices, he cut services, and he slashed jobs, and surprise, surprise, now he says our Postal Service is in a "death spiral." But that's just the nature of power now: people fuck everything up and then posit themselves as having "the solution.” Here's a better solution: rebuild the house without “help” from the guy who burned it down.
Finally, the CCAN Action fund helps you tell your Congressfolk to reject all of Project 2025's climate-related proposals. Read the list at the link, because it's horrifying, but long story short: Project 2025 would kill pretty much any agency related to weather or climate or protecting Americans from harm, because BIG GUMMINTZ BADZ!!!!! Good Americans would miss the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. We'd also miss clean water regulations.
