3 Ways to Take Quick Action
Join the recess resistance on social
It’s time to turn up the pressure everywhere, including online. Share these posts on social media to let our elected officials know we won't let them go missing this month.
Send lawmakers a postcard
This time it's personal. Your members of Congress need to know how their choices impact YOU.
We're sending them postcards with short, powerful stories all month long, and you can join us with a few clicks–no stamps needed.
What is August Recess Anyway?
Every summer, Congress takes a break and heads home for what’s called August Recess, which means your elected officials are back in your community and way more likely to show up at events, take meetings, and actually listen.
(Well, they SHOULD show up, anyway.)
It’s one of the best opportunities to let them know: we’re all in on reproductive freedom—and we’re demanding them to do the same.
