Increase the Pressure

Since President Trump can’t be trusted to protect the nation from Russian attacks on our democracy, we must all call on Congress to pass sanctions that punish Moscow, deter it from future interference and hold Trump accountable.

 

Friend,

Since President Trump can’t be trusted to protect the nation from Russian attacks on our democracy, we must all call on Congress to pass sanctions that punish Moscow, deter it from future interference and hold Trump accountable.

The Senate approved strong Russia sanctions and related safeguards with overwhelming bipartisan support. But at the White House’s urging, Republican leadership in the House of Representatives is delaying and attempting to weaken the bill.

We must increase pressure on House Republican leadership to move America beyond partisan politics on this issue and pass this legislation now!

Ask Speaker Paul Ryan and Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy to pass Russia sanctions now.


Rep. Paul Ryan
Speaker of the House
(202) 225-3031
Rep. Kevin McCarthy
Majority Leader
(202) 225-2915

Talking Points to Consider

We’ve drafted some easy-to-use talking points for you to use when calling.

  • I urge you to pass the Senate’s new Russia sanctions bill immediately!
  • We must punish Russia for violating our sovereignty by interfering in our democracy in order to deter future attacks.
  • We must also ensure that President Trump can’t weaken Russian sanctions without Congressional review.
  • Do your job, Congressman. Remember that our ability to choose our own leaders is bigger than you or any party. This is not a partisan issue.
  • The longer you wait to act, the more vulnerable our country will be to foreign interference.
  • Pass new Russia sanctions. We will keep calling until you do!

Thanks for your support,
Mindy
