Tell Congress Not to Cut Social Security

The House Ways and Means Committee is asking the public to weigh in on two new proposals to cut Social Security — raising the retirement age and changing the benefit formula. Raising the retirement age is simply a benefit cut. Changing the basic benefit formula would further cut benefits, putting the retirement security of millions of Americans at risk. Tell the committee you strongly object to cutting Social Security. 

Tell Congress to Pass the Fair Minimum Wage Act

The minimum wage is a women's issue. Two-thirds of minimum wage workers are women — and women are also about two-thirds of tipped workers, for whom the federal minimum cash wage is just $2.13 an hour. Women of color are even more disproportionately represented among minimum wage workers. Join individuals across the country in a petition telling Congress to raise the minimum wage. 

Tell Your Senators: Stand Up for Survivors of Military Sexual Assault

When an estimated 26,000 military members were sexually assaulted and victims of unwanted sexual contact last year — though only approximately 3,000 cases were reported — you know that the system is broken. But instead of fixing the problem, Senators on the Armed Services Committee stripped out a provision of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that is critical to addressing this problem. Tell your Senators we want a vote on a real solution — the Military Justice Improvement Act. 

Tell Lawmakers to End the Attacks on Reproductive Health Care

In the last two years we've experienced the highest number of state-level attacks on women's reproductive health ever. Opponents have tacked anti-abortion provisions onto unrelated bills and passed restrictions in special secret, last-minute sessions. They’ve mocked pro-choice protesters by handing them cookies. And they continue to tell women we don’t know what’s best when it comes to our own reproductive health care. Tell lawmakers on the state and federal level to end the attacks reproductive health care.
