Prepare for a Shutdown

That’s when the next government shutdown will happen, and we need to be ready. Trump showed he’ll leverage any pain he can: sudden disruption to travel, illegal firings and even starving children. The deal Democrats just made puts us in a stronger position in February, but it’ll take another shutdown to leverage that power, so our job is to prepare. The more ready we are, the less pressure Democrats will feel to negotiate, but we have messaging work to do too. Read on and then call your Senator and tell them we’ll be ready, so they better fight.
