Deadline: MIDNIGHT
STJEPAN,
Trump is about to be sworn in as president. It's horrifying... and the bad news keeps coming It was reported yesterday that members of the Trump transition have been discussing the administrations plans for DEEP cuts to federal agencies and programs that will cripple the government's capabilities in some crucial areas.The Hill, which published an article about the cuts, says the proposed cuts "hew closely" to a budget blueprint published by the ultra right-wing Heritage Foundation, a think tank that has helped guide Trump's campaign and transition, and reports:"The Corporation for Public Broadcasting would be privatized, while the National Endowment for the Arts and National Endowment for the Humanities would be eliminated entirely."This is just a taste of what we're in for! And a Supreme Court nomination could come any day now! We just need 289 more new or renewed members before midnight to hit our 1,000-member goal and unlock the match!
More from The Hill report on the Trump budget blueprint:
"At the Department of Justice, the blueprint calls for eliminating the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, Violence Against Women Grants and the Legal Services Corporation and for reducing funding for its Civil Rights and its Environment and Natural Resources divisions.
"Under the State Department’s jurisdiction, funding for the Overseas Private Investment Corporation, the Paris Climate Change Agreement and the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change are candidates for elimination."
We're fighting Trump's cabinet worst picks, gearing up for an epic Supreme Court battle, and preparing to defend vulnerable communities and our constitutional rights from an unprecedented onslaught of attacks.
If we hit our goal, all donations up to the next $100,000 will be matched $1-for-$1, doubling your impact against the Trump agenda!
The fight against extremism needs you now more than ever. Thanks for all your amazing support.
Sincerely,
Kristen Smith, Membership Director
