However, some reports indicate Senators want to recess as early as December 7th....Over 45 of President Trump’s judicial nominees will not be confirmed in 2018 if the Senate leaves early for recess on December 7.....Please call your Senators and ask them to confirm the President's nominees" (Heritage Action for America, 11/20/18 email)

Call the White House at 202-456-1414: “I ask the president to veto any final government funding bill that does not explicitly defund Planned Parenthood before the new Congress takes over in January.” Post and tweet at President Trump with a message similar to this: “Please keep your campaign promise, @realDonaldTrump, and defund Planned Parenthood NOW.” (cf., LiveAction email, 12/4/18).  Urge President Trump to Veto Legislation that Weakens Pro-Life Policy (March for Life Action, 11/15/18)
