Clark County Democrats’ Request to Washington’s Democrats in Congress Regarding Budgets and Continuing Resolutions
As budgets and continuing resolutions are considered, please vote no unless the following provisions are included.
-
- Save 20 million persons diagnosed with HIV by giving them their medicine back. The current administration took their life-saving medicine away, without which these 20 million human beings may die from complications related to AIDS. Restore this funding and all USAID funding.
- Make it clearly illegal for any member of the executive branch to interfere with the U.S. Marshals carrying out their sworn Constitutional obligation to enforce court orders and protect the checks and balances established by the United States Constitution.
- Re-affirm and strengthen the existing law that the executive branch cannot suspend elections.
- Establish a two-year moratorium on any changes to election laws, including the SAVE Act and any other attempts to change the rules of elections before the 2026 midterms.
- Protect Americans by requiring Congressional approval for executive actions that would hurt jobs and affordability, including tariffs, trade wars, pulling billions out of local economies, laying off thousands of local workers, and taking medical benefits away from working Americans.
