Trump's shutdown must be brought to an end now!
Of all the liberties granted, guaranteed and given to us by the First Amendment, the most underrated and the most rarely used, is the one that gives us the right to complain to our elected officials, or as the Founding fathers tactfully put it - the right to, “petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Americans' pick up your cell phones, call your elected representatives and tell them, "they don't need Trump to bring this federal shutdown to an end."

Why is this important?
We know of freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of assembly, because they are familiar, better legislated, and as always - excellently litigated than our right to, “petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Federal workers, small businesses, park and border agents are not only feeling the pain of Trump’s shutdown - the longest federal shutdown in American history, our food and drug administration department can no longer inspect domestically produced meat, poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables.
And neither can the USDA and the department of health, ensure the safety of foods and drugs coming into American homes because of Trump’s refusal to end this shutdown.
We’ve had stories of military families struggling with mortgage, and federal workers not getting paid for now and the nearest future. Now imagine what will happen when food stamps runs out for ordinary Americans.
This federal government shutdown by Trump must be brought to an end before it get worse!
And the best you can do as an American, at this stage, is to show up in person, or pick up your cell phone and call your congressional representatives. Tell them, “the Congress doesn't need Trump to bring this shutdown to an end.” Tell them, “they, as elected representatives in the house, have the power to override Trump’s presidential veto, open the government, and take control of government spending, budget, expenses and allocations for the military.”
My name is Abbey Laurel-Smith, I am in the race for NYC Public Advocate, February 26th, 2019. I am campaigning as the voice and the ears of the people. As an underdog, my chances are slim. But you can help me reach the threshold required for this office by midnight this coming Monday, the 12th of January, and we could all have a good shot at winning.
