On Thursday, the House of Representatives voted to approve a budget that mandates cuts to your pay and retirement. Every AFGE member and every federal employee will be impacted by these cuts if we do not act now.
We have one last chance to stop the House’s budget from becoming law - we must call every member of Congress and tell them to vote no on any budget that cuts federal employee wages and retirement benefits.
When someone answers the phone, simply tell the staffer that you are a voter in the District, you are a federal employee and that you do not deserve cuts to your pay or your hard-earned retirement.
Then call the number back. You should make three calls: one to each DC office of your two Senators, and one to the DC office of your House Representative.

Do not use your government email address or government phone in contacting your Member of Congress.
