good suggestions for concerned people. thanks for putting it that way. I think that is a good message for all sides in this heated debate. I think i will add that contacting your rep NOW and just saying you don't want cut to extend into federal land transfers and what every else "insert your issue here". I think doing it ahead of time and not waiting until something happens is good with the pace of things.
Some good points on these last few posts. The only thing I would add is to expand your media sources on this topic, if you’re someone who has insulated themselves in only conservative media (not saying that you specifically have done that, just that it’s something people can do). Conservative media is now effectively the mouthpiece of the government, in the same way that liberal media was under Biden. You won’t hear about the bad stuff from them.

Can’t they all just learn to code?
are we gonna go the meme thread route? I am here for it if we are.
