1 | Trump Cabinet Confirmations Blockade created and managed by Indivisible Washington State (formerly Pantsuit Washington State Chapter) | |||||||||||
2 | The hearings for the Trump cabinent nominees begin the week of 1/9/17. By scheduling multiple confirmation hearings, a budget 'vote-o-rama', and the first Trump press conference since the election all on the same day (Wednesday 1/11/17), the Senate GOP is working to prevent any one nominee from dominating a news cycle and creating enough public outcry to block confirmations. Don't let them succeed. In addition, in the rush to get nominees into hearings it was revealed by the Office of Government Ethics that not all of the nominees have completed the background and ethical review process. This is an absolute must to ensure Senators hearing testimony are able to do so having full information on the nominee's political/financial entanglements and confirmation from the OGE that this nominee has passed being vetted for potential ethical conflicts. Please review the nominations spreadsheet and contact Senators today, and as often as possible, throughout the hearings to let them know your concerns regarding the potential confirmation of these cabinet choices. There have already been effects from the calls with several hearings moved or rescheduled - your voice, your calls, and your participation matter! USE THE TRUMP CABINET NOMINATIONS TAB ^^ ABOVE ^^ TO SEE THE CURRENT SCHEDULE OF HEARINGS, WHO TO CONTACT, PHONE #S, AND SCRIPTS Nominee listings are color coded to highlight those of most concern - see key below.

4 | 9:30 AM (hearings to continue on Wednesday 1/11/17) | Confirmed | Attorney General | Jeff Sessions | Alabama Republican Congressman | He has a record of racism, believes immigrants create "cultural problems", has spent his career opposing LGBTQ rights, has said nonconsensual groping is not sexual assault, opposed legislation that would ban the inhumane treatment of detainees, does not believe climate change is an issue, is opposed to legalization of marijuana when it has already been passed by the will of the voters in many states, and has criticized legislation that would help children with disabilities get better education, Voted against Violence Against Women Act 3x | Yes - 12/23/16 | Senate Judiciary | https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/about/members | Blumenthal, Richard | D | CT | 202.224.2823 | Short one: I am calling to strongly oppose Jeff Sessions for our next Attorney General. His record is clear that he will support racist, sexist, anti-LGBTQ, and anti-immigrant policies while suppressing climate change issues or human rights of detainees and other citizens. I ask you to vote against Mr. Sessions moving forward in this position for the health and safety of all Americans. We can do and deserve better. I will be watching the vote closely. Long one: I am calling to strongly oppose Jeff Sessions' potential appointment as Attorney General. Having been on record numerous times supporting racism, to the point of failing to be appointed a federal judge, Senator Sessions has shown he will not fight for all Americans with his stances against immigrants, LGBTQ, and women, going as far as saying nonconsensual groping is not sexual assault and failure to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act. In addition, he does not understand or recognize the catastrophic consequences of climate change and denies it is an issue which could lead to further harm for our citizens and our planet, impacting the poor most of all. Finally, and perhaps of most concern for an Attorney General, is his support civil forfeiture, which lets the government take everything from a person without due process, reversing our basic freedom of due process which assures us of being innocent until proven guilty. For all these reasons, and more, I ask you to vote against Mr. Sessions moving forward in this position for the health and safety of all Americans. We can do and deserve better. I will be watching the vote closely. ------------- Check out this one too: | @SenBlumenthal | Sessions is racist, anti-immigrant, sexist, & anti-LGBTQ.

23 | 3:30 PM | Confirmed | Homeland Security | General John Kelly | Retired U.S. Marine general and former head of the U.S. Southern Command, which oversees U.S. military operations in Central and South America, including Guantanamo Bay | he wants to end political correctness in national security policy | Yes - 1/9/17 | Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs | https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/about | Baldwin, Tammy | D | WI | 202.224.5653 | Short one: I urge you to vote no against General Kelly. His demonstrated lack of concerns for the human and civil rights of prisoners who have been held and interrogated using torture is extremely worrisome. He supports a wall on the southern border despite the fact that it would divert needed funds from other security measures and seriously harm foreign relations. His status as a General threatens the constitutional principle of civilian control of the military. Oppose General Kelly and insist on an alternate nominee. I will be watching the vote very closely. Long one: I am calling to express deep concern over the nomination of General John Kelly for Secretary of Homeland Security. While overseeing Guantanamo Bay Prison, General Kelly brushed off concerns raised by human rights organizations about the interrogation tactics being used at the prison, which have been shown to have been abusive and, at times, forms of torture. In addition, he would indebt the American people with the building of a wall along our southern border, which would divert needed funds from other more effective security measures and only further increase international anger towards the US. Finally, as one of three generals being nominated for top cabinet positions, his inclusion in the cabinet would threaten the founding constitutional principle of civillian control of the military. National strength and security should not come at the expense of our liberties and basic rights as humans and citizens. Please oppose General Kelly's appointment and demand an alternate nominee from the incoming administration. I will be watching the vote closely. | @SenatorBaldwin | #IllegalTorture & disregard for #HumanRights is no way to lead #NationalSecurity.

40 | am & pm | Confirmed | Secretary of State | Rex Tillerson | CEO of Exxon Mobil | Massive conflicts of interest, absolutely no public service or international diplomacy experience, has close ties to Russia and Putin, has called for an end to sanctions against Russia, is a climate change oppositionist, has refused to submit his tax returns to the Judiciary committee. Exxon gave money to members of foreign relations committee | Yes - 1/3/17 | Senate Foreign Relations | http://www.foreign.senate.gov/about/committee-membership | Barrasso, John | R | WY | 202.224.1724 | Short one: I urge you to oppose Rex Tillerson. A Secretary of State who has zero foreign relations or even public service experience is a completely inappropriate and dangerous choice. His opposition to global climate change would hurt foreign relations with countries who are making efforts to preserve our planet for the greater good. Tillerson's close ties to Russia are an extreme conflict of interest, particularly with the mounting evidence of Russian interference in our election. Rex Tillerson is a dangerous nominee choice. Oppose him strongly and continue to do until an alternative is offered. I'll be watching your stand on this very closely. Long one: I am calling to strongly oppose Rex Tillerson's nomination for Secretary of State. With absolutely no international diplomacy experience, we would be putting one of the most important jobs for national security and international relations, as well as 4th in line to the presidency, in the hands of someone who has never held a diplomatic position of any kind, has close ties with Russia and Putin, has failed to submit his tax returns to the Judiciary committee for review, and has a long list of conflicts of interest that could reasonably skew his judgement and decisions. In addition, one of our largest threats to security is the global warming crisis, of which Tillerson has tried to stop leading facts and science from prevailing in policy making, looking to dismantle environmental protections for the good of Exxon and not the people of the world or the world itself. Finally, the number of hearings scheduled for the same day along with the Senate "Vote-a-rama" does not offer the time for the serious consideration this appointment deserves. Please work to postpone this hearing to prevent an uninformed and hasty vote by the committee. For all these reasons, and more, I ask you to vote against Mr. Tillerson moving forward in this position for the health and safety of all Americans. | @SenJohnBarrasso | #NoExperience + #ConflictsOfInterest = threat to natl security, intl relations & planet.

While Labor Secretary under President Bush, Ms. Chao showed that she failed to uphold and support basic worker rights of ensuring minimum wage and overtime. She failed to negotiate a contract with the International Longshore and Warehouse Union. Her department mishandled 90 percent of the wage theft cases reported to them and failed to investigate a complaint of underage children working during school hours at a dangerous meat-packing plant. Additionally, as Transportation Secretary, it is unclear if Ms. Chao would be negotiating directly with her husband while trying to pass new agenda items through Congress, which is a sincere conflict of interest which should be thoroughly questioned. Finally, Chao's confirmation would have to be confirmed by the Senate, of which her husband, Mitch McConnell is majority leader and has not agreed to sit out her confirmation. Please question thoroughly her integrity to lead this office with honesty, transparency, ethical practice, and the good of the American people at the heart of all transportation activity. If she will continue as she has served before, a better choice should be demanded. I will be watching the vote closely. | @SenBlumenthal | #workerrightsviolations, #fairwagesfail, & #conflictofinterest = #Chao is poor choice for Sec of Trans. #DemandBetter #CabinetBlock | ||||||||||||||||

88 | 9:30 AM | Confirmed on 1/20/17 | Defense | Gen. James Mattis | Retired Marine Corps General | Potentially willing to strike across borders when tensions escalate - also appointment would mean the need to invoke an exception to a limitation against appointment of persons as Sec of Def within 7 years of relief from active duty | Yes - 1/5/17 | Armed Services | http://www.armed-services.senate.gov/ | Blumenthal, Richard | D | CT | 202.224.2823 | I'm calling to express deep concern over the nomination of General James Mattis for Secretary of Defense. I support the progress women have made in the military, especially in combat arms jobs. Gen. Mattis has made some problematic statements about women in combat units, suggesting that they are not suited for close ground combat or that they would be a sexual distraction to men. These claims have been proven, again and again, to be false. In the last 15 years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan women have proven themselves in combat. In fact, it was because the military recognized the operational need for having women in ground combat units that the ground combat exclusion policy banning women from combat units was lifted. I'm concerned that Gen. Mattis will attempt to roll back or freeze the progress women have made in joining combat units and I ask that you express your support for women in combat units to Gen. Mattis and that you strongly question him about his position on the issue during the confirmation hearings. Women have fought and died for this country and they deserve the equal right to compete with men for combat jobs. It is also important for our national security to recruit from the widest pool of talent, and not arbitrarily ban 50% of the population from combat jobs. I will be watching the confirmation hearings closely | @SenBlumenthal | Gen #Mattis has blocked women in the military & left service 4 yrs ago. #civilliancontrol matters. #CabinetBlock | ||||||||||||||||

116 | 10:00 AM | Confirmed | Secretary of State | Rex Tillerson | CEO of Exxon Mobil | Massive conflicts of interest, absolutely no public service or international diplomacy experience, has close ties to Russia and Putin, has called for an end to sanctions against Russia, is a climate change oppositionist, has refused to submit his tax returns to the Judiciary committee. Exxon gave money to members of foreign relations committee | Yes - 1/3/17 | Senate Foreign Relations | http://www.foreign.senate.gov/about/committee-membership | Barrasso, John | R | WY | 202.224.6441 | Short one: I urge you to oppose Rex Tillerson. A Secretary of State who has zero foreign relations or even public service experience is a completely inappropriate and dangerous choice. His opposition to global climate change would hurt foreign relations with countries who are making efforts to preserve our planet for the greater good. Tillerson's close ties to Russia are an extreme conflict of interest, particularly with the mounting evidence of Russian interference in our election. Rex Tillerson is a dangerous nominee choice. Oppose him strongly and continue to do until an alternative is offered. I'll be watching your stand on this very closely. Long one: I am calling to strongly oppose Rex Tillerson's nomination for Secretary of State. With absolutely no international diplomacy experience, we would be putting one of the most important jobs for national security and international relations, as well as 4th in line to the presidency, in the hands of someone who has never held a diplomatic position of any kind, has close ties with Russia and Putin, has failed to submit his tax returns to the Judiciary committee for review, and has a long list of conflicts of interest that could reasonably skew his judgement and decisions. In addition, one of our largest threats to security is the global warming crisis, of which Tillerson has tried to stop leading facts and science from prevailing in policy making, looking to dismantle environmental protections for the good of Exxon and not the people of the world or the world itself. Finally, the number of hearings scheduled for the same day along with the Senate "Vote-a-rama" does not offer the time for the serious consideration this appointment deserves. Please work to postpone this hearing to prevent an uninformed and hasty vote by the committee. For all these reasons, and more, I ask you to vote against Mr. Tillerson moving forward in this position for the health and safety of all Americans. | @SenJohnBarrasso | #NoExperience + #ConflictsOfInterest = threat to natl security, intl relations & planet.

Betsy DeVos has a long history of pushing policies that undermine the public school system, a system with which she is not personally experienced. Private school vouchers and for profit charter schools funnel needed money and support away from the students who need it most. Her past support of the very controversial forced conversion therapy is further proof that she does not have student's best interest at heart. Opposing her is a vote for the greater good. Please vote No. I will be watching the vote closely. Post-hearing script: My name is ___ and I am a resident of ____. I am calling to ask you to oppose Betsy DeVos for Secretary of Education. After yesterday's hearing it is clear our children's futures should not be left up to a top campaign contributor who has no experience in education, a complete lack of understanding of how public education or funding works, or would make teaching children with disabilities optional. In addition, she has not submitted her ethics agreement or disclosure of conflicts of interest. This is not a moment to vote along party lines - ensure your legacy shows you stood up to party politics when children's futures were on the line. The children of your state deserve better - vote no on Betsy DeVos. I will be watching the vote and will remember this in the next election. | @SenAlexander | #NoExperience in public ed, rec $ go to charters & pro conv therapy = #DeVos is destructive for our childrens' future. #CabinetBlock Post-hearing tweets: #DeVos hearing showed she is has no place leading Dept of Ed. #NoExperience w/ funding, no idea about current policies, & no disclosures. #Education shouldn't be run by a top campaign contributor but by someone with experience and knowledge.

As a billionaire private equity investor, Mr. Ross made his fortune through buying troubled companies, cutting workers' wages, eliminating retired miner's benefits, and laying people off. He has a history of running operations outside the US while cutting US jobs and his company ignored federal safety violations after which 12 miners died at the Sago coal mine. In addition, he rejects the proven science around climate change, which could encourage dangerous support of commerce practices that disregard their effects on the planet and future generations. Finally, he has a large list of conflicts of interest which have yet to undergo appropriate scrutiny ahead of the hearings. Please demand Mr. Ross answer in full about his financial ties and business conflicts ahead of holding a vote and demand a better choice to be the leader of American commerce for the next four years who will have the American people's, not their own, interest at heart.

I believe we should be expanding health care coverage for Americans, not making it more difficult to access and afford. Price wants to scale back Medicare and Medicaid, is out of touch with the realities of the challenges and needs for reproductive freedom and safety, and has financial conflicts of interest that would, potentially, skew his judgement. A better choice should be demanded for the person who will lead Health and Human Services to ensure our country has the best possible healthcare and service support for the needs for all humans, not just those in line with Rep Price's interest. I urge you to vote No on Price's appointment. Someone who will put profit over people should never serve in our government, let alone in one of our highest offices.

He has lead numerous charges against environmental legislation including trying to block an anti-smog bill that his state has the ability to implement, blocking power plant safeguards, and opposing the clean water act. He has objected to the EPA relying on reports from scientific bodies and has been openly critical of climate science. Scott Pruitt has worked with and received large contributions from the very companies he would be expected to police and his record clearly shows he will do nothing of the sort. It is our duty to maintain protections for a safe and healthy environment for our children and generations to come. Vote against Scott Pruitt and insist on an alternative who will uphold the EPA's goals. | @SenJohnBarrasso | An enemy of the environment should not be head of the #EPA. #ScottPruitt is a dangerous choice.

1 | Frequently Asked Questions | |
2 | ||
3 | Is it more effective to call some committee members to oppose each nomination? OR – to call our own Senators, regardless of what committees they are on? | Start with your reps, the voice of the constituent always has strong sway. Then, for nominations where your reps aren't on the committee, go for calling the chair, ranking member, and any moderate Republicans you are aware of. As these nominations impact the whole country, you are fully in your right to call everyone on the committee as someone this nominee will be serving and impacting. Here's a great list you can reference to see where committee members are currently sitting with their vote leanings for the different nominees: |

6 | How important is it to actually say the script vs. just saying I strongly oppose a nominee, becuase they’re really just taking a tally. Does it make a difference and how? | The script is intended as a helpful tool to give something to use if anyone doesn't want to try to speak to the nominees ad hoc. Everyone has different comfort levels with that. It is recommended you give what reasons are that you oppose the nominee, especially if you are calling your own reps or the committee chairs/ranking members, as that helps them know cause for concern if that gets spoken to during the hearings. If an aide or other person fielding the call somehow indicates all they want to know is support or opposition for a tally, then follow their lead, offer your answer, thank them for their time, and end the call. As we have learned over this election and afterwards, the aides are a powerful voice with the Members of Congress (MoC) and helping them succeed at what they are doing makes them more likely to speak up on our behalf. |

8 | Can I get a daily update from the sheet? | There isn't a daily update at this time, however several people have asked for it, so we are looking at ways we can help keep information flowing for people who are ready to take action and making it happen. For this sheet, know that we are updating it daily and we recommend checking back on it each day. |
