Protect The Right to Protest

The Trump administration has proposed new rules that would dramatically limit the right to demonstrate near the White House and on the National Mall. It's also proposing making people pay to protest. Such fees could have made the most important demonstrations in our nation's history – like Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech – too expensive to have ever happened.

The Senate will soon vote on whether to confirm Trump's nominee Raymond David Vela as director of the National Park Service, which manages these areas. Send a message to your senators now: Demand that Vela pledges to withdraw Trump's proposed rule. Our free speech rights are on the line.

ABOUT HONORIFIC TITLES

Many public officials use "web mail forms" that this system will send your message to, so you don't have to visit their web sites to communicate with them. The systems that some of these officials use requires that the honorific field be used (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc.).

Unfortunately, we do not have control of which honorific titles are presented as options. We must adhere to what the officials are using in order for your message to be delivered.
