Calls to Action
MWEG calls to action help you quickly and easily write and send letters to your legislators on the issues you care most about. Each call to action here falls under one of our areas of advocacy — family health and well-being, the environment, immigration, or advancing democracy.
For each call to action, check out the background information we've provided on the issue, then use our prompts and templates to help you compose your letter. Our letter-writing tool will deliver your message directly to your elected officials!

Advancing Democracy
Support the Building Civic Bridges Act
The Building Civic Bridges Act was reintroduced in the House of Representatives on July 10th. This bill, which has broad bipartisan support, establishes an Office of Civic Bridgebuilding to research civic bridge building and social cohesion and support bridge-building initiatives throughout the nation.
Environment
We don't have any official calls to action in this area right now, but you can get involved in our environment efforts on MWEG Central or use our customizable call to action to write a letter on an issue important to you.
Family Health & Well-Being
Support SNAP and Head Start
As the federal government shutdown continues with no clear end in sight, tens of millions of Americans are facing the devastating loss of federal food and nutrition benefits. Head Start, a program that provides early education, child care, and nutrition services for tens of thousands of children, is facing massive cuts that will shut down programs that serve more than 65,000 children.
Contact Your Members of Congress to Support PEPFAR
The President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) has been a cornerstone of U.S. global health policy since it was established under the Bush administration in 2003. It is one of the most successful and bipartisan foreign aid programs in U.S. history — supported across 10 Congresses and four presidential administrations.
Immigration
We don't have any official calls to action in this area right now, but you can get involved in our immigration efforts on MWEG Central or use our customizable call to action to write a letter on an issue important to you.
