Hi, my name is ______ and I live in ______. I'm calling to urge (Member Name) to take quick action to stop the attacks on Medicaid and Planned Parenthood. [IF POSSIBLE, TELL YOUR STORY!]: Planned Parenthood and/or Medicaid is important to me / impacts me because ______________________. Cutting funding to Medicaid and blocking patients from care at Planned Parenthood is chaotic, cruel and dangerous and will directly affect low-income communities needing affordable health care. Congress must defend our ability to access health care, vote no on Medicaid cuts, and protect access to care at Planned Parenthood. [OPTIONAL] My contact info is ____.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:s3a4q3xorciedsggvdbkwqi7/bafkreie72npvxnaigsqcb7rs7vm2or5qa4zwduzpq2m4ozcu7aeytbo534)
![It's not ALL you can do, honestly. I gotta text [friend] actually because he and [his wife] were planning to protest tomorrow and I wanted to go but not alone. So I'll go if they do. But like, by being informed you can do what I do and call elected officials and fight back. A study was done that found that if just 3.5% of the population engages in nonviolent resistance, it works every time. So I'm fighting. I actually find it hurtful that you choose willful ignorance rather than fighting for and with your only child. THAT'S what's really taking a toll on my mental health. But I respect your right to do so. I know you're finally happy in a relationship so I don't necessarily blame you for wanting to mess that up. And I'm not giving you an ultimatum, either. I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed. And I'm worried that by believing that Trump will hold to his promises that you're still vulnerable to narcissistic manipulation.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:s3a4q3xorciedsggvdbkwqi7/bafkreibpzu7vshziokgp2hohjyu2wg3xvceucfk5om35ikdizxgbvixdom)
![Google has gone to lengths to prevent this process, discouraging publications from using the term 'googling' in reference to Web searches. In 2006, both the Oxford English Dictionary[24] and the Merriam Webster Collegiate Dictionary[25] struck a balance between acknowledging widespread use of the verb coinage and preserving the particular search engine's association with the coinage, defining google (all lower case, with -le ending) as a verb meaning "use the Google search engine to obtain information on the Internet". The Swedish Language Council received a complaint from Google for its inclusion of ogooglebar (meaning 'ungoogleable') on its list of new Swedish words from 2012. The Language Council chose to remove the word to avoid a legal process, but in return wrote that "[w]e decide together which words should be and how they are defined, used and spelled".[26]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:s3a4q3xorciedsggvdbkwqi7/bafkreieppmk53lwk2fhjmodxtqbiecqb7clms2c3n4nnpbnber4uero6su)
