Look for protests to join. Call email call your reps. There's got to be a way to sue, but i don't know anything about that route.
If all fails there's a funny amendment in the constitution literally for a situation exactly like this.
A lot of what is being done right now violates the Constituent. That doesn't matter unless someone enforces it, which is not happening. Congress should be responding, but the Republican majority are either in favor of the takeover or too afraid to oppose it. The courts have been helping some, but the Supreme Court (and many of the lower courts) have been taken over by people who support this.
Unless some congressional Republicans grow a conscience or a spine, there isn't anyone at the federal level who will defend the Constitution.
I think you missed which constitutional amendment they were referring to
My reps voicemails are completely full and they don’t reply to email. It’s a farce.
Send a letter, while the USPS is still around.
Send a postcard. A lot more letters just get tossed instead of opened because of security risks.
