Tell Congress to Support the Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act — Senate Bill 4297

April 29, 2026
Public schools provide the foundation for our communities, yet a federal voucher scheme currently siphons vital resources away from neighborhood classrooms to line the pockets of wealthy donors. Sens. Mark Kelly and Mazie Hirono recently introduced the Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act (S. 4297) to repeal this unaccountable program and return those dollars to our children. Your advocacy forces Congress to prioritize neighborhood schools, protects resources for teachers and counselors, and ensures that students with disabilities receive the specialized support they deserve.

Demand the DOJ Release Every Page of the Epstein Files — Epstein Files Transparency Act

April 20, 2026
The Department of Justice continues to withhold millions of pages of records despite the legally mandated deadline set by the Epstein Files Transparency Act. While the DOJ has redacted information to shield the powerful and well-connected — including 37 missing pages regarding allegations involving President Trump — it has simultaneously failed to protect the personal information of survivors. MomsRising is demanding that the DOJ comply with the law immediately to ensure no individual is above the law and survivors receive the transparency they deserve.
