These are only some examples. It's a lot more involved than just this.
I would suggest picking one or two issues that you are very passionate about which have been ruled on recently because of Donald, and including them in why this is a horrific idea.

(It sure would be a shame if folks contacted the Sr Deputy Assistant Director of the Designation and Sentence Computation Center at the e-mail or phone no. included in doc in quoted post. You know, for clarification on the collusion.)

And while we're thinking about our friend jeff [at] amazon [dot] com (who gave that e-mail out himself on CBS This Morning, so he can't bitch about it being used exactly how he said: to tell him about problems at Amazon):

text:
If you choose to write a letter to your state Attorney General, you can follow this format:
(bulleted list)
* Say who you are. Say your name or the name of your group. Say where you live. If you want, you can say what your disability is.
* Say why you support Section 504 and its rules. Talk about why Section 504 is important to you. Section 504 and its rules make sure people with disabilities can be included in schools. Section 504 and its rules make sure people with disabilities can see their doctor.
* Include personal details. You can tell a personal story about why Section 504 matters to you. Some stories that might be helpful to include are:
-- How a 504 Plan helped you be included in school as a child or young adult. How a 504 Plan allows your child to participate in school.
-- How a reasonable accommodation helped you gain or maintain employment.
-- How your needs are met in a community integrated setting.
-- How you got an interpreter at a doctor’s appointment and were able to talk to your doctor.
* Say why Texas v. Becerra is bad. If the court agrees with the states bringing the lawsuit, people with disabilities will lose civil rights. These rights have protected people with disabilities for over 50 years.
* Tell your state Attorney General to drop out of the case [or that you support Section 504]. If you live in a state that is part of the lawsuit, tell your Attorney General to stop attacking Section 504 and pull out of the lawsuit. If you live in a state that is not part of the lawsuit, tell your Attorney General that you support Section 504 and its regulations.
* If you want, ask for a meeting. Say that you and your group would like to set up a meeting to talk about why Texas v. Becerra hurts people with disabilities.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:boxxkbm7ojq3fiweqykvbx6a/bafkreiffjv7tb2qhglacytulbulaoz5j3t6vclw2ehdvitmlvu6qnnmzzm)
