Call the Senate: Urgent Puerto Rico Disaster Assistance


Call the Capitol Switchboard 202-224-3121 and ask for your Senators. You will need to call twice to reach each of your US Senators.

If you need help finding your Senators, you can ask the Capitol Switchboard attendant by telling them in what state you reside or use this link.

Once you are connected, ask to leave a time-sensitive message for your Senator.

"Thank you for taking my call. I live in your state, my name and address is______________. September 20th marks the three-year anniversary of Hurricanes Maria and Irma devastating Puerto Rico. I want the Senator to promote and vote for legislation that supports recovery and opportunity for the people of Puerto Rico by:

1.) Fully funding the recovery and rebuilding needs of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands

2.) Authorizing $1.236 billion to continue the Nutrition Assistance Program (NAP) program, and funding urgent pandemic-related food aid for schoolchildren in Puerto Rico

3.) Passing measures to increase pharmaceutical manufacturing jobs in Puerto Rico."
