Weekly Update: Member Meeting, and Preparing for Our Next Issue

By November 7, 2025CommonSense News

National Members Meeting Recap

On Wednesday, 11/5, we held a national members meeting to discuss what’s on the horizon for CommonSense American. 125 CSA members joined us for a productive conversation about how we can make a big impact once our next issue brief is chosen and ready for CommonSense Americans to respond to. One of the most impactful ways to make an extra difference is joining us for Congressional briefings with offices from your state! If you’re interested in joining us for these meetings once we have results for our next issue, please email Mary Tanner, our Ambassador Program Director: mary@commonsenseamerican.org. We are excited to make a difference in Congress standing shoulder-to-shoulder with our members!

Help Select Our 2025 Issue

As we continue refining our Common Sense American research focus, your input remains invaluable. We welcome your perspectives on potential topics to help us identify the issue that will most effectively serve our members. The 2025 Rate-The-Issues (RTI) survey is now live, spotlighting the most promising opportunities for bipartisan collaboration, shaped by in-depth conversations with congressional offices from both sides of the aisle. Each issue in the survey reflects policy proposals that leaders believe can earn broad, cross-party support.

We are actively engaging with congressional offices to share our members’ views and select a priority issue with strong bipartisan momentum for this year’s work. Our proven track record, and the growing interest from these offices makes it clearer than ever that participating as a Common Sense American is one of the most impactful ways to shape real legislative progress.
