Dang, girl! Politically-active comedienne Amy Schumer showed us just how passionate she is about keeping President Donald Trump's cabinet nominees in check, by writing up some signs to show to the paparazzi as she left her sushi lunch in Beverly Hills. The signs oppose Trump's nominee for Secretary of Education, Betsy DeVos. Schumer implores fans to "Call Your Senator To Oppose" and offers US Capital's switchboard number to help activists get started.
In case you didn't know, Schumer comes from a political pedigree -- her cousin is New York Democrat, Senator Chuck Schumer. She's supported the Senator's policy on gun control and his fight against Trump's recent anti-immigration mandate. She also attended the Women's March in Washington, D.C. and spoke to the crowd there. She Tweeted, the day after Trump's inauguration, "Trump is about to bombard us with so many awful decisions. We need people alert and fighting for each other's rights. Call congress. Call the senate. We need to wake up and rise up together."
