If you live in the district of one of the people who voted Yea on this bill, and if you think granting wholesale immunity to corporations based solely on the President's say-so is a lousy idea, you might consider seeing if your Representative has any opposition in a primary and voting/funding the opposing candidate.
Here's a sample of the mindset of people voting for this:
