My representative AND senators (all Democrats) absolutely refuse to respond to calls, messages....ANYTHING. It leaves me today feeling such a sense total abandonment by those we entrusted to at least TRY and hold the line. All completely absent. It really has felt awful today.

The ONLY Democrat who took a real, true stand for US, the people, on Tuesday evening? There was just a vote in the house about whether to censure him or not. 10 Democrats voted YES along with 2 who voted PRESENT.
Guess decorum over democracy.

My new one bla bla.
And all my senators and reps are Republican. And basically any responses I’ve gotten (if any) have been “don’t worry you’re wrong *pat pat* Make America Great Again!”
I oscillate between very discouraged and very mad.
My rep and senators are all dems. They don't pick up either.
"...(all Democrats)..."

Today just feels especially shitty b/c someone in Hakeem Jeffries office actually hung up on me. This, of course, after he was rude to me. To add insult to injury, I was asking about the streaming event tonight with Jeffries + DNC head -- he didn't even know it was happening.

I was abroad last month for a few weeks. I called every day even then.
Billionaire telling average people how to defend themselves from billionaires... fucking adorable!
Pay your succubus tax rich man.
Pay a real wage.
Billionaires prefer we beg them for charity.
Nevertheless, I feel when I reach out to them, repeatedly, there should be some responsibility from THEIR end to respond in some fashion. I mean, at least hold public town halls so I have the opportunity to address them. I voted for them. I pay their salaries.
Mine are PAUL TONKO ( amazing)
Schumer and Gillibrand
Call your Rep and two Senators, leave a short message with the person answering the phone about your issue. Be sure to give your name and zip code. They'll write it down and pass it along.
Repeat it every morning at the same time.
Don't expect a call back.
And it’s the democrats’ fault? Ok. That makes sense.
I am so awed and envious that you have elected officials who are responsive in any way to you. Really, I am so very envious.
