The tremendous outpouring of support (300 million TikTok likes) for Senator Booker’s demonstration highlights the need for new more dynamic leadership of the Senate’s opposition party.
I just came across this article! Thank you Senator gallego for standing against Trump's unqualified nominations and demanding a proper workforce for the VA
I am right there with you in praising Senator Booker! I'm trying to find any news as to whether you like Senator Kelly participated in today's historic event.
Regardless I encourage you and all of the Democratic senators to follow this example!
Kelly participated- you can see it on Kelly's FB page. Gallego, as far as I can tell, was invisible until after it was over (and even then, Gallego is doing a TERRIBLE job publicizing and latching on to also act for us.
It seems so, however I did come across this article.
He could, in theory, make food trouble here like Booker did.
I'm calling him to encourage he do so.
I hope so! Gallego tends to be louder for Veteran/military support, and I'd love if he could make heavy national news coverage here. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely! In fact, this might be a good strategy in general. Have every Senator harp on an issue they're passionate about. If Gallego gets loud and stays loud about Veteran/Military support while Booker is staying loud about Social Security, and Warren on the CFPB, we could Flood The Zone.
Since Cory just gave his 25 Hour Campaign Speech for Re~election to the Senate in 2026 and possibly for a run at POTUS in 2028, watch his AIPAC Donations rise dramatically, happened when Adam Schiff announced he was running for Senator of CA. #FightZionism
Not to take away from Senator Booker, he was awesome. But thump is cutting services and applying tariffs to build a coffer to wage war against Canada, Greenland, Panama, and others. The rich always get richer during war and thump has a lot of legal bills to pay.
Senate Democrats immediately caved once Senator Booker yielded the floor by agreeing to another unanimous consent agreement to confirm another Trump nominee.
Take Senator Booker's words and put them into action.
There was no point in further symbolic delay. The consent was only to let it go to the vote. Senate Dems then voted correctly and were unified on this one; it just won't ever be enough until we flip a few seats, or a few R's grow a spine and fix their hearts.
YOUR ARIZONA CONSTITUENTS WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SEE YOU DO SIMILAR ACTION AGAINST THIS REGIME! Start fighting for us or we will make you a one term senator!
April 5th protests will happen around the country against Trump and Musk destroying crucial programs and trying to end our rights and freedoms.

I continue to regret donating to your campaign and voting for you. The Laken-Riley Act was the harbinger of "no due process," and you proudly co-sponsored it. Acknowledge your error and make amends by actually showing up and speaking out on April 5th.
Maybe a last sentence like, "The people of Arizona and the whole country will be hearing from me soon as well!" Just... something to indicate that you're not just going to keep watching?
Gallego, as a constituent I've been calling anc BEGGING you to actually DO SOMETHING to help stop this insanity. Please, at least publicize and ATTEND the national protests on April 5! You need to be SEEN, HEARD, LOUD, AND ACTIVE. we do not see this from you.

Don’t try to piggy back yourself onto this if you aren’t going to fight for the people who elected you.
Ruben Sinema stop cosplaying as a senator. We elected you to do your job, not post April Fools Jokes.
Signed an AZ Voter who called and persuaded friends and acquaintances to vote for you.
Regardless I encourage you and all of the Democratic senators to follow this example!
He could, in theory, make food trouble here like Booker did.
I'm calling him to encourage he do so.
Corey Booker = A
Ruben Gallego = F
You got a pass on account of Kyrsten Sinema, but you have to earn the next one. Time to get to work!

Will you do that?
It indicates a failing or lack of faith in your ability to Represent when Arizonans send letters 2000 miles
Who’s on deck for next week?
Do it every week until the midterms!

I'm a 67 year old 1st time protester. I call and write ALL of the senators. The GOP can stop this. We only need 4 of them to change course.
