Just called Senator Klobuchar again at her metro office: 612-727-5220. Got right through to a staffer.

Things are moving quickly, but it looks like these Sen's especially need calls from *constituents* to vote NO on cloture:

Angus King (ME)
Amy Klobuchar (MN)
Jacky Rosen (NV)
Brian Schatz (HI)
Maggie Hassan (NH)
Jeanne Shaheen (NH)
Gary Peters (MI)

Capitol switchboard is 202-224-3121.

Omg I’m so jelly, I always get voicemail 😭

maggiek.bsky.social•4 days ago

OMG I want nothing more than to always get voicemail on these calls. I do not want to talk to a human. I just want to be tallied.

nharper.bsky.social•4 days ago

Nooo I want to pester a human and call them out on her bullshit and lies!

nharper.bsky.social•4 days ago

Like I usually don’t want to talk to a person, but when I get mad I wanna FIGHT

naomikritzer.bsky.social•4 days ago

So FYI Amy has a bunch of state offices, you could try Northern MN instead of Metro if you want:

I reached a rural staffer last week and all they could do was read a script full of BS and tell me to call the DC office

maggiek.bsky.social•4 days ago

This feels very un-Minnesotan of you. haha

nharper.bsky.social•4 days ago

I never really assimilated to that part of the culture 😬

sjberger.bsky.social•4 days ago

I called this morning and immediately got a staffer. I was really expecting a busy signal and sounded like a dummy.

maggiek.bsky.social•4 days ago

I keep telling myself you don't have to sound smart. You just have to be tally mark

hans1247.bsky.social•4 days ago

Me too! Wish legislators had polling platforms….not the the majority always has the best solution…but at least to be counted.

ohmary.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thank you, Naomi

rolliecoley.bsky.social•4 days ago

It’s hit or miss calling, I call a lot

jessford.bsky.social•4 days ago

Can’t get through on the local number. I’ll keep trying. Hopefully it’s because it’s jammed with calls

annekosseffjones.bsky.social•4 days ago

Haha, they're not answering at this number anymore (though you can leave a message). @naomikritzer.bsky.social's excellent argumentation must have scared them;).

jamesahk.bsky.social•4 days ago

Wish it mattered. Chucky has already made up his mind thinking he can still influence things if he capitulates or that any budget will constrain Trump. Never works with bullies.

NEVER EVER WORKS WITH BULLIES

I wonder if this means that Amy is not going to run again? There is enough Dem energy for a shut down across the whole MN Dem spectrum that it could be super difficult next election that not even business money will get over the finish line.

naomikritzer.bsky.social•4 days ago

She doesn't have to run again until 2030. So who even knows what her plan is.

anitanew.bsky.social•4 days ago

Agreed, but depending on how things roll out over the next days and weeks, she may become a pariah to the MN party. And since businesses can't cast votes for her regardless of how much money Western Hennepin County spends, she will be gone, essentially treated like a lame duck.

anaschak.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thank you! Living in DC I don’t have a voting member to call so I appreciate everyone doing what they can.

skol8084.bsky.social•4 days ago

I’ll try that number! I’ve left two messages at the D.C. number - thanks!!!

katieware.bsky.social•4 days ago

I just called and had to leave a message

evol.bsky.social•4 days ago

I've only been getting machines all week.

gertrudemiller.bsky.social•2 days ago

Well, at least Klobuchar listened, or had a come-to-Jesus moment, or something. Schumer, Gillebrand et al are just a mess.

therealjoro.bsky.social•4 days ago

If she votes yes does anyone wanna get a picket of her office going? I've got nothing better to do this weekend

paulference.bsky.social•4 days ago

I went with calling my Rep as well to ask her to pressure Klob.

will.oosterman.co•4 days ago

What did they say? Is she a no on the CR?

naomikritzer.bsky.social•4 days ago

So far as I know, she still hasn't made a statement one way or the other.

will.oosterman.co•4 days ago

Here's hoping. The cowardice in standing up to fascism is pretty stunning so I hope she sees the light.

mnehlsta.bsky.social•4 days ago

Called and got voicemail, left a very pointed demand from her constituent!

nathanpk.com•4 days ago

Voicemail again! I’m not yelling but let’s just say my tone lacks deference

pnutsmama.bsky.social•4 days ago

thank you!

tvanlan.bsky.social•4 days ago

Tell her to listen to Nancy Pelosi - she’s urging Dems to “listen to the women” and vote NO.

daylanne-english.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thank you for this. I just called and had to leave a message

wentrogue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Same.

maggieeliot.bsky.social•4 days ago

Just called and left a message. Thanks for posting this

plumber4america.bsky.social•4 days ago

@amyklobuchar.com DC number wasn't working for me. Rochester office allows voicemail but cuts off quicker than it should. 507-288-5321. VOTE NO ON THE CR & CLOTURE. @klobuchar.senate.gov

sarahgollust.bsky.social•4 days ago

Both DC number and metro number are not even dialing for me now!

juiceti.me•4 days ago

Same. Having trouble getting through.

dskamper.bsky.social•4 days ago

Same with me. I called Rep. Morrison and the Gov's office to ask them to pass on the message.

marshviper.bsky.social•4 days ago

What??? No way, they answered the phone???

brandow.bsky.social•4 days ago

What did the staffer say?

naomikritzer.bsky.social•4 days ago

"Thank you, and I will pass your thoughts along to the Senator." I asked yesterday if she would commit to voting no. Today I just called and said what I wanted her to do (vote no on cloture).

brandow.bsky.social•4 days ago

I got the answering machine at both the DC and Mpls office. Glad to hear they’re at least answering, not sure they were.

lukewanderer.bsky.social•4 days ago

Immediately connected to staffer when I called @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social to 1) thank for "no" vote and 2) urge her to reach out to colleague @klobuchar.senate.gov @amyklobuchar.com to do the same
