If your Dem Senator asked what your top priority was

[BigmanPigman]

which would you choose? Feinstein sent me a gmail and I was asked to pick one out of 5 choices that I feel is the most important for her to focus on as my rep. The choices were...
Climate Change
DACA and immigration
Russia investigation
Economy
Health Care

[leftstreet]

1. What did you choose?

[BigmanPigman]

8. I won't say yet.

I don't want to influence anyone's opinion.

[leftstreet]

9. Oh, okay

That makes sense

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. The Russia investigation.

We can't do the other things until we get rid of the Trump administration.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

29. + 1 million

[Squinch]

4. DACA. Stop torturing those people. Then Russia.

But when we get back into power, the first priority should be to get rid of citizens united. If we do that, we can do all the other things on that list at our leisure.

[dhol82]

11. Citizens United is such an evil in this land

It has been the genesis of too many disgusting machinations of the right wing!
It needs to have its pathetic little black heart ripped out and thrown on the funeral pyre of justice.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

31. So true !!! NRA's extravagant contributions and hold on GOP sickening. nt

[dhol82]

5. I would say Russia

We can’t get on with our government if we don’t know that the election was manipulated.

[Yonnie3]

6. I want progress on all not just one.

They are all important and what about gun control legislation?

I'd have real trouble picking just one.

I can't decide.

[zentrum]

7. I think the Economy

….focus is what will get Dems back in power.
The pocket book.

Once back in control they can address Climate, DACA and Health Care.

[rainy]

10. Id say get money out of politics and have public

funded very short campaigns. Our process is insane.

[kacekwl]

37. My choice exactly.

Without the bribes we could move on to all those other important topics.

[rainy]

38. Plus congressmen wouldnt be afraid

to vote their conscience afraid of losing donor money!

[Leighbythesea]

12. Russian

Investigation first.
Health care
Climate change
Immigration
Economy

& Im someone who would often put economy near the top. But everything else is under attack, and cant defend itself well. Capitalism is at least trying at all times for the economy.

[NickB79]

13. Climate change

Averting a mass extinction event ranks pretty high on my to-do list.

[mythology]

22. That would be my choice and reasoning as well

Followed by the economy, the Russia investigation, fixes to the ACA and then immigration.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

14. Russia investigation

As long as Republicans are in the majority, the other problems can't/won't be addressed. Continuing to focus on Russia's upending of our elections is the only thing that I can see having much chance of changing that.

[enough]

15. Climate change / environment protection. NT

[Liberal Jesus Freak]

16. ((sigh)) Whats a Democratic Senator?

I live in Kentucky...

[bdamomma]

21. oh geez

you have McConnell...... you have my sympathy....

[sinkingfeeling]

17. DACA and immigration.

[hatrack]

18. I'd put Russia up top, because w/o housecleaning, nothing else gets done . . .

Oh, forgot:
HAND-COUNTED PAPER BALLOTS IN EVERY PRECINCT IN AMERICA

Then:
Climate Breakdown
Constitutional Amendment to destroy Citzens United
Universal Health Care
Tax Hikes For the Rich (to pay for all of the above).

[bdamomma]

19. I would select

all of the above, all of those issues are high priority.

[Arazi]

20. Gerrymandering, voter suppression, Russian meddling

[Golden Raisin]

23. Election Integrity.

Without it we no longer have democracy and Trumps and complicit Republican Congresses are installed in power.

[beaglelover]

24. Healthcare

[MrsCoffee]

25. Russia investigation. Until we get rid of the traitors, the rest is a pipe dream.

[CatMor]

26. Healthcare

[Me.]

27. Getting Rid Of Comrade Trump

[mr_lebowski]

28. Regardless of what I really feel, I'm telling DiFi ... RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA!

"My Senator Diane Feinstein' as much as I've gave her a hard time over the years, right now this Cali native deep in Red State hell ... longs to write those words ... along with similar ones about Moonbeam and Kamala

[GulfCoast66]

30. Healthcare

Followed by:

Worker rights/living wage
Reinstate the original Voting Rights act
Climate

The rest will follow

The Russian thing not changing a thing. Do not hang your hopes on it.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

32. Actually kind of makes me think WTF ? really. Why don't YOU know what's

important? You should know it in your soul. Like Ted. You shouldn't have to ask people

[BigmanPigman]

33. Read my reply to the first post.

I responded to the gmail two days ago. I was curious what others on DUers are thinking. I had a tough time deciding but was only given one choice instead of "list them in order of preference" as I normally am asked by the DNC on their surveys.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

35. Yes, read. All good. I am just always on my frustration kick that

we are losing SO much opportunity to debunk all the things being said every day by GOP with no unified response. Only to get ridiculously flamed....like I am trashing Dems, which is farthest from the truth. Everyone can bury their head in the sand - and act like everything is great - meanwhile - more and more people are actually thinking FBI corrupt and Trump showing no signs of decline. It's an utter "duh" how people can think we are doing a great job messaging.

[Skittles]

34. right now, Russian interference trumps all

[ProudLib72]

36. I do NOT like this

These do not break down nicely into completely separate issues. People who hide laws to soften gun control in agriculture bills should know issues are intertwined. I should not blame DiFi herself, though. I blame the impression that the "average" voter is a single issue voter.

[Meowmee]

39. Secure Elections

And get rid of the fascist traitors who have taken over the gov with the help of millions of bat shit voters. We need paper ballots and monitored elections. I’ve already told them this many times. Until you do this you can’t do anything else. Then healthcare, DACA and so on.
