Hey, @AOC + @RepKatieHill – I found @SenateMajLdr! He finally came to the Senate Floor to call a vote... not to help people, but to hurt people... by stripping health care from women across America. #WheresMitch

Well done, Senator!

I will always value Sen. Merkley for really bringing attention to family separation at the border. Social media badasses!

2. Yes! We in Oregon are very fortunate to have TWO great senators. Sometimes I call their

offices just to say how much I appreciate them. I always agree with what they do.

4. Lucky you!

I'm in WA and Dr. Kim Schrier is my new MOC!

👍👍

3. I'm not sure those children/families would have had the same amount of attention...

without him going down to that sadly refurbished Walmart and posting it live on Facebook.

That was a pivotal moment, imo.

5. No one would have known ANYthing, blue. Those camps are a black hole from which no light or

hope escapes

I wrote a quick post last night wondering why we haven’t heard from any whistle-blowing (hate that expression) ex-workers from the camps...there was a young man ages ago who spoke up, but I’ve seen no one since him....I wonder if workers are threatened to keep quiet about their experiences or else...

Also thought tonight, hey, what if ALL our Congress people headed to the camps and just sat down and stayed outside of them, hour after hour, day after day...surely that would wrench some doors open, or - ? They wouldn’t even have to speak or hold signs - just be there. Endlessly.

OPEN THE GODDAMN DOORS

Sorry to ramble, YES, Rep. Merkley changed everything, I am a huge fan!!
