according to Kuntanaugh - even during National Security emergencies (as happened to Clinton in August '98).

Call and tell the senators that you agree with Feinstein. Call and keep CALLING until he is OUT of consideration.

Here is contact info. Call DC Offices and local ones too. RESIST...all the senators must know NO KAVANAUGH!
