Thanks Aliza, it's been brewing in me for a while, and after I lfet an epically long comment on a friend's Facebook post I realized I had to follow my own personal rule that a comment longer than three paragraphs needs to be its own post! :)
I'm doing all the same things you are. I see the results of these resistance actions in Arizona, where both of our D senators have gone to RURAL RED areas and held town halls for which they were thanked. Bernie and AOC also came here to big audiences. And I am writing on my Substack to remind people how things work.
Thank you for doing that, Francine. And that’s great to hear about your senators doing town halls too (typically town halls are a Representative thing, I’m not sure why…some holdover from the British system and considering the senate some above it all deliberative body while the house is more “for the people.”)
Thank you thank you thank you

I have adopted that strategy, too!
I'm such an influencer 😹
Ugh, typos! I think I've fixed them all now, but apologies to all that got this via email and just came over to tell me that I was sloppy 😹
