Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office.
If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Schiff and Padilla, the two senators from California, represent 12% of the US population. It's beyond unacceptable that we can't leave voicemails with them whenever we want.
Just FYI, the offices for Schiff and Padilla won't allow voicemail right now

Cannot express enough appreciation for the teams *flying through a hurricane* while not being paid.
NOAA hurricane hunters flying aboard a P-3 Orion aircraft ("Kermit") are monitoring Hurricane Melissa as most aircraft steer clear. The storm poses a catastrophic threat to Jamaica and Haiti.
The crew are among the many federal workers working without pay during the US government shutdown.

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.
Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

Rest in Power Miss Major.
I was so fortunate to profile Miss Major for SF Weekly.
From her political education from the leaders of the Attica prison uprising and getting knocked out by a cop at Stonewall to performing in the Jewel Box Revue and founding TGIJP, she led an extraordinary life.

MVP is about 2 secs from telling these folks something they aren’t prepared to hear. I highly suggest they leave her Da F. Alone.

No one was suckered by Fetterman. Folks wanted a white guy in office, despite the Black guy saying he was shady af. So they voted accordingly…and here we all are.
Next time, listen to Black people (though I know y’all won’t).

Maria Bartiromo tries to reassure Fetterman: "You know, senator, what you just said, it's really shamefully on your colleagues. You feeling isolated -- that is absolutely outrageous. You are a breath of fresh air. I know our viewers are grateful."

Do not assume that everything they set out to do is inevitable. They have been successfully fought on multiple fronts, from courtroom wins that have actually stuck to city and state governments that haven't backed down, to activists in the streets organizing against their violence.
