So you want to give Mitch McConnell a piece of your mind, but are not from KY.....

I thought you could only email your own senator or congressperson, however since McConnell is majority leader everyone can email him. So if you go to www.mcconnell.senate.gov...you can tell that weasel what you think of his Supreme Court blockage.

I did and have shared this elsewhere. Hope some of you will do the same.

I think I may just write him and tell him how I feel about his crooked, deceitful, cowardly ways.

Thanks for the post!

I think he probably has someone (an intern or some poor sap making minumum wage. or less) assigned to go through his email and delete any negative ones.

than the other lazy bums on the Hill, but they do track the number of positives and negatives, so it's worth it just to rattle his cage and give him an idea of the "will of the people".

Whether or not they will allow people not from their states to send their opinions.

I've run into both settings and was surprised that McConnell allowed people not from Kentucky to send him a comment. But I sent him my opinion shortly after his second obstructionist speech the other day.
