I called Scott and Rubio's DC offices today.

(202) 224-5274
Scott's number went straight to voice mail.

(202) 224-3041
Rubio's number results in a phone tree where option 4 took me immediately to a staffer. I told him I had a message to convey to the Senator. The young man took my name, city, and zip code and told me to go ahead.

Scott's voice mail and Rubio's staffer got this message:

I expect to see a fair trial in the Senate complete with relevant witness testimony and any new documentary evidence that has come to light since the House impeachment hearings. Anything less would be ceding legislative power to the executive branch and completely undermine the Constitution of the United States. I ask the Senator to do his sworn duty as an impartial US Senator, not any perceived obligation as a Republican politician.


I feel like I just pissed into a windmill.

If MF45 was so innocent, why is the GOP putting on a middle-of-the-night secret trial?

Ernst and Grassley in Iowa

We ALL need to do this now.

Its our DUTY as citizens to let all of our senators know how we feel and that we as such will not stand for this trial to become a sham
