Challenging the architect of the shut down.

Remember that time Mark Meadows rallied the TEA Party and shut down the federal government in the middle of tourist season, costing his district $16,000,000? He is representing my part of NC and that bothers me.

This guy is working to replace him: https://www.facebook.com/tomhillfor.congress?fref=ts

If you know anyone that could help get rid of Meadows and substitute some competence in government that would be sweet.

(If it's inappropriate to use threds to promote particular candidates this way and admins want to remove this thread, no hard feelings. my bad).
