Call Your House Rep about the provision in the CR that would give Lindsay Graham money for being a seditionist weasel.
“I’m calling to demand that the Congressmember support H.R. 6019 to repeal the provision in the recent spending bill that allows senators to sue the US government for investigating their phone records. Giving a handful of senators an unfair advantage at the expense of taxpayers is unacceptable and should never have been a part of the legislation. “ Find Your Representative | house.gov
