I only called about one thing today, our constitutional crisis.
That sounds so melodramatic (and I always feel so ineffective), but when an executive ignores the courts and arrogates to itself the ability to control spending (which is Congress’s prerogative), what is that? There are supposed to be three co-equal branches of government, but they are trying to cut out two of them.
In 1933, legislators in Germany *voted* to give Adolf Hitler supreme power. How does history regard them now? How will history regard our own representatives in the future?
One would think that politics requires courage.

(Also, I just emailed my Representative about town halls, but that wasn’t a phone call.)
