Reject the SAVE Act. It's an unconstitutional poll tax at best and an authoritarian bid to end elections at the worst. Do not allow this fool in the White House to tarnish your own legacies more than he has done for the country as a whole.

Trump's antics are overwhelming the federal judiciary system. There are more lawsuits against the administration than I have ever heard of before.

First, I want the Senator to oppose cloture on the NDAA. This is for two reasons. First, I strongly oppose Section 1217, which would mandate an endless military and intelligence partnership with Israel that is contrary to our national interests.
