I wonder. Do any elected Democratic Congressionals Read DU?

Do they see and hear the enormous sense of urgency being expressed here today?

Does anyone with a meaningful role get the enormity of the very real risk we now face? The urgency of need for effective action? The angst so many of us currently feel? Do they get it?

First they are busy with legislative tasks in DC and when not at that job,
busy raising funds for the next election.

What to do about it is a separate question, with no obvious answer.
