Re: "Hoyer and Pelosi seem ready to play hardball to get a fair senate trial"! DO THIS NOW!

QUICK! Call Hoyer's office! (301) 474-0119 !

There’s someone answering the phone RIGHT NOW!

Tell her PLEASE to have him say YES to this!!!!!!

I called twice, a woman picked up the first time. The second time, it went to voicemail but there were extensions for four staffers, and I used one. Got in, again!

It's in a new Politico article:

I think they absolutely should hold the bill. Maybe they can get more people to testify or maybe they can get 45's taxes. There is so much evidence that is not in play because he is hiding it but the courts are working to bring those documents and people to the light of day. We need that.

agree it's a good one.

Calling Hoyer now! No one answering main line...trying an extension now! Shoot - having trouble getting through. VM full. No live person answering.

Darn!

and got a live person.

I referenced the Politico article and said it was a great idea, that they should hold up the articles until Senate assures a fair trial.

He thanked me for the call.
