Dear Speaker Pelosi.

If McConnell tries to ram an appointment thru before the inauguration, then start to remove federal funding from the state of KY. Start with discretionary funding.

ALL appropriations start in the House. Use it.

[Hoyt]

1. Not sure about that one, but I do understand the feeling. Despise that MFer.

[FBaggins]

2. Not how it works

Things start in the House... but must also pass the Senate and be signed by the President

[roamer65]

3. All appropriation legislation must start in or be approved by the House.

We control the House. Use it.


Time to play fucking HARDBALL.

[FBaggins]

4. So?

If they can’t get the senate to go along... nothing changes. Unless you’re going to shut everything down at the end of the cycle... which wouldn’t sell well

5. I agree with what you want to accomplish, put pressure on the turtle

But this would not do that. It would ensure that all of the courts were not funded. A bill that does not fund KY Courts would never see the light of day in the Senate

Better to cut off any and all federal funds to the Wife’s Family shipping Business

6. great way to come off as psychotically petty and put Yarmuth's seat in play

Unfortunately there is nothing constructive for the House to do, they have no role in this.

7. She may not be...

Willing or able to do such a thing. What she will do is make it a very painful move on his part. She'll draw political blood if need be.

[herding cats]

8. Yeah, sure.

This is how it works.

[Bayard]

9. I doubt that Speaker Pelosi is interested

In punishing the entire state of Kentucky just because we have a power-mad asshole for a Senator.

You want to help? Donate to Amy McGrath.

10. Money is better spent on the Harrison-Graham race in SC.
