I didn't think I needed to write my D Senator who I knew would vote to convict

But, Senator Patty Murray spoke up last night about her time during the Capitol Insurrection.

I did write her and voiced my concern for her during that time. I also asked her to work tirelessly to change minds.
It is worth contacting your Dem Senator to support them and ask them to do more to change minds of the “aquitters”.

My letter:

Hello Senator Murray,

I wanted to say how awful I feel about your hours hiding from tRumps goons in your office. Americans were watching it all live but you lived it and it must have been terrible. Thank goodness your husband was by your side. I would have wanted that for myself had I been in your shoes.

Speak up more please because it will help. Plead with your stubborn colleagues who are voting to aquitt. Their minds need to be changed. Senators understand one another. Please do ALL YOU CAN TO CHANGE HEARTS AND MINDS!
You have the ability to talk to them and I ask you to tirelessly use your voice to change minds.

Thank you for your time!

Hello,

I write to thank you for your service and urge you to speak up, speak out, and speak to aquitting Senators.

Speak to them tirelessly because it could help and the stubborn Senators who already say they will aquitt should not sleep at all. They should be swamped by persons like yourself trying to sway them.

Those Senators will never in a million years hear me BUT they will give you an audience and you should try to reach them in ANY WAY POSSIBLE. Reach out as much as possible please to try to change minds!

Thank you for your time!
