Called Hartzler's office

To voice my displeasure with any possible vote for Trumpcare. The response? "We don't have time for this call and everyone wants Obama care repealed. "

I stated the ACA has benefited me and I offered to leave my name, address and number if they were really attempting to speak with their constituents about positive and negative experiences. Their response? They hung up on me. No thank you, not needed, no acknowledgment of me speaking.

I can't stand Hartzler or her office.

I'm probably on a list after confronting her at a Homecoming parade in 2012.

I'd be showing up at her office with a few hundred of my closest friends. How dare an elected official (or their staff) treat a constituent that way??

Can you write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper?

And I'm chatting with our county Dem group as well.

Someone at a recent meeting said when she called the young man answering was shotty with her and didn't want to take her info. She's very soft voiced and mild mannered so it wasn't her.

Her office has a history.

She's out of Columbia and plans to campaign early and hard.

She referred to Vicky as Heartless Hartzler.
