These are the Senators calling on Franken to resign.

[58Sunliner]

Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y.; Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii; Kamala Harris, D-Calif.; Claire McCaskill, D-Mo.; Maggie Hassan, D-N.H.; Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis.; Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich.; Maria Cantwell, D-Wash.; Heidi Heitkamp, D-N.D.; Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev.; Sen. Tammy Duckworth, D-Ill.; Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.; and Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., also issued statements or postings on social media Wednesday calling on Franken to step down.
The 14 women were joined by 14 male Senate Democrats: Schumer, Durbin, and Sens. Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, Sherrod Brown of Ohio, Joe Donnelly of Indiana, Michael Bennet of Colorado, Patrick Leahy of Vermont, Ed Markey of Massachusetts, Jeff Merkley of Oregon, Tom Carper of Delaware, Martin Heinrich of New Mexico, Gary Peters of Michigan, Tom Udall of New Mexico and Ron Wyden of Oregon.

Tom Perez, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, also called on Franken to resign.
Call, FB, Tweet. This is dangerous for us.

1. Fuck them all!

[ananda]

3. Double fuck them all!

Craven cowards.

[a kennedy]

14. Triple fuck them all.

[pnwmom]

20. The list includes 14/16 of Democratic women in the Senate. So I'm wondering

if they know more than we know.

[58Sunliner]

23. I don't care what they think they know. Senator Franken has the right to due process.

And so does the public and his constituents.

[dixiegrrrrl]

31. And to be fair, then, so does any accused who is not a dem, yes?

Wanna make sure we are not falling into the trap of hypocritical thinking.

[guillaumeb]

2. I will call my 2 Senators' offices tomorrow.

I will ask how they define due process, and why they are acting so hastily.

A large circular firing squad.

[RiverStone]

4. Have they demanded predator tRump resign!?

No moral equivalency here.

[msongs]

5. guilty til proven innocent, no right to face accusers, no due process. totally republican morals nt

[ecstatic]

6. They're giving a green light to trolls to accuse any democratic senator

True or false, we'll force them to step down. Not smart.

They still don't seem to understand that we're at war right now... fighting for our "democracy." Rethugs have literally come with their guns and we have plastic spoons.

[58Sunliner]

24. You wonder how this could escape them.

[marlakay]

7. I emailed my senator in Oregon

Told him we should have investigations not witch trials where you are guilty first.

[spooky3]

8. Text RESIST to 50409 to send messages to your Senators.

You’ll get replies from a bot who will walk you through steps.

[dlk]

9. Has Anyone Given a Substantial Reason Why? What Are We Missing?

This will only embolden Bannon and other GOP dirty tricksters. We need the due process system to have a chance to work. This is beginning to look like a panic attack.

[Willie Pep]

13. For sure.

This is why "they go low, we go high" doesn't work. Ratfucking and dirty tricks work unless you fight back. I am not saying that we should be as bad as the Republicans but you need to show spine sometimes. People respect strength and looking weak demoralizes voters.

[StevieM]

10. I wonder how many of them will call for Clarence Thomas to resign?

There was a hell of a lot more evidence of wrongdoing against him.

[Iliyah]

11. McTurtle as well while the RNC is sending monies to Moore

[fairfaxvadem]

12. I just dont get it...

So many threads, so posting here, thanks for this list.

I’ve read all the accusations and my outrage meter just isn’t budging much here on the Franken stories. But as some have said, if more stuff comes out beyond what we’ve been told, that may change.

[58Sunliner]

27. It's crazy. I just want him to have due process. We need our laws and processes to work for us.

Equitably. Otherwise it is chaos and anarchy.

[oasis]

15. "Fair weather Democrats" are not presidential material.

#I Stand With Al Franken.

[pnwmom]

22. Then you just eliminated 14/16 female Senators. n/t

[ProudLib72]

16. Just emailed my senator

Bennet. We will see what happens.

[Softail1]

17. and now even Warren!!!!

ughhhhh....grrrrrrrr....sucks!

[calimary]

30. Welcome to DU, Softail1!

By now, of course, Al Franken has announced his resignation. What a lousy day.

And I'm assuming Kirsten Gillibrand and the rest of 'em will be holding a Senator Roy Moore to the same standard?







Yeah, right... I already know the answer to that one. We all do.

[Kingofalldems]

32. Interesting post.

[blueinredohio]

18. Every man who voted for Franken to resign should ask himself if I'm accusing this man of

sexual harassment without proof when will it be my time in the barrel?

[Egnever]

21. And there it is

this is exactly what I have been saying. If we are being asked to take every woman's word without question we are headed to extreme blow back the first false accusation that comes to light.

Pretending Women never lie is fucking lunacy.

[NCTraveler]

19. K&R

This is what a spine looks like, imo.

[BannonsLiver]

25. Is there a list of those who have not called for him to resign?

[58Sunliner]

28. Did not see one, have not looked. Too busy, sorry.

[CTyankee]

33. My CT senators, Murphy and Blumenthal, are not on the list.

I love them both and am glad they represent my state.

[BannonsLiver]

34. If Murphy runs he's the early clubhouse leader for my 2020 primary vote.

I have eliminated everyone who called for Franken to step down.

[CTyankee]

35. He's a real up and coming guy, I think.

And only 44. Served in the House before running for Senate. I think he's one to keep an eye on.

[kimbutgar]

26. They arent calling for twitler you step down over even more egregious behavior

Spineless Democrats

[Generic Other]

29. Spineless is the word of the day

Franken is being swiftboated. Democrats who call for his resignation and not Trump's are spineless. The women making exaggerated claims against Franken are trivializing the experiences of real victims of sexual assault. And the GOP laughs while foisting Roy Moore on us.
