Call to Action: Letters to editors to refocus on what Repubs in Congress are doing.

10. The two prongs I'm shifting focus to to are:

1) Letters to media (and encouraging others) to refocus on Congress.

Bringing attention to what the House republicans are doing (and state house republicans), and shifting the "frame" as much as possible to excoriate Republicans in general for destroying crucial protections, etc., is important because we need to take down the Repubs for their bad actions. DT may be destroyed, or self-destruct, but if what the Repubs are up to goes under the radar, everyone will breathe a big sigh of relief when DT is gone, and support for Repubs in general will remain untouched.

2) Lobbying Senators to block legislation and SCOTUS nominee (Gorsuch and any future).

Right now, I'm limiting focus to pushing Senators to commit to filibuster Gorsuch (and finding groups that are working on this). Trump needs to put "his guy" on the court to rubber stamp Repub attempts to invoke freedom of religion for corporations to promote institutional discrimination (among other unconstitutional things they are pushing down our throats -- like cutting off funds to sanctuary cities).

Lobbying to Impeach DT nust be on the list, but I'm holding off on that until there is a "line in the sand" high crime (doesn't have to be as "high" a high crime as Bush's torture, but I think the grounds need to be more compelling than what we have so far.)
