Here’s a Senate Democrat you to put some pressure on:
When a group mobilizes against a Florida Senator, it’s usually Marco Rubio, who’s offices have seen over a dozens of protests over the past year. This time it’s his friendly colleague across the aisle, Bill Nelson who’s phones will be ringing over the next few weeks.
The Republican Party of Florida, as well as GOP groups across the state are reaching out to it’s members to call on the longtime Democratic Senator to confirm Donald Trump Supreme Court nominee, Neil Gorsuch to the highest court in the land. Republicans are being asked to make phone calls to Nelson’s office, send messages to his Twitter account, and write letters to the editor, to push what could be a contentious confirmation process.
“Judge Gorsuch is a strong conservative that will protect our individual rights, defend the Constitution, and be a champion for limited government.” said Republican Party of Florida Chair Blaise Ingoglia “Now the battle begins. Democrats, led by Chuck Schumer, Elizabeth Warren, and Bernie Sanders have vowed to deny Americans a ninth justice to the Supreme Court. They are determined to ignore the will of the American people purely for political reasons.
Nelson’s early remarks positive in sentiment but neutral otherwise saying “The confirmation of a Supreme Court justice is an awesome responsibility that I gladly accept. I will base my decision on a full examination of Judge Gorsuch’s judicial record and his responses to senators’ questions.”
I say we not only flood Nelson’s phone & e-maill, I think the Florida Kossacks need to organize protests outside his offices. Here are his addresses:
