I had pointed out two of the thirteen Democratic U.S. Senators still undecided about the upcoming vote on Trump’s Supreme Court Nominee, Neil Gorsuch. Here’s another one (who happens to be up for re-election) that needs to hear from you:
Democrats are lining up to oppose Neil Gorsuch, President Trump's Supreme Court nominee, but Florida Sen. Bill Nelson isn't saying where he stands.
"Still undecided on both," Nelson's spokesman tells The Buzz on whether how he will vote or whether he supports growing Democratic calls for a filibuster.
A filibuster, which New York Sen. Charles Schumer called for yesterday, would force Republicans to upend Senate rules to allow for a simple majority.
Nelson oppossed a filibuster for Sameul Alito in 2006, though voted against him. Yet Nelson previously told us he supports 60-vote threshold for a Supreme Court nominee.
We have to keep putting pressure on Nelson because he’s already a top target for the GOP:
Florida voters can expect to receive mailers from a veterans group with Republican ties urging them to urge Democratic U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson to vote to confirm Neil Gorsuch as a Supreme Court justice.
The group Veterans Concerned for America, run by a former GOP state finance chairman, is making a second round of mailings to Florida voters targeting Nelson. Similar efforts are underway in other states with Democratic senators.
The mailers ask: “Will Senator Bill Nelson protect the freedoms you fought to defend?” and then urges voters to call his office.
