I just got off the phone with a staffer at Sen. Barbara Boxer's Washington office after many, many tries.
When I requested that Sen. Boxer please support Rep. Conyers' challenge to the 2004 voting process, the staffer said, "Don't worry, she will".
What excellent news!
The aide was very nice, especially when I told her that I'm a Floridian who appreciates Boxer's service to our country.
It's encouraging that I can look to her for leadership since my Democratic Senator, Bill Nelson, cannot be counted on to support debate on this very important issue.
