NYers: I just called all 5 of Sen. Schumer's offices (got 3 people, left 1 msg), and asked that he fight Whitaker's appointment with all he's got. What are you waiting for? 202-224-6542 212-486-4430 631-753-0978 607-772-6792 914-734-1532

If, like me, you had appalling difficulties simply voting yesterday, register your experience on this site created by @ProPublica : https://t.co/GwES92fVVs . And if you're in NYS, pressure the new Dem leadership (@NYGovCuomo ) to push hard on electoral reform.
