Any word from the voters of New York's 3rd congressional district?

Why aren't the voters of that district starting a writing campaign against their lying, cheating and stealing congressman they claim they didn't know they voted for? Shouldn't they be going door to door asking each other to write to the speaker of the house to sanction or expel him from the house so they can have someone that only lies a little but really graduated from somewhere?

she didn’t vote for him and was shocked that he won, although she always said there were plenty of right wing nuts in her neighborhood. She and some like-minded friends have been making calls to discuss what might be done.

I think their best angle is to demand proof of citizenship. If he is naturalized he has to live in the US for seven years to be eligible to hold the office.

I would contact every member of the NY congressional delegation and ask them to demand to see the paperwork.

They can contact the local party headquarters and the national headquarters to take sanctions against him and stop supporting him with money.

I was talking about something that would remove him from office right now. That will be supported by the taxpayers.
