My rep in Congress, after redistricting, is now again a Republican. My former Rep. is running for the Senate in Texas. I maxed out to him as well. Another, a Congressman from Arizona, is running for Senate there. I had breakfast with him in DC in April. I am in touch with my 3 friends in the Senate as well as one other in the House. She is a Rep. from Minnesota in a swing district. I maxed out to her as well. This is taking a heavy toll on the piggy bank, since I have to earn $4000 gross for every $1000 I contribute due to double taxation. But better now than later regrets.

A couple of my friends in the House think Joe Biden should step down. They are quite aware that I disagree.
