Glad you're here! Disgraceful day. Even more disgraceful is the handful of Dems who voted with the bad guys. Stunning. And deeply shameful.

I humbly submit the Toll Free phone numbers to the Capitol Hill switchboard. Below, in my sig line. Call them during business hours. Call any Senator you can think of, if you really wanna know. The good and the bad. The good need to know we have their backs (because they're gonna be under siege from the NRA) and the bad need to know we have their number.

If they think you don't care, THEY WON'T, EITHER!!!!!
