I feel like maybe we should call our 4 senators (AK, MW and both KY) and say thanks for voting the way the did. I am from AK, I generally don't agree with a lot of what Lisa does, but she does have a history of occasional rank breaking, and, performative or not, she is still one of the only senators who doesn't religiously fall in line.

Feeling like i should call mine and ask why they couldn't stand up with these 4.

I called one and said thanks. Called the other, and told his voicemail the same thing. Not that he will listen... Useless human.
