After seeing this video from Jolly Good Ginger, I plan to do a little more with Jackie Rosen and Tim Kaine. You can also see this video on Instagram. He has a YouTube Channel, but I couldn't find this video there. He's also on TikTok, but I'm not. I wish I weren't on Facebook or Instagram, but I have some necessary connections there.
In the video, he explains that he has information from a direct source on some behind the scenes happenings in the heated debate by Dems over the government shutdown. He does a great job explaining the next steps in the procedure to get this shutdown ended and which of the rogue players might be swayed to change back - Tim Kaine and Jacky Rosen.
Tim Kaine is said to have voted to end the shutdown because of the high number of constituent contacts he was getting from furloughed federal workers or those in danger of being fired. If he hears equally from those dismayed over healthcare concerns, he could flip back. Also, Jackie Rosen might be another likely to be swayed by contacts for similar reasons.
He recommends contacting Tim Kaine and Jacky Rosen- call, message on their gov page or leave a message on their social media profiles and let them know how upset you are about healthcare concerns and the loss of ACA subsidies.
I didn't link all their social media pages but do a search on whatever platforms you use and you might find them.
The last post from Tim Kaine on his Facebook page was Nov 4. At the time of this post, it had 4.4K comments - most from people angry about him breaking ranks. Jackie Rosen has some more recent posts on Facebook and the comments on all are ticking up as well. I added my comments to the mix and will look on other platforms after I complete this post. One wonderful comment on Jacky's Veteran's Day post - "Veterans are all about holding the line. You didn't do this. You voted to give up access to healthcare for millions of Americans. I know this isn't over and it certainly isn't too late for you to reverse your vote. Americans, including families of veterans, need those ACA subsidies. Now isn't the time to be rogue. It's time for you to protect your constituents. Change your vote then hold that line!"
