Resistance Recess

by digby

Here’s a tool for you to use to find out about events happening at congressional offices, townhalls etc during the recess this week:

The week of February 18–26 is the first recess of the 115th Congress—time specifically set aside for members of Congress to meet with constituents and get the pulse of the communities they represent.

This is the perfect time to raise our voices. We will show up at our elected officials’ events, town halls, other public appearances, and even plan our own events, if they refuse to meet with us, to make it clear to those who represent us, as well as to the media, that tolerance of Trump’s hurtful agenda is unacceptable and politically toxic.

Will you join fellow constituents and attend a Resistance Recess action near you?

This can be effective. Even if your representative is a Democrats there may be meetings worth going to to feel out what’s happening and let them know you expect them to resist normalization. And Republicans definitely need to hear from you.
