What else can they do at the moment? I am simply gratified that some of the Dems are speaking out. I know it doesn't seem like much but I think it helps.

"TERSE letter" but I agree it's baby steps right now. Each step more folks get on the train to victory with us. With every single protest whether it be written, showing up in person, or with our wallets we are increasing our numbers, our presence and our impact.

I’d like to see military officers and enlisted personnel become more proactive across the board, as well as veterans groups active now.

A heads up that we hear you, to our veterans and troubled active duty/reserve members.

Stand back and Stand by!
