Call 202-224-3121 and talk to or leave message for Sen. Cassidy and Kennedy to vote NO for anymore Ukraine aid (up tp 55 Billion if new bill passes). And call H.R. Scalise's office at same number and criticize him for voting for the Bill when he couldn't have read Bill by time of his vote

Bill was late being turned over to H.R. for vote on Thursday evening at 3PM and several Representatives speaking against Bill stated they didn't even have chance to read entire Bill.

When I called Sen. Cassidy's office this morning his office assistant stated he did research on Bill and I called her out for a mistruth cause Bill was let out only on Thursday evening.

Senator Raul correctly opposed Sen.Schumer and McConnell's bilateral recommendation of unanimous passage before the Senate and is calling to make each Senator voted Bill up or down.

This voting for a Bill before it is completely read and evaluated for objections and debate has got to stop !

Something that large should require 60 votes for.

They couldn’t care any less what we think. It’s obvious.

Democrats stepped right into this one.

The 40 billion to Ukraine is amazingly easy to get young leftist angry over. First hand accounts of getting through a few of these young minds of mush.

They bring up examples here in America or nearby cities what that money could do, before I even bring up bridges, roads etc. They get pissed and when I say every Democrat voted for it, 57 Republicans opposed it. They look like someone hit them in the face with a baseball bat. Priceless.

Maybe. Maybe not.

It’s our responsibility to let them know how we feel. If you aren’t reaching out, then you lose your right to complain.

I realize it feels pointless at times. It’s still our responsibility. Don’t ever forget.. They work for you.

Schumer says Ukraine is running out of ammo...

Please call these (2) La. politicians because La. Representative Scalice soldout American taxpayers and we as the taxpayers are running out of money....

This 40 Billion will be returned to mainly the Brandon administration in cash kickbacks for their personal profit in off shore banks and /or campaign funds.

Had illegal immigrants walking with backpacks through my business neighborhood recently.... this money needs to be spent on our border and border fence which is being over run with cartel drugs from Chyna and human smuggling.

America First ! Europe's time to put up your frickin' money !

This right here. You can have everyone in the district call and they will still vote for it. They are out for themselves!

This attitude is exactly why we are where we are with the state of politics.

We should all have this attitude towards our politicians. You just might be surprised at how things might change.

Called Cassidy's office and they said he would be voting for YES on the bill. Just spoke with someone from Kennedy's office and they would not give me an answer other than the senator is very uncomfortable with this bill. The person on the phone said calls have been coming in strongly in opposition of this bill.

True, they may not care, and it may do no good but call them anyway, let them know you disapprove of the job they’re doing and if they want to be re-elected they should remember who they work for.

You didnt give Cassidys interns an earful as to why he’s voting yes?

Thought it was just Cassidy but all these politicians dont give a dam about us. Pretty evident.

I gave both offices a full earful and then some as to my opposition of how voting for this bill would be morally and fiscally irresponsible to the citizens of this country. Sending borrowed money to fund a war between two corrupt foreign countries is complete insanity.
