There’s a diary on the Rec list today about U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D. NY) claiming to have the votes to filibuster Trump’s SCOTUS nominee, Neil Gorsuch. However, the diary also indicates that there are 13 Democratic Senators who haven’t said which way they will vote. One of them, former Vice Presidential candidate, Tim Kaine (D. VA), indicated that he’s taking the weekend to make his decision:
Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, the party's vice presidential nominee last year, said he would “decide over the weekend” how he would vote on the judge. A potential change to Senate rules is the domain of leadership, he added, "so I don’t think that’s going to affect my view of his candidacy on the merits.”
Whether you’re a Virginia Kossack or not, I urge you to make Kaine return to his office on Monday with a full mailbox telling him to vote No on Gorsuch. Also, remind him his vote will be taken into mind when he faces the voters next year. Below are all of Kaine’s contact numbers and e-mail. Let’s fill them up!
