…Your GRATEFUL activity could be to call the 44 GOP folk who voted for your $2000 relief checks in Congress yesterday. You could start at the end of the alphabet & talk to Rep Lee Zelden of NY’s 1st District. He represents my brother & listed 15 projects of the Appropriations bill that will directly benefit the folks at the tip of Long Island.

…I suggest that you to do something about Russia’s breach of 40 – 50 computer networks. Some speculate that the IRS has been hacked, which can’t be good for anyone, but especially you.

I am so excited that you signed CO Rep. Joe Neguse’s H.R. 473 to create a suffragists monument in DC. I agree with your tweet that it will “INSPIRE all women to continue being bold and brave in achieving their DREAMS!”…
