We need to take the time to gather all of the facts around these allegations. That means we need to also hear from Mark Judge. The Judiciary Committee should subpoena him if he refuses to testify.

In To Kill a Mockingbird, Atticus Finch said, “The one thing that doesn’t abide by majority rule is a person’s conscience.” All along, my conscience has been my guide. But voting my conscience does not require courage — it simply requires doing what I know is right.

It’s real simple folks, we pay what we owe our hardworking govt workers-with interest. We also have a separate bill that gives back pay to employees of federal contractors. Both seem simple, but I will need your help. Contact your legislators & ask them to join me.

A Doug Jones bill would add interest to federal workers’ back pay after the shutdown: “If the federal government can charge you interest for being late on your taxes, then it should be paying interest on late paychecks,” Jones said in a statement.

If the President wanted to save money, he could have started by not handing billions in tax cuts to the wealthy. His decision is unfair to the 38k hard-working Alabamians in federal civilian service & only serves to punish people who carry out this important work every day.

It’s a fair question Deb. I had hoped that AG Barr would be in the mold of Bill Ruckelshaus, especially given the possible alternatives & the times we live in, but he has shown that he clearly is not. So with the benefit of hindsight my answer is no, my vote would not be the same
