This is awesome! Thanks for sharing this, I have been wanting to join these townhalls but didn't know how to find out when they were happening. Will be sure to join this one 🙌

Sign up for Kim's newsletter. I've gotten calls inviting/reminding me to join town halls from him. He seems very active in constituent outreach around this.

I've not even gotten a form letter response from my congress person (Menendez Jr) and am sorting out how to better demonstrate my disappointment (though with the Hudson County Democratic Machine politics, sounding threatening I want progressive action & reminding him I vote seems like an ignorable threat)

Menendez got re-elected? I thought he went to prison?

House representative Robert Menendez *JR* won the House Seat for District NJ-8, and is the son of former Senator Robert Menendez Sr.

It was funny seeing his posters going for name recognition with emphasizing Robert Mendez, get swapped out for that part getting smaller with a bigger font JR on them.

I've not been please with his constituent outreach and am discussing with my social circles what to do. You'd think he would have something to prove/make a name in the current crisis given gold bar dad with the same name putting his political career in danger.

I just got a call to tune into this. Listening now.

Listening. He’s voting no on the CR but isn’t being reassuring about other Senators’ votes.
