I work in manufacturing, supporting a company based in the USA that's currently expanding as a direct result of the CHIPS act.
I wrote both of my state senators and my representative to voice my concerns over this and other things, asking why they haven't taken action against the unconstitutional shit going on, or why they support those actions (Mike Lee is a traitorous bitch).
I fully expect to get [standard form response] from all of them, expressing their gratitude (lol) for writing in, proceeded by fellating Trump and Musk. If that's the case, I plan on refuting and asking directly why they aren't answering my questions. I won't stop at this point. My nice switch is off.
If only you could have heard the message I left Chuck Schumer earlier today. Hell, I wish I could listen to it again. It was inspired.
I believe it! I listened to John Larson's speech today, the one from a few days ago during the Doge hearing. Sent it to my wife, it made her day.

He looks good in red.
Yes, but as a very busy person (working full time, parent of 5 kids), it's all I can really do right now.
That sounds like it could annoy your neighbors while the people in power have no idea it's even happening.
