Weekly Check In March 3

[tanaqui]

It's been quiet in the comm again, but there's been plenty to keep us occupied in the news this week. I hope you all enjoyed Michael Cohen's testimony to Congress as much as I did.

executrix posted links to more Trump approval polls. And you can continue to Be Kind To Your Democratic Congresscritters (And Their Staffers!), as suggested sathari. There are a couple of suggestions for House bills you might want to urge them to support, and the Democrats in the House are also pushing to counter 45's declaration of emergency on the US-Mexico border.

As always, you can make a post on a topic, even a links round up, directly to the comm; post to our suggestion post for the mods to post; and go through tags to see past actions and topics.

So, what have you all been up to in the last week or are planning to get involved in next week?

I only watched AOC's five minutes. But DAMN that was an impressive five minutes.
