Delegation must stand up

Our democracy is at risk and Sens. Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul and Rep. Andy Barr cannot be silent while Russian-backed tyrants are in the Oval Office.

We are disgusted, angry, scared, sad and looking for someone to stand up to him before he destroys everything our country was based on and puts us more at risk from extremists. Our representatives must protect and defend the Constitution: Stand up, speak out and do their jobs.
