It's time to Weinstein the NRA

If representatives have received money from them then they need to give it back. Just like with sexual assault, they need to make a stand.

It's unlikely that we'll get anything on the Republican side, but perhaps they can be shamed into it a bit more with the various Democrats that have taken money.

to the candidate. How about some commercials asking your representative and/ or senator to return NRA contributions? There are PACs that run ads asking people call and ""thank" people like Paul Ryan for their tax cuts. I would donate to fund a commercial that exposes these NRA tools.

Some will still support it, but would they be proud to?
