Which issues should we be calling, etc., our congress critters about in the next few weeks?
There are so many issues, I'm getting overwhelmed.
Tax Reform (looks like trickle down to me, which increases income inequality)
DACA (they need to stay here and have a clear path to citizenship)
Health Insurance (are they still screwing around with that?)
Budget
Debt Ceiling
I'm sure there is more. Please reply with the very important issues you can think of.
Also, if anyone has a good speech about each issue to give the congress critters when phoned, texted, emailed, tweeted, facebooked, etc., would you please post it.
My brain is about fried.
Thank you!

Do the Democrats have a Koch brothers equivalent?
Forgive my ignorance.
I am alarmed by the amount of money the Koch brothers plan to spend on the 2018 election, around $400 million, according to WAPO.
Thank you.
