Sen. Smith it seems like you and your colleagues are following a policy of intentional opacity in preventing constituents from knowing with any time in advance whether you plan to vote for this poison pill CR. I think this has implications beyond even this very important vote.

How can we get some public pressure to have 4 Republican Senators leave the party, become independents and Caucus with the D's? Sens Murkowski, Collins and Tillis should all be candidates. Perhaps Senator Young too?

Come on Democratic Senate Leadership, offer them something!
