Major life fail. Focus on careers, no kids. Invested max in 401k, plan to retire @ 55 & have adventures. Stage 4 cancer tossed our lives into chaos. Trump threw our retirement in the shredder as my husband simplified finances b4 he meets his maker. We do not have the luxury of time to recover.

i will say one silver lining about sending faxes is that you can make your message more distinctive than a staffer making a tally mark on a post-it note
![Dear Senator Durbin,
I am a constituent living in Chicago. I have been calling and unable to reach you, so I have sent this fax.
As my representative, I am asking you:
[in very large letters]
VOTE
NO
Vote no on cloture.
Vote no on the continuing resolution.
Vote no on every appointment.
Vote no on every motion.
Object to unanimous consent.
Grind the work of the senate to a halt.
Stop compromising with people who are hurting my family.
What they are doing is wrong, and it is wrong to help them.
It is immoral and shocking, and every courtesy you extend enables that harm.
Vote no.
Sincerely,
Anthony Moser

Epic failure on multiple levels. The worst being that people just don’t care until it hits them. I can forgive people for not understanding supply chains. I’m guilty of that sometimes too.
