They are not the people preaching hate.

I sent a message to Senators Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell to support Schatz.

I'm treasurer for my county library foundation. You can support a group like that or you can give directly to The Dollywood Foundation for the Imagination Library or to Reach Out and Read. Both are literacy programs.
