A truly bi-partisan issue. I understand the desire to preserve the traditional look of the Cap. But it can be a very grim place on a cloudy day. And in night sessions we all looked lit from below-- like we were telling ghost stories with a flashlight under our chins
I can’t believe it but I agree w/ Erdman. As a low vision legally blind person, the lighting in the Capitol causes me great anxiety. Especially the stairs which to use - I have to scooch down on my bum like a toddler bc it’s too dark to see the next step. #neleg

Anyone else miss the simpler times when Halliburton was the Boogeyman? (I had a teacher's union official tell me once she hated the "Koch" family so much she only drank Pepsi-- honestly)
A friend of mine just said’ “Our kids grew up hanging out with Senator Kauth’s kids in the same neighborhood. We didn’t pick up on it, but clearly she’s become an operative of out of state money - the Koch Network. #NeLeg
I was stunned when "Avengers Endgame" had "Dear Mr. Fantasy as its opening music. Now I watch the "Guardians of the Galaxy 3" trailer, and the song is "Since You've Been Gone" by Rainbow-- one of my all time favorites. Get out of my head.

Tonight begins #YomHaShoah, Israel's Holocaust Remembrance Day.
The Holocaust didn't begin with gas chambers. It began with antisemitic words, prejudice, and violence. Today, we will remember the 6 million Jews who were murdered and vow to never forget or turn a blind eye again.
