went to the answering machine. Both took about 3 minutes to connect.
Left a message about DeVos and also told them that those of us who are calling are real and we are pissed off.

It's like the 20th call to both of them on DeVos.
Republicans are doing a daily double on education in Iowa. While the senate confirms (i hope not) DeVos, in DM the legislature is cutting the crap out of the education budget.
This is what the radical right calls a win-win

And emailed too. I didn't expect it to change their minds (and it didn't), but I'm going to keep bugging them.
I won't let them forget their actions.
