My senators, who are both saying Franken should resign. Staffer said this is very difficult and agreed with me that the nature of the allegations is quite different from others. I said I thought this was a perfect set up for right wingers to go after our progressive champions, and if this works, why stop with Al? And given that these allegations appeared they could be unsubstantiated, go for an investigation first!
This was the only action I could think of, other than calling Franken's office to offer support, but I thought this would be more important since I am not a constituent of Franken's.
