3. Two prong: Letters to editors to refocus media. Lobby Senators to block.

Both avenues need to be pursued.

Bringing attention to what the house is doing, and shifting the "frame" as much as possible to excoriate Republicans in general for destroying crucial protections, etc., is important because we need to take down the Repubs for their bad actions. DT can be destroyed or self-destruct, but if what the Repubs are up to goes unnoticed, everyone will breathe a big sigh of relief that DT is gone, and support for Repubs in general will remain untouched.

Re: Senate. I've been focused on pushing for a commitment to filibuster Gorsuch.
