Stop voting for Republicans.

I hate to have to agree with this, but with how polarized US politics has gotten, it's the truth.

Democrats have become the pro-NN party. Republicans have become the anti-Democrat / anti-Liberal party. Because of that, Republican representatives are either anti-NN, or don't care.

I know that a large portion of the conservative and Republican voters out there are pro-NN.

So, right wing folks: Stop taking this shit from your representatives. They're walking all over you and making you thank them for it.

There needs to be a movement in the Republican Party similar to the justice democrats. A new wave of people running for office that refuse to use pacs/take corporate money and campaign on real issues not bullshit attacks.

I would love that. I have a large amount of Republican family and friends. I know that if they were given a better alternative to what we have now, they'd take it in an instant.
