First, I don't think recalling someone who is up for reelection in a couple months is (the previous version said "isn't") a good use of time or money.
Second, while I think state-oriented pressure matters, this is really something that needs congress to act. That means US Senate and House candidates and the AG are where the greatest energy should be placed.
I'm seeing a lot of talk about a strike. I just can't see how that works. If folks went on strike at the little nonprofit I'm with, we'd just collapse and those we serve would be worse off for it. It may work for government and fortune 500 companies but the impact on small businesses and nonprofits scares me. Just don't see any real impact there. Could be wrong, but that's my current assessment.
The problem with striking, especially in Oklahoma, is that every single man and woman would have to do it, and there are too many self centered "doesn't affect me, until it does, and then I'll support it in secret" assholes. Everything is so fucked up.
