Alright I took my sister's letter to Senator Hatch and used parts of it.  Then I went a little crazy on Congressman Amodei.

Senator Heller's been getting all my wrath on his voting for the Presidental appointments.

But the Republican Congress is usually where these crazy ideas take fight, and Mr. Amodei needs to know we don't appreciate what he is going along with


Also shit, I called him Senator Hatch. I forgot to edit that part of the letter. Now I look stupid.... Oh well. I'm going to send it again with an explanation. Oops


 Dear Senator Hatch -

I am you constituent and I am very dissapointed in your total allegiance to the NRA at the expense of public safety.

I really feel concerned about the recent efforts to make guns available to those with mental problems? The only possible reason that could be for doing this is wanting to follow the NRA's wishes? This seems like a decision that ignores what is right and favors special interests and power. I know you have a party to belong to but isn't this a betrayal of the citizens.  Did this make us safer? Is this an issue of safety?  Does it stop crime?  You know in your heart it isn't.


I used to be a Mental Health Case Worker. It was my job to evaluate the Seriously Mentally Ill. Repealing this law means people who are too unstable to cash their own Disabiity Check can purchase guns.

I've been in countless situations in my former career where my job was to keep people suffering serious internal crises calm while we waited for the police to show up to take them to the State Hospital because they were a threat to themselves or others.

Do you understand how dangerous it would be for someone like me, or the police officers for people who are suffering from serious delusions to be carrying assault weapons?

Every time there is a mass shooting in America we ask you to do something to stop the proliferation of Military Style Assault Weapons and you refuse to do ANYTHING that the NRA would dissaprove of because you care about your 100% rating from the NRA than you do the safety of your consituents.

Is following the Republican Party and the NRA all you care about? Will you ever follow your conscience or think indepdently when you have an opportunity to be a man of conscience?

So far you have been a rubber stamp for President Trump. Why are his first priorities to allow coal miners to dump waste in streams when this is the very sort of thing that poisoned the water in Flint Michigan? Why isn't helping the people of Flint more important than that?

Why is taking away health care from your constituents so important to you. Is it because you hate President Obama so much that you just want to undo anything he accomplished as President just because he's the one who did it?

I am looking forward to you manning up and having a town hall in Reno or Carson City. I think you will be surprised how much opposition there is in this district to your support for the Trump agenda. I know this is a Red area, I know Trump won in Northern Nevada.   I bet you would be surprised how many of those people are regretting their vote and watching in horror as they start to understand what he is doing with your support.

His approval rating is at a historic low for a new President. What could possibly make it go up?  You have hitched your anchor to a sinking ship.

You need to change your ways.  The more you ignore us the harder we will fight.

We are keeping track of your votes. The more you rubber stamp Trump's agenda, the harder we campaign against you.

I am not someone who knocks on doors and volunteers to make phone calls.  But if you don't grow a spine on these issues. I promise you I will become that person.

I apologize for the harsh tone of this letter Mr. Amodei. I understand you are probably facing a lot of pressure from your constituents right now and I feel for you.

At the same time, I hope you take our opinions to heart and recognize that we are watching your votes and we won't forget when you betray our safety and our future

Sincerely
Mike Jones
