The biggest threat we have to representative Democracy is leaders who think that they are unaccountable to us; who think that they don’t answer to us; who refuse to acknowledge that *they* work for *us*.

I never *ever* EVER want to hear another Democrat complain about Republicans ignoring us if you refuse to hold Democrats to that same standard of accountability. @donnaimamTX

I’m posting screenshots of just a few people who have been blocked or ignored by the Democratic nominee for my district. You can see how benign these questions and concerns are. No one is asking out-of-bounds questions, making rude statements, or imposing “purity tests”.pic.twitter.com/BFKFbTXsLZ

Think about what you are telling people when you hand-wave this away as if it is no big deal. You’re telling college aged young people, who are just getting politically involved, and looking for a political home, that they should not expect to be heard by their representatives.pic.twitter.com/SEJp3Y4Uhg

You’re telling Independents and moderate Republicans that their voices and concerns are not welcome in this party. You’re telling local activists that their work is not valuable or necessary to the Democratic Party. @texasdemocrats is this the message you want to send?pic.twitter.com/cdTGKDZskT

You can be a part of the solution, by putting pressure on Ms. Imam to reverse course ASAP. Most of these people are willing to change their minds about her and get on board. But *she* has to knock this shit off. @AndrewYang @HumanityForward @EmgageActionpic.twitter.com/He8mfjB776

.@AndrewYang @HumanityForward @EmgageAction Your endorsed candidate just blocked another constituent. This young woman just turned 18. She is just starting to get her feet wet in politics. What does it say to her that your endorsed candidate blocked her?pic.twitter.com/vyHYYdK3Bz

Hey @indivisibleATX and @IndivisibleTeam what do y’all think about this lack of accessibility to constituents? Y’all have always said that you are non-partisan. What are y’all’s thoughts on blocking constituents from being able to ask questions by people who seek elected office.

Hey, @JulianCastro why are you supporting @donnaimamTX who continually blocks constituents from accessing her and refuses to answer constituent questions?

Secretary @JulianCastro can you use your influence to get her to come to the table? Answer our questions? Unblock us? Why is blocking constituents ok with you? Why do you condone this behavior from someone who is supposed to represent everyone in the district?

Because, @JulianCastro we are going to assume that you think this is ok if you don’t speak up. We will assume that you think not answering to constituents is acceptable behavior for elected officials. Is that the message you want to send?
