    Throughout this #TaxReform convo, I’ve been excited to hear my colleagues across the aisle express concern about debt & deficits. I’d like to invite them (& you) to attend this briefing w/me next Thurs on #FederalFumbles & “Curbing Wasteful Spending”https://www.cato.org/events/curbing-wasteful-spending-now-future …

        If there is one ethical bone in your body, you should uphold YOUR promise to not vote for increasing the deficit by 1TRILLION dollars. HAVE YOU READ THIS BILL? Your constituents certainly haven’t been given the opportunity to even see the bill. Shameful!

        Maybe they'd take you more seriously if your vote today showed that you won't support raising the defiict by a trillion dollars. Otherwise they're probably just as horrified by your hypocrisy as the majority of your constituents are.

        Please vote NO on this bill that will hugely raise the debt and make it tougher for Oklahomans to pursue higher education.

        The Trump-Russia ties are obvious for all to see. Lankford is trying to obfuscate. He will not be remembered well in history books.

        I think I can speak for a moderate portion of your constituents when I say that we'd prefer you listen to us along w those across the aisle before voting "yes" on this horrendous tax bill.

        Vote NO on 1.3T dollar deficit to fund a tax windfall for GOP donors. It is immoral and repugnant to Oklahomans.

        I remember when your party was “fiscally responsible”. By gaining the appreciation of the donor class, you will lose the support of the middle class. That’s your legacy now.

        I feel like creating a $1 trillion deficit counts as wasteful spending. So maybe you could vote no on the tax bill?

        This is so bad. We have just gotten list of amendments to be included in bill NOT from our R colleagues, but from lobbyists downtown. None of us have seen this list, but lobbyists have it. Need I say more? Disgusting. And we probably will not even be given time to read them. pic.twitter.com/Mn0i56JeZg

        It's pretty clear that you don't even understand the purpose of the NSF when you run off half cocked claiming that basic research is wasteful spending.
