    McConnell is right. Adding a #DACA fix to the spending bill is irresponsible. Congress should not play year-end politics with #Dreamers.https://twitter.com/thisweekabc/status/937329119892717568 …

        Wish I could like this more than once. Reminds me of his complaining about democrats obstructing when republicans did that even more so, particularly regarding federal and supreme court judges.

        As your constituent, I am having a hard time following your thought process here. You just voted yes on corporate tax reform that gave deductions for private planes. It also removed an annual $250 deduction for teachers to buy classroom materials.

        At face value this appears to be a huge benefit to corporate donors. We both know that the feedback you received prior to your vote on the corporate tax reform was negative but you ignored the people of Oklahoma. If that is not true please correct me.

        Tell that to your own constituent who is currently on ICE hold at the OK Cty Sheriff’s Office for pickup by ICE. She’s an active & beloved OU #DACA student whose paperwork didn’t require renewal until 2019, yet she’s being held! Oklahoma, please RT link.https://www.gofundme.com/help-blanca-come-home …

        Senator(s), can you remember back to Friday, when you were playing year-end politics with the #TaxScamBill ? You seriously voted against reading the bill before voting. #Shame @GOP is irresponsible.

        You managed to save the top 1% money for private jet use & private school tuition. You eliminated the estate tax which will benefit only 50 rich families in OK. You can add $1T to the debt. But no CHIP or DACA? Sounds like you’re too busy to help the neediest. #GOPTaxScam

        Pleeeeease don't use the word 'irresponsible'. It shows you have a mastery of the concept, but are unwilling to apply it. You screwed all of OK by voting for the #GOPTaxScam. That's applied irresponsibility. Can't wait for your political demise.

        Helping undocumented kids who work hard and want to live a better life here in their home country is irresponsible? But adding 1.5 trillion dollars to the deficit and giving tax breaks to the top 1% isn't? Really?

        That is how it appeared from my perspective. Senator, I feel like you are not representing me or other Oklahoman's accurately. I am not unreasonable. I have an open mind. That being said, I sincerely hope that you do too.
