ezs note:  Now that the House Intelligence Committee has pretty much finished its business, it now goes to the Rules Committee to prepare a final draft.  Then the whole House takes its vote.  It's quite a dramatic thing in itself - impeachment votes are a rarity - but then the Senate takes over.  If you live in a state in which there are one or two Republican  Senators, ya gotta call, email, snail-mail, (not really recommended unless there is no other choice)  or visit directly when she/he comes to town, and urge her/him to vote YES to oust Trump.  Be polite but firm.  Bullet points are great, 3 to 5 should suffice.  If you're talking more than a minute, you're talking too long.  Others may not agree with you, but let others have their say.  If you are uncertain about whether your Senators (there are two)  are Republican, Democrat, or other, go to senate.gov.  Thanks.
