WHY IS THE FILIBUSTER NOT ALL OVER MY DASH. Six hours and they’re still going. You go, Senator Murphy (D-CT).

Senate Dems are taking a stand to support background check measures, which are supported by 92% of Americans, including 87% of Republicans, and to oppose the terrorism loophole that enabled the Orlando shooter to buy an AR-15 with the ease of buying a fucking pizza. These are no-shit common-sense bipartisan measures that have ONLY been prevented because of the massive financial influence of the NRA.

Call your Senator. Email your Senator. If they’re filibustering, send support. If they’re not, tell them to. Here is a list of EVERY SENATOR’S CONTACT INFO. Do this RIGHT NOW.

#ENOUGH. #ENOUGH. #ENOUGH. #ENOUGH.

Note: this is now the 10th longest filibuster in recorded history.

11 hours, 8 minutes. Chris Murphy is not fucking around.
