So who’s holding Social Security meetings in their district?
Well, in New York state apparently no one with an ‘R’ after their name.
In This Together is a pro-Social Security coalition in New York (here’s a list of the organizations in the group). Alex Navarro is the group’s communications director; and he tells me that as near as they have been able to ascertain not one Republican in New York state is holding a meeting this week.
Democrats, lotsa meetings. Republicans, no meetings. Hard to imagine.
One of the things that makes it hard to find out precisely is that Republicans who are holding meetings don’t seem too eager to publicize them. And Navarro makes clear that this was what they could figure out “from a round of calls to their offices at the end of last week.”
So, if anyone knows different, do let us know. But until we hear otherwise, New York may be the Empire state. But it ain’t got no Republican gladiators.
