My last rep, Senator Klobuchar, is not all that far behind in her answer to my suggestion for ending the shutdown. This time I don’t even get boilerplate concerning the subject, just thanks for your idea. Sort of. Not really.
Thank you for contacting me about the government shutdown. I appreciate hearing from you on this important issue.
As you may know, an agreement has been reached between Congress and the President to reopen the federal government until February 15, which will allow furloughed federal government employees to go back to work, workers to be paid, and services to resume. Please know that I will continue to work toward finding a long-term solution as discussions continue in the Senate.
Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me. I continue to be humbled to be your Senator, and one of the most important parts of my job is listening to the people of Minnesota. I am here in our nation’s capital to do the public’s business. I hope you will contact me again about matters of concern to you.
Sincerely,
Amy Klobuchar
United States Senator
But her punctuality isn’t too bad. I wonder if she’s going to run for President or stick with the legislating job.
