A Republican US Senator just said:
"We are all afraid."
Then paused, and added:
"I'm often times very anxious myself, about using my voice, because retaliation is real."
Also she asked people to keep protesting at her offices. "It's going to sound crazy coming from an elected official, but I'm going to continue to urge you to raise your voices."
I can't overstate how important this is. A Republican senator naming the elephant in the room, and encouraging protest!
