Does My Senator Support Jeff Sessions?
On Tuesday, the Senate voted 52-47 to go forward with Alabama Sen. Jeff Sessions’ nomination to be attorney general. His confirmation is expected on Wednesday, despite the opposition of Senate Democrats to their political peer. In the vote Tuesday, no Republican senators voted against his confirmation. But there's still a chance he could be denied the position, if enough senators vote in opposition. Many people are asking, " does my senator support Jeff Sessions?" Here's the info for everyone who does, with information on how to contact them for a last-minute effort to get them to change their vote before the confirmation tomorrow.
In spite of an attempted filibuster Tuesday by Democrats, Sessions was moved ahead in the confirmation process in a procedural vote. Democrats were not able to convince any Republicans to vote against Sessions, and in fact lost a Democrat in the 52-47 vote. Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia was the only Democrat to cross party lines and back Sessions on Tuesday, and Sessions, a senator himself, only voted as being "present" on the floor.
If you would like to contact your representative and urge them to vote against confirming Jeff Sessions for the attorney general role in the Trump administration, here are some ways to do so.

Sessions has been accused of racism and it has prevented him from getting positions in the past. His office has not responded to Romper's request for comment on those allegations. If you want your senator to oppose Sessions, then speak out.
