13. I'd start a petition drive to recall Wyden ,,,Oregon is one of 18 states w recall of US Senators

Wyden enabled the delivery of the TPP to fast track. The TPP is a complete usurpation of the principles of the Democratic party/brand and an insult to Oregon voters who thought Wyden represenrted them

Petitioning these treacherous senators and demonstrating in front of their local offices get no attention from them or the media. But starting a recall petition for any Democratic Senator (or Congressperson where recall is possible) who supports TPP...now that will get both the attention of these turncoats, the media and a wider public.

Oregon is solidly blue. The Dems there do not need a senator who would betray them so profoundly.
