Mandatory Yearly link.

Here’s a complete list of worthwhile US Senators
Sen. Thomas Coburn (R, OK)
Sen. Thomas Harkin (D, IA)
Sen. Mike Lee (R, UT)
Sen. Jeff Merkley (D, OR)
Sen. Ron Wyden (D, OR)
Sen. Rand Paul (R, KY)
Sen. Bernard Sanders (I, VT)
So chosen as they are the only ones who did their fucking job as a check for the executive branch and voted against the outrageous “National Defense Authorization Act.”

Seriously, if your Senator isn’t on this list you owe them a stern-as-fuck-ly worded letter voicing your displeasure.
Also, you could hit up your representative to ensure that this bill doesn’t make it any further than our largely worthless Senate.
