Nope. This is anti-Democratic propaganda that is meant to target outspoken progressive WOC, like Sheila Jackson Lee, Karen Bass, AOC, Ayanna Pressley, Rashida Tlaib, Val Demings, as well as some men: Schiff, Lieu, Jeffries and Swalwell. Also, senators *are* national figures.

Beware people who want to silence the voices of WOC, who currently represent the largest phalanx of progressives in the House. Also, if you don't understand that senators are supposed to coalesce around NATIONAL issues and proffer laws to address same, you need a civics class.
The LEGISLATIVE branch is supposed to legislate. It is a factor of Americans' limited political and historical knowledge that some regularly claim that members of Congress should be silent. We don't have a parliamentary system--outspoken MOC get laws passed and change made.
So I called this false messaging out earlier, and rather than respond to the issues addressed--misunderstanding the role of Congress and targeting WOC--they just blocked me. Calling out racism is always treated as worse than actual racism and racists. 
Every other tweet in this white woman's TL is an attack on a woman of color. You can follow folks like that if you choose, but I am anti-racism and anti-racists. And will always call both out, regardless.
