Watch Sen. Merkley on the Senate floor in the player above
PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Oregon Sen. Jeff Merkley is holding the floor of the Senate to denounce authoritarianism.
In a statement, Merkley said:
“I’m speaking on the Senate floor right now to ring the alarm. From deploying the National Guard in our cities to defying court orders and shutting down the government to attack health care, Trump is testing how far he can go. He’s trying to make Americans accept his total control as the new normal. Over the weekend, more than 7 million Americans joined No Kings protests across the country — a clear message that we refuse to let Donald Trump’s authoritarian takeover go unchecked.”
Merkley intends to hold the floor of the Senate for as long as he can.
