My NINETY-FIFTH Open Letter To Senator Pat Toomey (UPDATED)

I'll be dropping this letter to Senator Pat Toomey in the mail today:
Dear Senator Toomey:

It's me, again - the constituent who writes for the local Pittsburgh-based political blog, "2 Political Junkies."

According to CNN, earlier this month the Senate failed to move on a resolution that would have stopped the lifting of sanctions of three Russian companies tied to Oleg Deripaska, a man with close ties to the Kremlin who the Treasury Department has been investigated for money-laundering, and accused of extortion and racketeering.

The NYTimes reported that lifting those sanctions could wipe out hundreds of millions of dollars of Deripaska's debt.

Given all that we now know regarding the Russia investigation into the Trump Campaign/Administration, and Paul Manafort (who, as I am sure you're aware, got a $10 million loan from Deripaska) why on Earth would you side with Donald Trump on this and vote in favor of lifting those sanctions?

Thank you and I await your response.
And I will be posting whatever response I get from him or his office.

UPDATE: This letter was answered here. Follow-up:

    "Given all that we now know regarding the Russia investigation into the Trump Campaign/Administration, and Paul Manafort"
    What do we know regarding the Russia investigation/witchhunt into the Trump Campaign/Administration?

    Paul Manafort plead guilt to tax and bank fraud not election fraud or espionage.
