Note: I received two responses today - one from each Pennsylvania Senator.
This is John Fetterman's:
Thank you so much for reaching out to my office. I appreciate hearing from you.
I believe that Pennsylvanians deserve a strong voice in Washington, so hearing from constituents like you about these critical issues is essential to my work. I’m here in D.C. fighting for solutions that deliver real results for Pennsylvanians and every corner of our commonwealth. As long as I’m your senator, that’s what I’ll always do.
Thank you again for contacting me to share your thoughts. Please do not hesitate to reach out in the future about other issues of importance to you. If I can be of assistance, or if you’d like to learn more about my work on behalf of Pennsylvanians and our commonwealth, I encourage you to visit my website, https://www.fetterman.senate.

If you've been following my letters to Senator Fetterman, I've asked him a number of questions about Secretary Noem and the Department of Homeland Security and AG Bondi and the Department of Justice - since he voted to confirm each of them.
For instance, there is this letter about US Senator Alex Padilla being handcuffed and forced to the ground after asking a question of Sec Noem at a public press conference.
Or this letter about AG Bondi's possible ethics violations.
Or this letter outlining how Sec Noem stated that habeas corpus was "a constitutional right that the president has to be able to remove people from this country and suspend their rights."
Which is more or less exactly wrong.
He could have answered any of those letters. Or any of the others.
But instead, he wrote three paragraphs of mostly nothing.
Pennsylvanians deserve better. Especially now.
