Emailed State Rep. Beth Fukumoto (R-Hawaii) with words of supprot for standing up to her party when she was ousted as minority leader for attending the Women's March. In her words:

"They told me they would keep me in this position if I would commit to not disagreeing with our president for the remainder of his term. Mr. Speaker, I'm being removed because I refused to make that commitment, because I believe it's our job as Americans and as leaders in this body to criticize power when power is wrong."
