Seven Prayers to Cathy McMorris Rodgers

It’s all hands on deck to get the country we deserve— enough with the immoral hypocrites trying to control our bodies, our love, and our livelihoods while they look the other way from the festering mobster at the top, the gun money, the pharma money, the barrels and barrels of money!

It is with urgency we invite you to listen and SHARE for free the voice of Kate Lebo— her reasonable, bright voice clearly taking to task her representative, Cathy McMorris Rodgers, of Washington State’s Fifth Congressional District.

This download is FREE.  We have also posted the entire set on Soundcloud if that makes it easier for you share our indignity— but also her joy, her humor and our hope for a new day for Eastern Washington!
