Abigail Washburn

Basil Bunting
I really don't like to tweet or Instagram anything about the people in my life just because I feel like I signed up for this, and I don't even know what this is yet.

I take my 'advice and consent' duty as a U.S. senator very seriously.
Informed consent is required for every invasive medical procedure, from getting your ears pierced to having an abortion.

There were good-faith reasons to resort to extraordinary measures when confronting an unknown global pandemic. Most of us consented to the lockdown, even if reluctantly. However, that consent - freely given as an act of social solidarity - was not intended as a green light to giving up hard-won liberties, or a perpetual suspension of free society.
If you look at the Constitution, the two clauses of the Constitution make it very clear the president shall nominate, and the Senate shall provide advice and consent. It's been since 1888 that a Senate of a different party than the president in the White House confirmed a Supreme Court nominee.

You have to look at what the United Nations Declaration of Rights of Indigenous people says which is free and prior informed consent.
